Hey Greasemonkey and Opera users

Many styles are now available as user scripts. Styles that have user scripts available will have a “Load as user script” button them. Since Greasemonkey and User JS can only affect content, no application styles have the option. Also, styles must have one or no -moz-doc-rules (since Greasemonkey scripts can’t easily do separate things to separate pages).
Using Stylish is still the preferred method (because it doesn’t have to wait for the page to be loaded, it has better management, etc. ), but this will work for those who can’t or don’t want to use it. I intend to investigate a good way to make versions of styles for use with Opera’s user style feature. If anyone has any other ideas for applications to integrate with, I’d be interested to hear from you.

    Hey Jason,

    I’m submitted a style for the OiNK bittorrent site, Just Pink and Creamy, and the javascript doesn’t include the site, leaving it global. I made an sandbox copy — Oink - Just Pink and Creamy — and put all the CSS in one line, but that didn’t seem to fix the problem either. I’ve tried the moz-doc domain with and without quotations. I’ve tried explicitly writing the user script; that doesn’t seem to work either.

    What should I do?

    Regards,

    Niels
