While coding up my own userscript for a quick reply mod, i googled for a little help on a javascript function, but what I found was basically an already working script.

Why try and reinvent the wheel?

I tested this and it seems to work so far. You will need Firefox with the Greasemonkey addon installed. You can get greasemonkey here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748

Once you have greasemonkey, you can install this guy's script from here

What is this greasemonkey, and why are there so many subversions?

Ehh I looked into it for like 3 minutes. I'm not sure if it's worth it to slow down my already slow firefox. (IE FTW!!!! (you would have never of caught me saying that a year ago))

Dolfan - greasemonkey makes it so you can put your own javascript onto any webpage. And to be honest, it would be one of the 3 essential addons i would ever recommend. Check out some of the scripts you can load in greasemonkey that do different things to popular websites: http://userscripts.org/

And for what its worth, in my opinion, it does no noticeable slowdown of the fox. Its the scripts that can... if ya try to load a huge javascript file on every page of a website, its going to get bogged down. (This quick reply script only loads on the viewtopic.php page and is just a small code snippet anyways, so it does nothing to the speed of loading the page)

Love it.

I was always part of the "I don't need Greasemonkey" crowd for performance reasons, but this is minimal.

So this isn't very scientific but..

Opened a blank tab with greasemonkey and I was getting around 50MB

Did it without and I'm getting 60-70MB.

For what its worth...

but with the greasemonkey…? I'll see what I can do.
I'm probably the least techy person on this board.

oh hey, it worked! now I just need to get used to using firefox again.
