while
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0059431/

also, as a little bug report for firefox on macintosh, the questionmarc-picture on the settings dialogue is not shown, as it is, on the windows version.

movie wrote:Bug:
Since the addon currently relies on the My Movies (all) page, it doesn't work if in the display options of that list "Show" isn't set to "All titles". (For example, set it to "1 title" and open any title included in your MyMovies. The addon won't show which lists it's included in.) The way to fix this is to ignore the user's setting by using this special URL instead: http://www.imdb.com/mymovies/list?a=1 (which force-loads all titles).
Since this bug is extremely easy to fix with the above information, I hope you'll upload the fixed version of the addon soon...


Hey, fixed the two bugs. I noticed now some other possible bug. If you set the title's link to go somewhere else instead of the main movie page, sometimes there will be no link and that will cause problems for the extension.
How did you find out about the "?a=1"? Do you know a way to enforce the title link pref too?

small hint: don't position your mouse over bold text

Post by usernames_r_always_taken »

Hi,
maybe this is useful for some of you.

A trick, which i just discovered yesterday, after a lot of months of using this fine plugin, is, that if you're on a google resultpage, you HAVE to position the mouse over the date in brackets i.e (1998) or a textpart which isnt BOLD.

If i position the mouse over a textpart, which is BOLD, the popup does not show up.

If i position the mouse instead over the date, its showed.... tricky...

This should be something which could be set up in the settings of the plugin.
