Hi,

I've often wondered why Newzbin has direct links to IMDB, but none to
rottentomatoes... Looking at the RT website they have a "deep linking"
facility that should make linking easier than I first thought...

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/help_desk/webmast...

e.g (taken from link above)

-----------------------------------

Mad Max: http://www.imdb.com/Title?0079501

Using the IMDB ID number, "0079501", you may access the Rotten
Tomatoes Mad Max page using the following URL:
Mad Max: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/alias?type=imdbid...

Essentially, you simply need to replace the IMDb-assigned ID value at
the end of the URL.

-----------------------------------

It seems like a simple text/string modification and you're away :)
Would this be easy to create into a greasemonkey script? Adding an
extra button left of the movie title (next to the IMDB globe link, for
example), or failing that just replacing the IMDB link already
supplied with an Rotten Tomatoes one.

I am completely new to programming/scripting in general so if anyone
could help with advice/first steps etc... I'd be very grateful... In
principal it seems it would be very easy to make but I have no idea
where to start!

Thanks,
Dawson
