'open in tabs' subbed list?

flogen · 11-09-2005 9:43pm #1

Would it be possible to add a function at the end of the subbed list to open all forums in tabs for us firefox, opera etc. users? It would be a nice and handy way to check all the forums on a subbed list rather than selecting them one by one.

Is that even possible to script?

An RSS feed for your subbed list would be incredibly handy... That way we can have a livemark in our Links bar and scroll wheel click it to open in tabs

I have no idea, but if not steveland's idea would be equally useful and certainly seems possible.

<html>
<script language="javascript">

netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalXPConnect")

const windowMediatorIID = Components.interfaces.nsIWindowMediator
const windowMediator = Components.classes
   ["@mozilla.org/appshell/window-mediator;1"].getService(windowMediatorIID)
const topWin = windowMediator.getMostRecentWindow("navigator:browser")
topWin.getBrowser().addTab("WEBSITE1")
topWin.getBrowser().addTab("WEBSITE2")
topWin.getBrowser().addTab("WEBSITE3")

netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.disablePrivilege("UniversalXPConnect")
</script>
</html>

All you have to do is insert you own websites, and save it on your pc as .html and bookmark it.

It will ask for permission to run the first time, just set it to allow all the time and it will work perfectly.

Why don't you just stick them into a folder on your toolbar and right click the folder to open in tabs?

No topics remain "new" after the initial tab is opened. Therefore, on subsequent tabs, I can't tell what I've read.

That shouldn't usually happen, but if it does, then Giblet's script will also do the same thing.

Giblet,

You are a legend. That is going to make things a lot easier.
