Hi. The preview that I've been getting for a couple of months is only the movie or actor pic. I updated to the 5.3 & I still am getting the same thing.

You need to click on the poster. It's a feature then enables you to toggle the textual area, on and off

Changes:
1. Fixed ratings (caused by recent IMDb changes).
2. Removed the new line in plot and minibio (caused by recent IMDb changes).
3. Set the font and color to arial 13 black. Solves unwanted style influence by remote sites. And more compact.
4. Added a mouse cursor on poster. Should clarify that clicking it toggles the text.
5. Pushed version to 0.6.x to "help" the users of the unofficial 0.6 version, to finally upgrade.

it's the same size of the text on the IMDb page itself. is it really too small?

Hi,

thx for this great addon. I'd like to report a few bugs I've found (v0.6.1, FF 3.5.7, M$Win7u):
1. The image preview does not show up, the icon indicates a broken img link. Anyway, I found out that when I click on the imdb link and open the page, where the poster is present, the next time I hover over the link and make IMDBP pop up the preview, the image is already there as it's supposed to be.
2. When clicking on the actor's name on the preview it's trying to open the actor's page with the originating page's URL instead IMDB. So shen I have a link on www.whatever.com/movies.html and click on the actor, it tries to open www.whatever.com/name/nm0000124/ instead of www.imdb.com/name/nm0000124/

I'm currently working on making the preview work with redirects and similar.
In the process I've seen I could go further and make the preview work for any kind of URL that contains an id of a movie. Is that something that you guys would want?
That means that even buttons of "Review this title" and similar, would initiate a preview of the movie. What do you think are the best limits (if any) for initiating a preview?

does this still relevant?
