It is also known as\u00a0augmented browsing. As we know the Greasemonkey scripts are always\u00a0persistent, the changes made to the web pages are automatically\u00a0executed every time the page is opened; this takes place in order to\u00a0make them effectively permanent for every user running the script. This software is used to add new functions to web pages, fixing\u00a0rendering bugs, combining data\u2019s from multiple web pages and various\u00a0other purposes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to use Greasemonkey :<\/strong> The first step is to Install Greasemonkey like any other extension, In order to have the tutorial as well, you\u00a0have to install also, install stylish, in the same way you have\u00a0installed the Greasemonkey. After installation of this software all\u00a0you have to do is to click the links and the script will be installed\u00a0automatically.<\/p>\n<p>The original author is Aaron Boodman and the available version is 0.8.20090123 which was released on the 18th of February 2009 which is available\u00a0now in English and the operating system is Cross-platform. The Grease Script is used in auto fill forms, to alter the formatting of text, borders and graphics. Grease monkey can remove specific\u00a0content, such as advertising, popup, even whole sections of a page. Greasemonkey can even alter content and layout. It can add floating elements and make elements collapsible. Greasemonkey can add links,\u00a0buttons, or any other type of HTML element anywhere on the page. It can upgrade the content of pages by retrieving connecting information from pages on the same site or other sites as well.<\/p>\n<p>Greasemonkey script is similar to JavaScript for a web page, with some\u00a0additional privileges such as cross-site XMLHttp requests. When compared to writing a full-fledged Firefox extension Greasemonkey is\u00a0easier. Greasemonkey scripts are only limited for the sake of security restrictions imposed by Mozilla&#8217;s XPCNative wrappers.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested you can download the software <a href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/748\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greasemonkey is a powerful and easy to use Firefox plug-in that will\u00a0allow you to insert Javascript into the local display of the pages in your web browser.
