A solution against shouting (for Firefox/Greasemonkey)

Dominic Fandrey

For those of you who don't know, Greasemonkey is a Firefox addon that allows execution of custom JavaScript for web pages.

Because of the inflation of shouting here, I have written a small script that displays shouting extra small.

var tables = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
var table;
for (var i = 0; i < tables.length; i++) {
        if (tables[i].getAttribute("class") == "thd") {
                table = tables[i];
                break;
        }
}

function descent(node) {
        if (node.data) {
                var volume = node.data.match(/[A-Z]/g);
                if (volume && volume.length / node.data.length > 0.5) {
                        node.parentNode.style.fontSize = "x-small";
                }
        }
        for (var i = 0; i < node.childNodes.length; i++) {
                descent(node.childNodes[i]);
        }
}

descent(table);

    I'm afraid to say it's a little buggy. descent(table) might be executed without table being set.

    The bug doesn't cause any problems, but still:

function descent(node) {
        if (node.data) {
                var volume = node.data.match(/[A-Z]/g);
                if (volume && volume.length / node.data.length > 0.5) {
                        node.parentNode.style.fontSize = "x-small";
                }
        }
        for (var i = 0; i < node.childNodes.length; i++) {
                descent(node.childNodes[i]);
        }
}

var tables = document.getElementsByTagName("table");
for (var i = 0; i < tables.length; i++) {
        if (tables[i].getAttribute("class") == "thd") {
                descent(tables[i]);
        }
}

    This update gets rid of a false positive condition.

function descent(node) {
        var length = 0;
        var shouted = 0;
        for (var i = 0; i < node.childNodes.length; i++) {
                var child = node.childNodes[i];
                if (child.data) {
                        var caps = child.data.match(/[A-Z]/g);
                        length += child.data.length;
                        if (caps) {
                                shouted += caps.length;
                        }
                } else {
                        descent(child);
                }
        }
        if (length && shouted / length > 0.5) {
                node.style.fontSize = "x-small";
        }
}

var tables = document.getElementsByTagName("td");
for (var i = 0; i < tables.length; i++) {
        if (tables[i].getAttribute("class") == "bod") {
                descent(tables[i]);
        }
}

    you could get Keil to incorporate it.

    Incorporating it locally will have no effect on the IDIOTs screen.

    Sadly, the days when you could break into a company's web service without repercussions, as long as you didn't do any real harm, are long over.
