GreaseMonkey Scripts (Firefox Extension)


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any scripts for neowin or anyother useful scripts? If you don't know what GreaseMonkey is...

Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension which lets you to add bits of DHTML ("user scripts") to any web page to change its behavior. In much the same way that user CSS lets you take control of a web page's style, user scripts let you easily control any aspect of a web page's design or interaction.

You can do things like add a delete button in Gmail, Yahoo Launch in WMP, Remove any about.com results from Google results, Make sure Gmail uses secure connection everytime, Hotmail single window, plus hundreds of other scripts and anything else you can come up with using DHTML.

Well, I have it as an extension, but I rarely use Firefox.

I wonder how compatible userjs snipplets are with greasemonkey scripts though..

I though they don't use the same exact synthax, but I'm sure both could benefit from converting each others scripts.

I use it.

An almost official wiki-site is set up here with nearly every script that comes out.

I don't personally use any that interacts with Neowin, though. Mainly Gmail, flickr and then some other general ones.

"Give me back the web" has got a whole new meaning :p

Never could get it working. Might try again after the nightlys are where you can install extensions again. I can't right now.

Add notes to web page script.

"So I ran across this site a while back that let you create notes in your browser that could be saved, re-opened, even subscribed to via RSS.

Tony over at Ponderer.org has taken it a step further and combined it with Greasemonkey, the Firefox extension that lets you activate user scripts on just about any web site.

Using Greasemonkey, you can use the WebNote script to make notes on top of existing websites. This could be a great tool for designers who are reviewing concepts with a client or just want to make notes of something they see that they like. Check it out if you have a chance."

Opera 8 users should also have some GreaseMonkey support now:

More information about what compatibility you can expect, and how Opera is slightly different:

And just when I thought this couldn't get any cooler....

Platypus is a Firefox extension which lets you modify a Web page from your browser -- "What You See Is What You Get" -- and then save those changes as a Greasemonkey script so that they'll be repeated the next time you visit the page.

    • Here's what iPhone models support iOS 26 by Hamid Ganji After months of swirling rumors, Apple kicked off its WWDC 2025 event today. The event was mostly focused on a slew of new AI-driven features for Apple devices and the company's new operating systems, which carry the Liquid Glass design. However, iOS 26 was the flagship of the event as it posed to alter the user experience of Apple's best-selling product, the iPhone. During the event, Apple announced the list of compatible iPhone models with iOS 26. Here is the list: iPhone 16e iPhone 16 iPhone 16 Plus iPhone 16 Pro iPhone 16 Pro Max iPhone 15 iPhone 15 Plus iPhone 15 Pro iPhone 15 Pro Max iPhone 14 iPhone 14 Plus iPhone 14 Pro iPhone 14 Pro Max iPhone 13 iPhone 13 mini iPhone 13 Pro iPhone 13 Pro Max iPhone 12 iPhone 12 mini iPhone 12 Pro iPhone 12 Pro Max iPhone 11 iPhone 11 Pro iPhone 11 Pro Max iPhone SE (2nd generation or later) If you own any of these iPhone models, you can expect to receive the first iOS 26 public beta next month via the Apple Beta Software Program. Also, developers can already access iOS 26 beta through the Apple Developer Program. The stable version is expected to drop in September with the iPhone 17 series. The above list of compatible iPhones with iOS 26 also signifies the end of software support for iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR. It's important to note that these models might still receive security updates from Apple to safeguard the device against potential threats. Apple calls iOS 26 "our broadest design update ever." It includes significant upgrades and changes compared to the previous version, though the final thoughts about the experience will be determined after the first beta hits users' devices next month. iOS 26 is also heavily focused on AI capabilities as Apple has expanded the footprint of its Apple Intelligence suite to almost every corner of the operating system.
    • Thank you for mentioning Windows Vista in the title of a news article.
    • Let's be real. Part of the motivation of the UI change is to increase CPU/RAM usage, which slows down older devices and makes battery life worse, therefore tempting people into upgrading to the latest devices. We've been through this enough times to know that the iOS updates never improve performance. Personally I value battery life over eye candy.
