10 more search results
Thought I should share a fun little greasemonkey script that puts twitter-like MORE button (hm, maybe should've named it MOAR
) at the end of the Yahoo search results. Clicking the button gives you 10 more results without a page refresh. Neat.
Download: userscripts.org
and a 39 seconds demo...

What effect does this have on the default pagination?
If you search and it delivers results 1-10, then you click the ajax ‘load more’ link twice you have 1-30 right?
When you click page 2 or next page in the traditional pagination, do you get…
a) 11-20 (default behavior)
b) 31-40 (the same as clicking ‘load more’ once more but with a page refresh)
c) 31-60 (the same number of new results as you currently have (30).
PS – a, b and c all presume that a full page refresh would still happen with the traditional pagination.

it’s a) it’s just a simple hack
I thinks no matter how it works (a, b or c) it will be confusing when mixed with pagination. Probably why twitter doesn’t have pagination

Nice GM script, provides a really good user/search experience, however this is an ADs killer
unless you use position:fixed for #right column ADs and find a way to refresh its content.

yeah, but I think the ads at the bottom will be exposed more because of overscrolling

Nice script, now what about having it triggered once the user hits the page’s bottom?

DOM tree is getting bigger and bigger, I wonder if it gets makes browser slower and slower?
