Userscripts.org

I've modified this script to do some useful things (for me) & thought I'd share. If these changes make sense to the developer, it would be cool if they were included in the official script so they will carry over into future updates.

What it does:

1. Changes the RT tomato icon link to be a search query rather than a direct link to the movie page, since in some cases a direct link generated by this script will not accord with the actual movie page URL at RT. For instance, the page URL for Moonlighting (1982) is http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1014215-moonlig... rather than the expected & generated http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/moonlighting/ . The script cannot predict something like this so it seems more useful to have a search link that will always return something useful rather than a direct page link that may give only a 404 error.
2. Also, when the script is unable to find the movie (as with the example film given above), I have caused the script to make a RT search query hyperlink out of the 'Unable to find' text rather than a direct page link, since a direct page link will only link to a 404 error page. More useful this way.
3. Finally, when a rating *is* found, I have hyperlinked the big rating tomato (pulled in by rotten_rating_image_url) to the individual movie page on RT.

This way, if the rottenTomatoesName generated does not match an actual movie page name at RT, the unable to find text will link to a site search. If the rottenTomatoesName generated does match an actual movie page name at RT, the big rating tomato will link directly to that page. In either case, there is always a link to the site search for the movie title available, the little tomato in the lower row of icons, so that there will always be a quick link to useful information even if attempts to find the movie's direct page fail.

In addition, I have changed the code in 'var rottenTomatoesName' to replace periods rather than stripping them, since RT expects underscores in place of periods in its movie page URLs. So a movie such as Life 2.0 needs to be Life_2_0 rather than Life_20. Then I have made a separate variable that doesn't replace spaces with underscores, since this is needed for building search URLs. I think replacing spaces with - (hyphens, dashes) would work too, but leaving them as spaces works just as well.

I've changed the code in three other places in order to get this all working. I'm pasting the complete code below. The old code is commented out & the new code inserted below it in all three places.

Cheers,
H.

Since search URLs at RT cannot have underscores, I have further modified the new variable I created not to make underscores out of spaces, periods, or hyphens.

var rottenTomatoesNameNoUnderscore = document.title.substring(9,document.title.length).toLowerCase().replace(/&/g, "and").replace(/('|,|\?|\/|:|\[|\])/g, "").replace(/^(the|a)_/, "");
