Hi, I’m blocked…

Here’s what I’ve done:

I’ve edited the include to put this page:
[mail.google.com]

Then I’ve edited the signature like follows:
var htmlsignature = ‘–Rémi Montroty, SuperGeek‘;

Nothing works… but when I’m on the page, GreaseMonkey does say that the script is activated…

Help pls!

I’m glad that was the problem…if only everything was such a simple fix.

You were right. I was using double quotes around the entire HTML string rather than single quotes. Works fine now

I’m sure you’re just making a small mistake somewhere. One thing that you want to watch for that is a common mistake when doing this kind of stuff is that the entire HTML string is surrounded by single quotes. If you have any other single quotes, also known as apostrophes, in the actually signature itself it will mess up how it works. You can still use single quotes in your signature, all you have to do is put a slash (\) before the single quote…or you can just use the double quotes as seen in my example above.

Thanks for clarifying that. If the signature consists of just text then it works fine, but as soon as I introduce any HTML elements into the signature then it stops working. I’ll have to experiment further and see if I can get it to work.
