This script is exceedingly cool (I'm donating!) but I was curious about one feature a few of my friends want: The ability to "freeze" the header so you always see it even when you scroll the page vertically. Why? because FB now puts notifications up in the header instead of the status bar. If you scroll the page down, you no longer see when you have a notification update. Freezing the header pane would make this always visible.

There is another script that does this...but it would be nice to have the option all in one script.

What do you think?

PS: I'm seeing the "can't paste" issue too in Chrome. Frustrating!

I put all the stuff I want as buttons on the bookmark toolbar. That way when FB changes or what scripts do or don't do, doesn't matter as much. "MY" user setup remains constant. I admit I can make a Notifications button to open a tab or sidebar one them but it won't light up as they come in so you know you have new ones. I use the specialized 1 column mode that is bare bones but I do recall that on the other settings the notifications were supposed to be move to where they used to be but where not.

That feature has been delayed, but I do hope to add it soon. #6

It's called a fixed header and once I move the notifications back to the chatbar it will be unnecessary, but I can add the option to fix the header in the next release. #4

It's a weird incompatibility with WebKit and I haven't been able to track down a fix yet.
