hi,
I wanted to write my first userscript. At my first attempt (http://
crater2150.de/files/mirandagbo.user.js) I noticed, that it didn't take
effect, until I clicked a link on the page.
When I open a page, it does nothing, not until I leave the page via a
link, refreshing also doesn't help.
What's wrong with my script?

Thank you in advance for any help

I see nothing wrong with it and it works fine for me (FF 2.0.0.4, GM
0.7.20070523.0). What are you running?

The only thing I can think of is some other extension is messing
things up. The easiest way to check is to create a new profile that
only has GM.

though I can't think of any reason foran extension to mess with
DOMContentLoaded.

As a final resort you could try uninstalling and reinstalling FF.

After some testing it seems, that greasemonkey doesn't work correctly,
when Firebug is installed
https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/1843?id=1843&application=firefox

but it only seems to have problems with some functions, most of my
installed scripts work.

I've included your Firebug problem in an update to the GreaseSpot
entry on Firebug because others have found random errors when co-
running that extension. (so far all unexplained)

However when I tried to finalize my edits to the below sub-page I got
a 'Database error' page, so it might not be viable until the DB gets
unwedged.

I have saved my edits, so when I can update that page they will
eventually appear.
