I've seen the other question on here about loading jQuery in a Greasemonkey. Having tried that method, with this require statement inside my ==UserScript==
tags:
// @require http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js
I still get the following error message in Firefox's error console:
Error: Component is not available
Source File: file:///Users/greg/Library/Application%20Support/
Firefox/Profiles/xo9xhovo.default/gm_scripts/myscript/jquerymin.js
Line: 36
This stops my greasemonkey code from running. I've made sure I included the @require
for jQuery and saved my js file before installing it, as required files are only loaded on installation.
Code:
// ==UserScript==
// @name My Script
// @namespace http://www.google.com
// @description My test script
// @include http://www.google.com
// @require http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js
// ==/UserScript==
GM_log("Hello");
I have Greasemonkey 0.8.20091209.4 installed on Firefox 3.5.7 on my Macbook Pro, Leopard (10.5.8). I've cleared my cache (except cookies) and have disabled all other plugins except Flashblock 1.5.11.2, Web Developer 1.1.8 and Adblock Plus 1.1.3.
My config.xml
with my Greasemonkey script installed:
<UserScriptConfig>
<Script filename="myscript.user.js" name="My Script"
namespace="http://www.google.com" description="My test script" enabled="true"
basedir="myscript">
<Include>http://www.google.com</Include>
<Require filename="jquerymin.js"/>
</Script>
I can see jquerymin.js sat in the gm_scripts/myscript/
directory.
Additionally, is it common for this error to occur in the console when installing a Greasemonkey script?
Error: not well-formed

I found a non-ideal way to use it with jQuery 1.4.1 -- this seems to fix it. It's the new browser sniffing that seems to "break" it.
jquery-1.4.1.min.js:
[old] 36: var o=r.createElement("div");n="on"+n;var m=n in o;
[new] 36: var o=r.createElement("div");n="on"+n;var m=true;
jquery-1.4.1.js
[old] 934: var isSupported = (eventName in el);
[new] 934: var isSupported = true;
Ok, so i looked into this a bit more deeper. I used your script exactly, but used our JQuery version, making it look like this:
// ==UserScript==
// @name My Script
// @namespace http://www.google.com
// @description My test script
// @include http://www.google.se/*
// @include http://www.dn.se/*
// @require http://myserver/jquery-1.3.2.js
// ==/UserScript==
GM_log("Hello");
This works just fine for me, my guess, the JQuery up on the google api is missing some functions. Because this code above, works just fine. Also note the /*
at the end of each url, please include that.
Try another JQuery and change the urls and it should world properly.
I was stumbling around trying to deal with this issue with GM 0.8 and jquery 1.4.2 and found this: http://forum.jquery.com/topic/importing-jquery-1-4-1-into-greasemonkey-scripts-generates-an-error
It looks to me like the definitive answer to the question and how to work around it. The workaround worked for me.
