Hey Matt,
First of all, thanks for the great script. As soon as Leo recommended, I installed it.
As soon as I installed it, got my problem.
When I activate it from Greasemonkey, it hides all my emails in the inbox.
I simply can't see what my inbox contains, because it reduces the inbox frame to 2-3px in height. When I deactivate the script, the inbox is showing again.
Do you have any idea what's causing it? I also switched to default theme, I thought the theme is the culprit, but it still messes up my frames.

I'd appreciate very much a hint as to how to fix that.

Thanks again for the time you put into these little helpful things for us.

Have a good day,
Claudia

Hi Claudia,

I saw that happen with my All Mail box when I was building the script. The problem is the buttons are very difficult to target with CSS. Google seems to change up the ids at runtime so the ones I'm targeting must be a bit different than yours. The most helpful thing to do would be to edit the script and comment out the css lines in a process of elimination. If I know which one it is, I can try to find a better way to target it.

Thanks!
Matt

Thanks for this great script.

I also had the same promblem as Claudia, and I did as you suggested.

The line that is causing the problem is the 18th line:
css += "#\\:oz {display: none;}" // remove the lower Refresh button

Hope this helps you out?

Kind regards,
Gunter

Thanks for the help @Gunter. That helps a lot.

I've updated the script with more specific selectors. It might not hide all the buttons but at least it shouldn't hide your inbox anymore.

Can you fill me in on what version of Gmail you're using? Do you have the "older version" link in the header? Are you on the corporate version, perhaps?

Thanks,
Matt
