Screen shots (again)

Thanks. That's much easier. I had set (Allow scripts to) Disable or replace context menus for something else, and then forgot about it. JavaScript is wonderful, but it's making things difficult for my tired old brain. :-\
--- Quote ---You could also try getting people images from other sources. I get my posters and images mainly from Kinopoisk as they have a good quality selection of images in there database.

And I suppose for the same reason, it never occurred to me images are the same in any language. :D
But I must be doing something wrong with the Kinopoisk script. It seems to consistently get the search page URL, where the target heads the list as the only "most likely" item, but is never selected. For example, it gets http://www.kinopoisk.ru/index.php?level=7&m_act%5Bwhat%5D=actor&m_act%5Bfind%5D=Adam+Arkin/ instead of http://www.kinopoisk.ru/level/4/people/11757/. And therefore, of course, does not return a photo. I'm using kinopoisk_person.psf version 0.1.0.12.

Hmmmm... I did say that didn't I?
I have a significant list of sites to grab images from that I was going to download / rename files / upload to database, but since I have to program that anyway, I'll give the scripting language a try. From what I've seen in the script forum, and in the script directory, it looks quite straight forward.
When a script has been completed, is there a way to provide extra information other than the url in the plug-ins directory? For example, some of the sites have HUGE files and others contain nudity. Something like "HiRes" / "PG rated"?
Anyway, this should keep me "out of your hair" for a while.

One last thing before I get to work.
Can a script run SQL queries? If I parse a page that say "john doe" in "some movie", can I check to see if the john doe in my database is in fact in that movie?

No, scripts can't do that. With plugins you can execute SQL queries, but there is no possibility to retrieve selected items, so this functionality is only limited to writing to the database.
