    <p>I have an issue with Greasemonkey, it doesn't update my script automatically (probably because we don't want to add it to its UserScripts root, and it seems in this case it doesn't update it)... </p> <p>anyway, I was adding a piece of code (main idea from <a href="http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/20145" rel="nofollow">here</a>) to my script to check the script version inside the script and let user know if there is a new version available, and as if user wants to update it, if so it should open a new window/tab for script url (that it should trigger Greasemonkey to install it)... this is my senario, and it works perfect up to the point that it should open a new window/tab...</p> <p>here you can see the function I'm using:</p> <pre><code>function checkForUpdate(in_vid){ var plugin_url = 'https://MyWebSiteURL/MonaTest.user.js?'+new Date().getTime(); if ((parseInt(GM_getValue('SUC_last_update', '0')) + 86400000 &lt;= (new Date().getTime()))){ try { GM_xmlhttpRequest( { method: 'GET', url: plugin_url, headers: {'Cache-Control': 'no-cache'}, onload: function(resp){ var local_version, remote_version, rt, script_name; rt=resp.responseText; GM_setValue('SUC_last_update', new Date().getTime()+''); remote_version = parseFloat(/@version\s*(.*?)\s*$/m.exec(rt)[1]); local_version = parseFloat(GM_getValue('SUC_current_version', '-1')); if(local_version!=-1){ script_name = (/@name\s*(.*?)\s*$/m.exec(rt))[1]; GM_setValue('SUC_target_script_name', script_name); if (remote_version &gt; local_version){ if(confirm('There is an update available for the Greasemonkey script "'+script_name+'."\nWould you like to install it now?')){ -------&gt; GM_openInTab(plugin_url); //window.open(plugin_url,'_blank') //location.assign(plugin_url); GM_setValue('SUC_current_version', remote_version); } } else{ GM_log('No update is available for "'+script_name+'"'); } } else{ GM_setValue('SUC_current_version', remote_version+''); } } }); } catch (err){ GM_log('An error occurred while checking for updates:\n'+err); } } } </code></pre> <p>I tried to use GM_openInTab, but it returns this error in the console:</p> <pre><code>Timestamp: 9/27/12 9:55:33 AM Error: ReferenceError: GM_openInTab is not defined Source File: file:///Users/Mona/Library/Application%20Support/Firefox/Profiles/tonwb5lg.default/gm_scripts/MonaTest/MonaTest.user.js Line: 97 </code></pre> <p>I couldn't find any reference to indicate that GM_openInTab doesn't support anymore!</p> <p>I tried other solutions, using window.open and location.assign... both of them doesn't work because they shows the script source codes without triggering Greasemonkey to install it... </p> <p>I don't know if there is a way to update script using this method... I would appreciate if you share your knowledge and help me with my problem.</p> <p>Thanks for your time!</p> <p>P.S. My firefox version is 15.0.1, Greasemonkey version is 1.1 </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
