Browservulsel: Form data rescue user script
It's unfortunate that this won't protect against the event of a browser crash, which is what I typically lose form content from. At least I assume it would not; the Greasemonkey config.xml is only committed to disk at successful closedown of the browser,

Feedback on this would have become a bit unwieldy in a pop-up form at Freshblog; I took the liberty of going for a complete <a href="http://ecmanaut.blogspot.com/2005/11/magic-delicious-json-feeds.html" rel="nofollow">blog post</a> instead.
Marc has cracked the Sidebar Menu!!! - Freshblog
You definitely should, Greg; you're an excellent designer and technical writer, beside your other skills, and it would help communication a lot. :-)<br><br>I'm trying to sum up this thread in a big blog post, to get some overview on it and much for reason

Striking results
I prefer shopping for hearts and brains in the deeper text trenches of the net, myself. In that respect, I'm hardly representative for neither males nor Swedes though, I'm told. :-)
Category Integration Between Sites - Freshblog
Regarding AJAX, I've been pondering a hack that pulls in posts from your own blog into something like a post archive, but it has the drawback on being rather reliant on your post template to work well. (Since you have to load, parse and splice the content
Category Integration Between Sites - Freshblog
You're very welcome, Greg; I'm much in favour of all of my improvements / tweaks going back into your mainline code, should you want them there.<br><br>I would only add support for picking up tags from "known" referrer tag schemes (scraping relevant bits
Browservulsel: Using CSS to display accesskeys
Nifty; thanks for passing on the tip; I didn't know about attr(), either.

Ajaxian: Getters and Setters in JavaScript
This may come out a bit harsh, due in part to the late hour. I always find it a bit unfortunate when influential blogs mention powerful concepts like these, though, without a context of when or how they can be put to good use, rather than making code hard

Blogger publish ping and categorizer tool
Interesting. A screenshot might be helpful, but I might get by on less; for instance, does your blog use the post title feature, or have you turned off the Title field? (The interception code adding the Tags field might need some revision to handle that;

Browservulsel: Blogger backlinks the custom way
How simple and robust it became if one didn't bother with the custom foldable bits Blogger offer for folding and unfolding the backlinks, which I took to doing of my own with what little Blogger offers in scripted provisions for that. I really ought to st

Love your work, Greg, and thanks for the beautiful tutorial; it's a very comfy way into the match indeed. One feature request: <a href="http://www.lysator.liu.se/%7Ejhs/blog/ecmanaut/2005-11-23/fetch_query_tag.txt" rel="nofollow">add an unescape() of the
Blogger Del.icio.us categorizer script
It's all CSS; these are the lines from my stylesheet which cover the tags section -- the ones you are particulatly looking for here are the display:inline; attributes:<br><br><tt>div.tags { margin:1em 0; }<br>div.tags ul { display:inline; margin-left:0;

Automate double password confirmation typing by means of Greasemonkey
I actually think it's both simpler, more robust and elegant to propagate the same event we got to the other form field -- that way, we don't have to figure out what the received keypress was supposed to <i>do</i> with the field, and emulate the same behav

Browservulsel: Blogger edit comments user script
Based on the idea of adding a column to the Blogger editor, I wrote a similar script to show the backlink counts for all your blog entries. It's available at http://www.userscripts.org/scripts/show/2185 and links back to the blog entries with the #links f

Fixing Blogger's post editor's keybindings
Interesting; I never actually tried them. :-) That might mean... ...yes. It's dead simple fixing it. Using this scriptlet, for instance: <b>javascript:Textbar.Bold=function(){ this.wrapSelection('<b>','</b>'); };Textbar.Italic=function(){ this

Google Print in Book Burro 0.17, and future library plans
Outbound links from these sites would be more interesting than inbound, I believe; both of these seem to be more aggregator sites than stores in their own right. I am still undecided about how to handle such sites in Book Burro; what information would you

Usable design is also about visually (and indeed texturally, audiably et cetera, as applies) communicating how each interaction device is used; in which manner you interact with it. I'm not sure how a blob on a map would tell you it's draggable, but it ou
