Yes!Does javascript do that?
It's optional.Do you need a tool like greasemonkey to implement the script?
- If you have, you can set your script to run as soon as the page loads.
- If you don't, you must call it manually, either copy or paste the javascript: code into the address/location bar, or use a bookmarklet.
