Hmm....
I'm in the process of figuring out with alert statements where the
error is (restarting did nothing) but there's a peculiarity: sometimes
the site i'm using this on displays a CAPTCHA instead of the normal
page (which is perfectly fine: i'm not trying to automate anything and
I don't violate their TOS, but other greasemonkey scripts would try
and "play for you"). The script works on these pages, most likely
because it simply try{}s and fails somewhere down the line.I'll let you know how my alert tracing goes.
