Since I like to whip up random greasemonkey scripts. I created a little script to display the login box inside the page on Avenue. It also edits a bit of the login form's properties to open the resulting page inside the same tab.

You will need Firefox/Chrome

If you use Firefox, you will need Greasemonkey (Firefox Addon)

After you've installed that, you can go to this page: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/86673

Or download it from here (first link): https://github.com/AfzalivE/My-GM-Scripts

And click the "Install" button and then "install" again when the box pops up. Load up the Avenue page to see that login box in front of you.

Lemme know if you have more suggestions for little things in Mac's pages. I could probably do the same for MUGSI.

Enjoy....or don't. whichever.

Update: Works with the new avenue design on Firefox and Chrome.

PS: I haven't tested it in Chrome, so lemme know if it doesn't work.

I still got another tab after logging in :(

lol post edited, somehow I wasn't getting that...but now I am too :p

anyway, this script is to prevent from that useless login popup. If some web dev knows how to force the page to load in the same, I'll update the code.

I'm not bothered about it so I won't investigate how to do that.

alright, updated. now it will not open in the same page.

You must uninstall the script and then install the new version, otherwise it won't work.

Works. Nice work

Very cool! Thanks for sharing!

Also did you know you can forward your emails on Avenue to your Mac account?

and then forward your Mac account emails to your personal email address, because apparently Avenue doesn't support forwarding to any emails outside McMaster.

Follow the link in my sig to forward your MUSS email to your personal email address.

and go to "Settings" > "Email" in Ave to forward email to your MUSS email.

Edit: Tested in chrome, not completely working and since using firefox still feels like going 5 years back in time compared to chrome I won't be able to use this :(

Pretty much my exact thoughts.

Nice work, pretty useful. Wish it could work for Opera.

^^
It can, google about editing Opera user.js
