I’ve been waiting for weeks for my jQuery Firefox extension to be granted. I think I’m going to put up a test version tonight and blow off Mozilla for their slowness.

Greasemonkey should allow you to define ‘global includes’ for stuff like jQuery and any other common code.

Greasmonkey und jQuery gemeinsam auf fremden und eigenen Webseiten nutzen…

Mit Greasemonkey lassen sich innerhalb von Firefox beliebige Webseiten verändern und mit zusätzlichen Funktionen an die eigenen Wünsche anpassen. Oftmals möchte man dabei auch ein Javascript-Framework, wie jQuery, mit einbinden, um …

Folks,

I have been playing with various options of using jquery with greasemonkey and I just couldn’t
convince myself that loading jquery from http: url is the best way to do this.

I tried loading jquery.js from chrome: URL but it just doesn’t work.

Anyway, finally I have come to the conclusion that greasemonkey should support ‘runtime scripts’
just like user scripts, but runtime scripts should be loaded in the context of user scripts that need the runtime.

So the user script could have an include such as:
// @runtime jquery.js|http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.pack.js

which tells greasemonkey to load jquery.js in the context of this user script, and if jquery.js is not available
to download it from the URL. This would load the http: url only once and after that, it will be loaded locally.

But, before I implement that, I have created a special build of greasemonkey which has been built with jquery.js and allows any user script to use jquery seamlessly.

You can download the extension from here: http://monkey.coolspacer.com/

Comments and feedback welcome. If someone has a better idea to support different runtimes, I would love to hear it.

Thanks for that, Rocco. I’ve updated the entry. Still, that’s the line that I said should be changed to point to your own version of jQuery anyway. ;)

hi
this does not work now: GM_JQ.src = ‘http://jquery.com/src/jquery-latest.js’;
this is correct: GM_JQ.src = ‘http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.pack.js’;

In order to not slam jQuery.com I have created a altered jQuery to work with greasemonkey. Enjoy!
