New Firefox 3 Greasemonkey Script & Plug-In for Google Reader
Have just installed the new Greasemonkey script for Firefox 3 (and also tired the plug-in), but so far am still only getting the AideRSS pull-down menu (excellent, good, great). I'm personally running FF3 RC1 on OS X 10.5.3.
I'm assuming I should be seeing something else, correct?

Inappropriate?Anthony, did you install the XPI or the Greasemonkey script? Likewise, do you have GM installed?
-
Inappropriate?Have GM installed (yes), and tried BOTH the XPI and the script. Same result with each. This is the URL for the file I pulled down -- it is the FF3 Extension Beta 1, which Melanie posted.

Inappropriate?Hmm. Do you have firebug installed? If so, do you see any 'script errors' popping up?
We'll test drive it on one of our Mac systems and see if we can reproduce the error. -
Inappropriate?Hi Anthony -- Are you still seeing any issues with the official FF3 release and the latest Google Reader extension release?
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?Sorry for the delay -- I'm using the 2.1 Greasemonkey script and it works great. Any idea which has better performance -- the plugin or script? Not that it's proving any problem with the script; I'm just curious.
The integration is wonderful, btw. Absolutely love it.

The only circumstance under which one version or the other would make a performance difference is if you had Greasemonkey installed, but were using the xpi, because basically you'd be running two copies of the code. But running whichever version's appropriate for your Google Reader setup shouldn't make any difference. -
Inappropriate?Whoops -- found a bug in the Greasemonkey script that you'll DEFINITELY want to fix.
When you turn on AideRSS, you no longer see a highlight around a feed item in list view. So, when you use "j" and "k" to navigate up and down through feeds, you have no idea where you are. Normally, the item you're on is highlighted in the entry list.
Basically, you've blinded users (I'm running Firefox 3.1 on the Mac) as to where they are. Not so good. This is a pretty big keyboard shortcut feature in Google Reader.
Not clear if the same problem occurs with the XPI.
I might kill the Greasemonkey script and install the extension to test it out.1 Comment Add a comment

Okie doke -- is the highlight that was/should be there blue? (I don't often use List View so I don't recall.) There was one other issue earlier with j/k not working, but that's been resolved. I'll have the devs look into it.

Inappropriate?Highlight is a blue border around the entry item you have selected. You use keyboard shortcuts to move up and down a list of entries, with the blue border indicating which one you're on. You no longer see the border with the current version of AideRSS installed (either script or XPI versions).
