special thanks to jsnj

Thanks but can't take credit for the JS code. That's from an old forum post from someone years ago that I had lying around. I'm pretty much clueless in JS.

BTW, you can avoid messing with the clipboard by just using the global variable $SelectedText. Resetting the clipboard doesn't always work. Like in the case of copied images for example.

Also, I couldn't get injectJS to work on this one. Hence the macro'd JS toggle dance for users who block JS.

thanks jsnj, i always forget about enabling it in case user has it disabled.. i hate js

i made an update with additional 2 lines
_{$_jscurrent=getpref(BOOL,$pref_JavaScript);
setpref(BOOL,$pref_JavaScript, true);}

disrupted, use this one since it doesn't erase the users clipboard nor require them to re-block JS every time they use highlight all.

cheers i've uploaded updated macro

I love what you do, dear disrupted, but give us a link or GTFO. >:-)

BTW, what's with the faded Mitsubishi logo?

i don't think so..though not unlikely since pops did own a galant at the time

atleast i'm not that crazy:




jsnj updated macro is in above link, it's the same as one attached in forum..only keeping the macros folder structure to make it easy to convert the extensions once we start using alain's extension manager

@ disrupted:
Remember ever you use the clipboard you must restore his old value.

Is very annoying to users lost his clipboard datas.

K-Meleon in Spanish

why?they can copy again
ok..i'll do that in the future

(hate you desga)

Is there any way for a making a macro that will higlight all capital letters on the page (not just at the beggining of the sentence, but at names, surnames, names of the books, movies, etc.)?
