I just upgraded Mozilla to 1.75. I tried your link on the install page. I get the install pop-up. After I click install I get an "install script not found" error.

Fixed now, sorry about that. Please try again, just tested with Mozilla on Linux. Had made some changes to support FireFox's auto-update mechanism and left out the Mozilla install script during packaging. Thanks for the report.

I installed RPXP on Friday. Today, I tried it out--and it seemed to work. However, upon refreshing, I lost all the links I had marked.

Also: Is it possible for a future edition to have multiple colors available? I'd like to be able to mark local DailyKos users, those who write energy diaries, etc. and expanded color coding would help greatly. Thanks!

Links are now being colored again--not sure what happened there, although it seems to be related to my using ReloadEvery.

Having the ability to flag in multiple colors is still high on my wish list, though. Thanks!

Aaaack! I've tried for almost two weeks now to load the page where the installation is, and I've tried it on two different computers, and I just can't get to the page. My browser just sits there and sits there and finally tells me that it failed to load the page. WHAT am I doing WRONG??

What on dKos does this use to identify the users you want to tag? I'm curious to find out if this is usable on any Scoop site, as I'm one of the Scoop developers :-)

[I thought about going back to the old dKos diary thread to post this, but decided to come here instead]

I think I've spotted another common thread in the cases where RPXP isn't working for me: If I load a new dKos page in a background tab, RPXP almost always fails to color in the names; on the other hand, it almost always works when loading in new dKos pages in foreground tabs. This extends to cases where I change tabs while the page itself is still loading.

I'm a strongly antiwar person who voted Green, and talked about voting Green repeatedly, on Kos last summer and fall.

I got troll-rated by many *blind Democrats* who accused me of being a Republican in disguise when I pointed out Kerry's hypocrisies on Iraq.

So, I'd have to say I'm both very leery of a website like this, and also, I really don't give a rat's #*£%+& precisely because of previous misratings I got at Kos.

Subject: That color-tag extension of yours is phenomenal


Hi --

I posted on a thread at Daily Kos this comment, following one of your posts:

(wow- what a beautiful extension) (none / 0)

(this is one of the most practical and innovative Firefox extensions yet. really brilliant. great work. send me an email please at: rh at deanport dot com )


I am a UI/ user-experience design/ info-design guy and it is RARE that I see something new in terms of functionality that is more than a clever widget or convenience tool . Though all innovation is valuable and I appreciate so much the whole open source movement, YOUR extension really boggles my mind.

I'm not a tech, so I am not quite sure how you have done this, but I find it remarkable. So i wanted to write to tell you that.

Is there any way to make RPXP compatable with the firefox extension 'auto copy' (automatically copies any text that's highlighted)? Perhaps by changing the addition of div tags when pasting from rather than with coping to the clipboard?

Otherwise great idea!

Mine's failing to color names with comments, though it works fine for diaries and FP posts.
