Hi again, I was just having some problems with Google Images and Greasemonkey, and it turns out that your script doesn't seem to like the display of this page. The particular problem is that when your script is on, most of the images direct to a 404. I have no idea why this happens, though.

Also, if you change something in the script could you please also modify this one: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/76213 ? It's the version that I'm using.

Thanks a lot.

I can't reproduce the problem you describe. The script shouldn't even touch images, only text elements!? Could you make sure it's not something else that is causing you problems and provide the link to the site you are referring to?

Sure it's your script. It happens when it's the only one on (I've also turned off any add-ons that modify Google). Worse is, it's completely random. Sometimes it's just some links that don't work, sometimes all of them. It seems consistent when you do F5, though.

Here's the URL where I've tested it:

http://www.google.fr/search?hl=en&client=firefo...=

It's easy to see when it doesn't work: mouseovering images shows a white square.

I still can't reproduce your problem on Google-Images!? With Firefox 4 I've seen conflicts between Web-site-scripts and injected-scripts (e.g. on userscripts.org, when scripts are highlighted). I've no idea why this is, so I will keep my eyes open for solutions.

Kind regards,

Kim
