Verifex's GM Script Discussion (in General)

2) Restart Firefox.

3) Open this link in a new window/tab : http://defhoboz.biz/misccb2enhancements.user.js

4) Close that window/tab which had the script.

5) Refresh the sidebar. Right click - > This Frame - > Reload Frame.

read the question mark button, before you ask questions in forum/chat :)
sorry the actual links from forum didn't seem to work, so C&P :P

In Firefox, go to Tools|Extensions, select GreaseMonkey, click Options, select "Misc CB2 Enhancements", and click Edit. This should cause the script to open up in a text editor. (If not... you can figure it out! :P) Now search for the following bit of code:

 // load up bookmarks (favorites) and training sets
  loadfavs();
  loadtrains();
 

  // load up bookmarks (favorites) and training sets
   loadSpecial("/shared/community-member.tcl?user_id=1613","Maelstrom");
   loadSpecial("store.tcl?item_type=weapons","Weapons");
   loadfavs();
   loadtrains();
 

Now we need to add the code for this method. From the lines you just added, scroll down a bit until you see the following:

  if (p.match('.sidebar.'+ft)) {
    buildGMSidebar();
  }
// sidebar code end

function loadSpecial(link,name) {
  var spanner=document.createElement('span');
  var divs = top.frames[0].document.getElementById('favstore');
  var aer=document.createElement('a');
  var brer=document.createElement('br');
	
  aer.target="cbmain"
  aer.href=link;
  aer.style.backgroundColor="black"
  aer.style.color="white"
  aer.style.fontSize="13px"
  aer.innerHTML=name;
 
  spanner.appendChild(aer);
  spanner.appendChild(brer);
  divs.appendChild(spanner);
}

Now, save the file, and reload the CB sidebar in firefox. If Verifex's sidebar tool doesn't appear, you've messed something up. Go back and re-read what I told you :P If you can't figure out how to fix what you broke, re-install the script and try again.

Another thing. If you're like me, you have lots of vertical space in your sidebar. Verifex has coded his script so that after about 4 bookmarks have been added, a scrollbar appears, and you can only see a few at a time. To modify the code to allow more bookmarks to be shown at once, do the following: Open up the script (as above), and seach for "offsetHeight". There should be 6 instances of the in the file: two in the createTrainSet() method, two in the createFavLink() method, and two tucked away in the buildGMSidebar() method. So basically, three to limit the number of training sets to be shown, and three to limit the number of bookmarks to be shown. In each case, it'll look like this:

if (something.offsetHeight>50)

Any questions?
