Amazon Wishlist Library Linky

Hi Kimball,

Sorry to hear it is taking so long for you. On my Comcast high speed connection it works fine.

Feel free to take the code and implement your suggestions. I think what you are proposing would make this script work even better.

You might also check out my Amazon Seattle Public Library Linky script that just does one lookup at a time and might work better for you.

mkbrandt,

Amazon made a chance to their page format. Should be fixed with the 1.1 version.

Site Meter Enhanced Details Page

Jun 19, 2008

Hi pbizzle,

It does work with the current version of Sitemeter.

I just noticed that it doesn't work if you are not logged in. I think that is what is causing the issue you describe. So, just click on one of the links on the left (as you note, the top part is still removed so you can't login from there) and then login.

Thanks for the props. I too couldn't imagine using Sitemeter without it. :)

"Scrap All" Defense Plan

A couple of suggestions for the front page:

1) Can you say something like "userscripts is a collection of Greasemonkey scripts", and then give a link to Greasemonkey's site and a link to install Greasemonkey? Right now greasemonkey isn't mentioned at all and it needs to be.

2) The current way "recent comments" is implemented isn't very useful as I have no clue who the people are or what they are commenting on. Could you change it to show the name of the scripts that have recently been commented on?

3) It will be more work, but having "top scripts" based on number of downloads over a day/week/month/ever would be very helpful.

4) I am not quite sure what "recent scripts" means. Does it mean recently installed? Recently added? Recently updated?

Also, on the script page, can you add something about how greasemonkey is needed to run these scripts? Lots of people click on "install" without first having installed greasemonkey because they don't know any better.

Thanks for all your work on this site.

Joseph,

Yes, you can change the libraryUrlPattern and libraryName variables to your local library and assuming they are using the same back end system it will work for you.

Rudi,

That is strange that it wasn't working for you and now it is. Glad it is working for you now and that is cool that you modified it for your local library.

Hi pogue,

I ran into that issue on 10/24 and wrote version 1.03 which fixed it for me. Upgrade to that, and if you still running into the issue let me know and I will look into it further.

Hi mmmike,

It is working for me on XP with Firefox 2.0.0.8. I don't know why it wouldn't be working on Mac OS X as well.
