New Greasemonkey forums script by Ash_ on 10-12-2005 at 11:23 AM

It's just a basic one but i use it. basically what it does is change the search link in the navbar to a javascript link which brings up a box on click. like a quicksearch box. with a username and keyword search. but if you want to go more advanced just click the advanced search button and the old search page comes up.

to install, unzip. drag it into firefox and click Tools -> Install User Script.

you have to have greasemonkey installed for it to work though.

enjoy =)

:P
1) Should post as a direct link , zips are annoying to download.
2) replaces my search button which is highly annoying , it should find the link then use node.parentNode.appendChild(x) to append the link after everything like how my wyswigy menu is added.

other than that its alrightish

Could you please add a cancel button and a way for it to click search when we type something and press enter.

Apart from that this seems to to quite good :P Ppl are too lazy to click search ... enter should auto do it :-/


RE: New Greasemonkey forums script by -dt- on 10-15-2005 at 02:03 PM

to add the enter support its simple.
13 is the keycode for enter.
to add the enter to submit the form its quite simple to do just make this little modification to ash's script.
inside ash's script we would add something like this on about line 35.

code:

document.forms.namedItem('gmsearch').addEventListener('keypress',function(e){if(e.keyCode==13){test();}},false);

Ok thanks dt the edit worked [Image: msn_happy.gif]

And btw ... everything else is in small letters so i think ill editthis to look the same. Anyways .... good job and a good idea. It alwaysbugged me to click that member list thing and to load it. This isbetter. Now we should only be able to remove the member list buttoncause its redundant [Image: msn_rolleyes.gif] Add another button to the quicksearch box like the advanced search button [Image: msn_wink.gif]
