Is there the possbility to get the textual content of the clipboard to paste it automatically into a textarea clicking a button? Just found a method to copy data to it, but not to read data from it. Brock Adams No, you cannot do this in javascript because it has proven to be a huge security hole. Likewise, the developers of Greasemonkey are unlikely to add this capability for the same reasons. You can write a Firefox add-on that does this, but I've never seen a (legit) use case. A technique that works well for me is to have the Greasemonkey script set focus to the textarea (or input) and then

On a webpage there's <script> function fn982734() { // some code } </script> In my Greasemonkey script, I have the following code: var fn = fields[5].getElementsByTagName("a")[0].getAttribute('onclick').substr(7,11); console.log(fn); // outputs fn982734 to the firebug console window[fn](); This code does not work, and spawns an error in the error console: window[fn] is not a function. However, typing directly into firebug: var fn = 'fn982734'; window[fn](); works perfectly. What's going on? The Greasemonkey script is inside a sandbox and Firebug is not.

Possible Duplicate: jQuery in Greasemonkey 1.0 conflicts with websites using jQuery It appears that if any of my greasemonkey scripts have the line like the below i get errors on sites that include jquery. I'm not sure why but i do notice some javascript events outright not firing. (For example on SO i cant add a comment). I could exclude SO in the script but is there a nicer solution? Maybe i should dynamically add jquery after testing if jquery exist. How do I solve this problem and how do I add the jquery script tags to a body without using jquery? // @require http://ajax.googleapis.com

I made a script on my website that accesses a table on a different website. However, the other website is HTTP so chrome is telling me "This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS." $.get('http://www.kanjidamage.com/kanji', null, function searchKD () { /*function*/ }); So what I'm asking is: how can I access elements on a different website even if it's not HTTPS. You have this tagged as tampermonkey . If that is the case, use it. Tampermonkey allows one to bypass "mixed active content" restrictions by using GM_xmlhttpRequest Doc . So this complete Greasemonkey

There is a textbox that requires a date but has no date picker. I would like to add one with Greasemonkey. I looked for an example but could not find one. Is this possible? Is there an example for doing this? It doesn't need to be fancy. I like to use jQuery UI's datepicker() because I usually have jQuery UI loaded anyway, and it's fairly well-known/supported. Unfortunately, the datepicker functionality uses some criminally-bad event code, which requires a little fudging to work in a sandboxed environment. Still, its not too difficult. Here is a complete Greasemonkey script: // ==UserScript==
