i was wondering, is there an easy way for other gm scripts that generate thumbnails on pages to include the lightbox functionality from the greased lightbox script, maybe make a global function available via “unsafeWindow” that can be added to the thumbnails somehow

@ Peter – thanks for all of the suggestions. I’ll look into these things.

last thing, sorry. a button to zoom to original size and an indication that image is not fully zoomed is very important.

Also, there should be a link to view the image without the lightbox interface. Perhaps you should link the text beneath the image (and force a default) to the original image location.

really really great script. fantastic job.

one thing– it clobbers lots of other scripts. how can this be dealt with? i’m not sure when greasemonkey runs in the order of things, but if it is given a lower priority, you could just ignore images that already had javascript assignments attached to them? it would be nice if there was atleast the option to be more passive.

The lines of code where you insert elements into the page are bugged
For instance line 848:
objBody.insertBefore(objMenu, objBody.nextSibling);
There would be no problem when BODY is the last child of HTML and so objBody.nextSibling is null and your insertBefore statement just behaves like appendChild. But what happens when objBody.nextSibling is not null? You are trying to insert elements into BODY at a position in the DOM that exists outside of BODY

OK I have also an bug with GS in Opera (9).

Watch this video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5088756032932447070 (choose “Original size” in player – image has been scaled down by google :/)
Sometimes Greased Lightbox loads image but later it can’t do this.

Cache in my Opera is totally disabled – maybe this is the cause of the bug. I had enabled cache but… it hasn’t seem to be working.

PS. Sorry for mistakes, my english isn’t good.
