Basically, you're changing the contents of a published document, I can't see how you'd do that with a server-side script (on the host server at least). Perhaps if the folks at firefox would just make greasemonkey part of the default install there'd be less of a barrier here. Basically, I see greasemonkey as part of the glue that binds web 1.0 apps together to make them web 2.0 ;-)</p> I think you have to see it in action to see just why you need to download something (greasemonkey, to wit).

I love the idea - but there is something that just seems a little "off" by the whole thing. Maybe it's the fact that I have to download something to get it work.... Kind-of the opposite of what the Web2.0 is supposed to be about.....</p> <p>The end result (I'll take your word for it) is awesome.</p> <p>-CF</p> Your script looks simple enough - I see a lot of regex stuff happening.
