craigpreview

This is a greasemonkey script to make the description of links to postings be their description so that you preview the listing when you hover over the link.

In its current form you need to be running greasemonkey on firefox. If you know how to install these, here is the script.

   craigpreview.user.js

Usage

Once installed, here's how you use this thing.

  1. Whenever you visit craigslist and hover over a posting link, you will see the postings description as a preview in the tooltip. For example:
    (Apologies for the low quality, mac's don't capture the tooltips in screen shots)

Installation

To use you must be running greasemonkey on firefox. So, I'll mention both.

  1. Install firefox.
  2. Install greasemonkey.
  3. Go to the link craigpreview.user.js a click the Install button in the upper right. If you don't see this button you haven't installed greasemonkey correctly -- in which case return to step #2.
