Well, what is your question? Are you asking someone to write your script for you? Then yes, that probably is a dumb question. Are you, on the other hand, asking how this script would likely have to work? That's not such a dumb question.
General outline is to add a capturing event listener (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/element.addEventListener) to each matching URL at load (use XPath -- http://www.w3schools.com/xpath -- and in particular document.evaluate -- https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/document.evaluate to find the <a> elements in question); in the event handler, grab the URL in question and use GM_xmlhttpRequest (http://wiki.greasespot.net/GM_xmlhttpRequest) to get the information from the free website; parse and extract the returned information and display it in a tooltip -- I doubt you want a popup window coming up all the time, but a tooltip will work fine. Hope this helps. doudou1126 wrote: > I am sorry if this is a dumb question i am totally new to Jscripting. > > But i am trying to write a script when i hover the mouse pointer over > a link of the sort > > "http://xxx.xxx.xxx/ip=123.456.789"; > > I get the geo-location of the IP address (Country, Region, City), the > best free website that offers that is > > http://www.geobytes.com/ipLocator.htm, so the script would copy the IP > and input it into the website, and then displays the output in a small > window. > > Thanks, > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "greasemonkey-users" group.
