User:TheJosh/Scripts/Recent Change Patroller

To install, add the following to your skin.js page:

importScript('User:TheJosh/Scripts/RecentChangesPatrol.js');

This box has three settings. To use a setting, place the setting variable underneath the importScript line.

rcp_enabled

The default behavior of the box (enabled or disabled) if no cookie is set

Default: true

Possible values: trueorfalse

Example: rcp_enabled = false; To make the box not show by default

rcp_num_pages

The number of pages to show in the box

Default: 10

Possible values: Any number between 1 and 50

Example: rcp_num_pages = 5; To make the box show 5 links at a time

rcp_refresh

The refresh rate of the box, in seconds. Decimals allowed

Default: 5

Possible values: Any number above 2 (to not put too much strain on the servers)

Example: rcp_refresh = 10; To make the box refresh every 10 seconds.

This script has been known to work on:

• Firefox2
• Internet Exploiter6
• Camino 1.5.1 (or any other Gecko browser for that matter)

Other versions of these browsers, or in fact other browsers may work, as long as the browser supports AJAX.

I have only tested it on the default Monobook skin.

Thanks to jonny-mt for the Camino test.
