I've added accesskeys to this blog to enable easier and faster navigation. Added accesskeys:
I've fixed some of my user scripts for Greasemonkey 0.5.1. There were problems with the addEventListener function. I used it to execute scripts on window load to prevent Firefox from crashing on some scripts (which apparently was needed). With the new version of Greasemonkey that trick is no longer needed, and somehow addEventListener does no longer seems to be working on all users scripts in Greasemonkey. I haven't figured out yet what the problem exactly is.
Anyhow, you can find the scripts I've fixed over here:
The tags input field didn't have a tab index. This was annoying me for some time now. Tonight I had the time to update the Blogger tag adder user script (original post). I should have done this a long time ago, it was just to easy to fix.
I wanted to improve the buttons on the forms we use in web applications I was working on. Improvements I would like to make:
The best way you can do this is by using the button element. This method has several advantages:
button elements can contain HTML.
button elements can be styled on Safari.
Here is an example of HTML you could use:
<button accesskey="d" class="delete" type="button"> <span class="icon"> </span><em>D</em>elete </button>
I use the button for a default button background image and the span for an icon. Here is an example of CSS you could use:
button {
width: 100px;
height: 25px;
line-height: 25px;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
background: url("button.jpg");
border: 0;
}
button:hover {
background: 0 -25px url("button.jpg");
}
button em {
font-style: normal;
text-decoration: underline;
}
.delete .icon {
padding-left: 14px;
line-height: 25px;
background: url("del_icon.gif") no-repeat 0 50%;
}
I'm back from a rainy holiday. First thing I wanted to do when I was back home was improving the Blogger edit comments user script (original post). It had a few quirks and I wanted to be able to quickly and permanently delete unrelated comments. Here's the change list:
onclick which caused an extra window to be opened.
