Some sidebar changes under the hood (in Changelog)
AdminJonathan
February 17 2008 1:45 AM EST
Verifex has updated the sidebar with modern, more maintainable javascript. If you see any problems,
1) right click in the sidebar, choose "this frame -> refresh" or the equivalent in your browser
2) if you still have problems, close the CB tab in your browser and re-join CB
3) if you still have problems, describe how to reproduce it here, along with what browser you are using
Switching characters in IE6 throws a javascript exception.

Unable to connect to CB.

Enter no longer works for fighting. I am using the latest version of FX.
AdminJonathan

remember enter only works if the opponents combobox has focus. it's always* been that way.
*always = as far back as I remember

Hmm, I had to disable fex's script to get it to work again. Might just be a javascript collision.

enter is also broken for me, after I just refreshed the sidebar, so it may be related to the fix for switching characters.

> I had to disable fex's script to get it to work again
ah.
yes, I should have added "disable script" as step 2.5.

I have to concur. Enter doesn't work for Firefox 2.0.0.12 with no Verifex script.

I now have to disagree with myself. After several more reloads it works again.
Odd because I had reloaded before too.

i use both fire fox and safari (both the latest versions) becasue sometimes on im my desktop and sometimes im on my macbook. i get the same problems as ranger but that was a few hours ago. i will see if its still like that later. on safari the lines around "quick links" run through businesses and recent battles as if they are being crossed out. also when i switch from favorites to standard the favorites fight list does not change.

It now also works for me, after another refresh.

Please disable my script if you have any problems with the sidebar. I have a new version of the script almost ready, just have to put the bookmarks and training set stuff back in.
enter button disabled jsut now during fight breaks, using ff 2.0.0.12, on a side note, anytime i try to use Lorenzo to fight, i always get the page that says to wait or ill get a 10 penalty. makes him un-usable
can't change characters with firefox...

Works for me Pope. Have you followed the steps as mentioned above by Jon?

Does not work for me.
Same errors even after disabling greasemonkey.
QBRanger
February 17 2008 9:07 AM EST
Instead of disabling grease monkey, I uninstalled the old script and now things work.
c enter works for me until i do something like delete an opponent in my favs list. then it will not work and i will have to refresh to get it to working once again. i am on firefox, not using grease monkey or fex's script.

Enter to fight stops working after using Higher and Lower in standard opponents - works after frame reload, but still. Ffx 2.0.0.12, no other scripts running.

AdminJonathan
February 17 2008 10:38 AM EST
and yes, you'll need to force a sidebar refresh again to get the fix.
disabled greasemonkey, refreshed the bar. Still nothing here.
c enter is really broken for me now, the c works to advance the list but enter will not work to fight at all.
Latest firefox, several refreshes/closing and reopening browser/disabled and uninstalled script and I'm still not able to use Enter
AdminJonathan

checklist:
1) uninstall verifex's script
2) refresh sidebar as I gave instructions to above
3) restart browser
4) click fight
5) now arrow keys, c, and enter should work
if not then you did something wrong in steps 1-5.
if this does work but you have problems elsewhere please report the specific problem like dudemus did.
I went through 1-5 in order and even checked to see that firefox.exe wasn't running in the proc list. Still no fighting using enter.
(I've never had GM on this machine, so I can't uninstall the script)
a second refresh AFTER the browser restart made it functional
AdminJonathan
February 17 2008 11:03 AM EST
sorry, bug with my fix. fixed better. (this is why it worked after your second refresh, novice.)
fails again (until refresh) if you go to Standard list and back to Favorites
AdminJonathan
February 17 2008 1:31 PM EST
also fixed
Yukk
February 17 2008 1:35 PM EST
Not for me. Hit standard, then favorites = enter.
Hard reload, enter works. Standard, fav = no enter.
Quit browser, restart, enter works. Standard, Fav = no Enter again.
Still running no scripts and no grease-monkey installed.
A problem that I noticed last night, and tried again this morning, was when I changed characters the equipment screen did not change with it. I am running IE 7, no scripts. I have tried refreshing the left bar, and also closing and restarting the browser.
I had the same problem, but it's gone now.
viewing characters on the equip page:
Switching characters don't automatically switch the main window to that character you're switching to.

Got the same problem as henk bres...I found refreshing or clicking the equip link on the left bar does force the switch though.
If the setup of your coding is how I think it is, this should only require some moving around of a line or 2 to fix.

sorry if i did not get it. but where is the script.?
anthony i am not sure i understand your question, but if you have not downloaded and installed the grease monkey add on for firefox in order to use verifex's script, then you can skip that step in the list that jon made. it is not an integral part of cb but an add-on.
enter seems to work with the script now :) but only when you click fight first :)
