New site, new blog

, ,

Hello!

I have finally released my new web site, ROBO Design version 5. It has a completely new backend, new functionality, dropped functionality, and more. Me and my twin brother decided to completely change the structure of the site and make it more personal.

There you go: www.robodesign.ro.

The new site has a blog for each of us. So, I will no longer post "articles" in here. I will use my site. I might occasionally cross-post what's interesting for the My Opera community (anything related to the Opera browser).

Thanks for everyone who read my blog and/or posted comments. I really appreciate comments. :wink:

P.S. I am not leaving the My Opera community. This is only a choice for a larger audience: my entire site, not only you guys. :wink:

UserJS: ROBO Sticky 1.0

, , , ...

Hello!
Today I've finished my first UserJS for Opera 8+.

I named it ROBO Sticky (no good inspiration for a better name). To download, install and learn more about it, visit it's "oficial" page.

The script is based on "Sticky-notes" by Antonio Orlando.

I simply didn't like his source code :smile:.

It adds a lot of "noise" in the DOM and I don't wonder why some people already reported it breaks Gmail.

My UserJS is almost an entire rewrite only for Opera, but it can be made to work on FF. Along the way I've made a lot of improvements, too many to list (bug fixes and nice behaviour improvements).

My JavaScript console

, , , ...

Hello!

I took the time to tinker with one of the files that comes with Opera: jsconsole.html.

First thing I did not like with the JS console from Tools > Advanced is the window itself :smile:. I don't like my task bar cluttered and there's no way to 'move' that window inside the Opera window as a tab (like you can do with the Voice log window).

This problem can easily be fixed if I just open the file as a normal page.

Changes from original JS console file:
  • added a Reset button;
  • added a Pause/Resume button (sometimes I'm not interested of seeing 'real-time' all errors);
  • added time stamp for the errors (based on Andrew Gregory's JS console panel)
  • repeated errors detection

What's different from other JS consoles: detection of repeated errors. There are some sites with scripts that run over and over, if these contain errors, then the JS console can get overloaded. What I did is just output: repeated error #N with a link to the error.

Get the JavaScript console file.

To 'install' the JS console just save the file somewhere on your HDD and open it, then bookmark it. I also used a nickname for fast access (via Shift+F2).

Suggestions/ideas for improvements always welcome.
