The pagerankstatus project (for Firefox and Mozilla)

Google Pagerank status:
Displays the Google Pagerank in your browser's status bar.



2007-04-19:
v0.9.8: code fixed (bug not displaying pagerank), cleaned and repacked for FF 1.5-2.0+

Download & install:

Firefox Google Pagerank extension


2005-10-19:
v0.9.6: repack to make it work with Firefox 1.5 beta 2
2004-11-29:
v0.9.4: little bug fix with url encode, and now compatible with FF 1.0
2004-08-20:
v0.9: many bug fixes and a new nice feature developped by R. Rajesh Jeba Anbiah.
new feature:
* display the google category, and you can directly open a newtab with that category.
* click on the pagerank picture: left mouse button will open the new tab window with the category, and right mouse button to switch the state (enable/disable)
* tooltip now shows only the category name, and pagerank number is displayed directly on the picture.
bug fixes:
* while in disabled state, firefox crashed when opening a window with a javascipt function and statusbar=0. it is now fixed.
* new filters for the 'locahost' and private ip adresses.
R. Rajesh Jeba Anbiah did a great work (thanks again :) ), and cleaned to code too.

v0.8: the enabled/disabled state is now stored in the browser's preferences. each new window will be opened with the latest state. you may have 2 windows, one with the pagerank enabled, one with the pagerank disabled.
v0.7: i strongly encourage you to download the v0.7.
* i implemented a dynamic cache to store the pagerank we already have from google, so that it don't sends the request more than once. (each browser instance has is own cache). there is no cache limit for the moment, so the cache will grow until you close the window. i may fix that if it's a problem but there is only 2 int stored per URL,it's not so big
* enable/disable the pagerank: you can click on the pagerank picture to enable or disable the pagerank. When disabled, the pagerank is empty, and tooltip='Disabled'; no requests are sent to google.
* i added a filter when you are on google sites, no request is sent. (the IE googlebar displays 0 anyway and it will not fill the cache for nothing)
* it seems that the IE googlebar cuts the URL when sending the request (http://www.foo.com/index.php?var=1& ... becomes http://www.foo.com/index.php?), the checksum differs and the pagerank too. now it is fixed.

v0.6: was a buggy version, see v0.7 for new features.
v0.5 for firefox (mozilla version coming in a few days)
* bug fix: there was a problem with URL containing a '+', i fixed the urlencode function.
* queries are now only sent for URL begining with 'http', n/a displayed for the others (https, ftp, file,...)
v0.4: a little bug fix, v0.3 were asking several times the pagerank to google. with v0.4, only 1 request on each location change. note that the request is also done on each tab change.
v0.3 is the first final version, showing the pagerank as the real googlebar. older version displayed the pagerank with a text, now it is a small picture (see screenshot section).

Firefox Google Pagerank extension


How it works?
On each location change, a checksum is calculated (thanks to theses guys who did the asm->php work : http://alex.vort-x.net/google/
then a query is sent to google.com, exactly as the googlebar. the result contains the pagerank.

thanks for your comments,

Gerhard Mack: well, the number is displayed as a tooltip when you drag your mouse over the pagerank picture.

Miguel: if you can tell me more, what exactly does not work?

[m]: you're right, i'm planning to do a mozilla version. i just need more time :)

john: thanks for reporting the bug, i released a v0.4 version. it is fixed now. (problem with the focus event)

Gadgey: there is no additional bar, this extension inserts the pagerank in the status bar. maybe if you do see the pagerank, you have to display the browser's status bar (menu: View->Status Bar, check it)

Works great in standard 0.9.2 window.

However, having it installed doesn't allow my custom chrome to load up (i've got a custom chrome setup for use in accessing our company's intranet). My chrome doesn't have a status bar, so maybe that is the problem.

One feature I would like for it to have is an "enable/disable" option. Maybe an option by right mouse clicking it or something like that...
Sometimes I dont want Google to know about some sites existence (developing, security, etc), and this would help avoid such thing.

Could you make it so it will charge de pagerank when you switch tabs _only_ if a request was not sent before ... for me it doubles the requests sent to google. Not a bad problem for me but multiply this for all the possible users that will get your extension and the useless load that will be put on google server

It took me a while to notice it though... the pagerank bar is grayed out, great... but would it be too hard to also gray out the "PageRank" text? I'm thinking it will be even more intuitive for newcomers.

Version 0.6 doesn't work anymore, on every site I get only an empty page rank result (no green bar and when I move the mouse over, I get only a small empty tooltip).

If I remember correctly, after the update (from 0.5 to 0.6), the page rank still works, but then I disabled it and now it seems to be broken (yes, I reenabled it :-).

BTW: When disabled, it should be grayed out or somethink else, not only a "disabled" tooltip.

Rene: yes it is already implemented for the next version, i wanted it too :) i had some problems with it in v0.6 and i'm testing it on different browser to be sure it's working before releasing it.

Steve: switching tabs should send a 'focus' event and update the pagerank. i played with 3 tabs, with 3 differents domains, on my computer it works well (Firefox 0.9.2 too). i tried it on a old computer (PII-400) and sometimes the pagerank won't update when switching tabs, as if the focus event was not sent. if i click within the tab, the pagerank changes. weird. reading the docs, i think i'm using the right method to get the event... i'll try to see what's wrong

But it said "sorry, the extension is for version 0.8 to 1.0" (or something like that.) So then I tried to install:

But got the same message. Nothing got installed even though each time the download manager said it was completed. Thanks.

R. Rajesh Jeba Anbia: no sorry, this project is only giving the google pagerank. and i think the category option has his place in the googlebar project for mozilla.

Rene (and all others): thanks for the feedback :) and thanks goes to the guys who did the desassembly and php codes which i used to do the project.

Yoki: well... i guess everyone knows the answer. if google ask me to remove the project, i certainly will. for now, this project is giving to google the same informations as the googlebar for IE, but for the mozilla users. Having more informations for a search engine service is obviously very important. This project does not hammer the google servers (only 1 request by url, and there is an internal cache). Number of requests to google is the same if you use IE or Firefox (maybe less, i didn't checked if the IE googlebar has a cache).
In the past, i understand that google didn't want to see the pagerank source code being public, but now things has changed, the code is public, and there is hundreds of websites and php scripts using it, based on the same code.

D C: weird thing, i used v0.8 too when i started the project. i've been sent an email a few days ago, same error too, he had to unzip the .xpi file, and had to change the minor/major version number in the install file. (maybe by setting minorversion to 0.7) ? can you try ?

Suggestion: As for Google domains, there is no need to check the PR for localhost and 127.0.0.x . I would like to see those domains also excluded.

I reverted to 0.7 because I cannot open new windows with 0.8. Maybe it interferes with other extensions.

Wouldn't install for me in Moz 1.7.1 - says my version is incorrect. I have general.useragent.vendor set to msie for some site compatibilites, but changing that to nothing still resulted in the same message - though I haven't restarted Moz after changing it. Will try and report back.
But I also tried installing this at work on Moz 1.6 and got the same error and that install does not have a custom general.useragent.vendor
Regardless, great idea and thanks!

i'm going to check what's wrong with the version number. don't have time for now, maybe tomorow or on next monday.

for firefox, did someone try to put 0.8.0 for the minor version ?

for mozilla, i really don't understand, since there is no install.rdf fill with the version numbers... be sure to download the mozilla version on my on page.

Definitely tried the Mozilla link, not the FF link.
Whether my general.useragent.vendor custom string was set to msie or not, it gave me version errors...WHEN I tried to install it from the web.
So I downloaded it, quit Moz, double-clicked the xpi, told Winders to use mozilla.exe to open it, and it installed successfully.
Seems to work fine so far for the few pages I've tried.

-thanks to nick stallman who answered me on the project owner mailing list- :

"Firefox 0.8 didnt support the new Install.rdf
Use the old Install.js system"

i'll have to rebuild a package using the old install system... the current version should work for v0.9+

stephane:
i mean websites with FRAMESETs (the html tag).
it always shows the PR of the frame page.
but, i realize this is the only way to do,
because there is multiple pages contained on a frame page, and this is impossible to chose only one (to display the PR) from all of these.
so there is no problem.

stephane again:
i discovered a very annoying thing (a bug).
pop-up windows which DOESN'T HAVE STATUS BAR makes crash Firefox (surely because the PRstatus has to be in the status bar).
this is done with the "window.open" JS function with attribute "status=no".
note that the attribute "scrollbar=no" is sufficient to remove the status bar.
you can see an example here:

He is doing a great work, code cleaning, new filters etc ... and we're currently trying to fix one or two last bug before releasing the v0.9 version.

and good news too, bug described in comments#77 by pablo (the one which crashed firefox) has been fixed :)

To use, remove line breaks, replace "$" with "less than" signs and save as bookmark. For some browsers you have to replace "%25" with "%". Removing "features=Rank&" gives more information.

Stephane: Thanks for the code. And a bug: The fragment ("#...") should be cut off before using the URL.

Really nice Tool. One reason less to use IE.

However I have a slight privacy-issue with sending a request to google for each and every site I visit. Disabeling PR is one click (good), but it is automaticly reenabled if I restart the browser (bad).

So my suggestion is that is remembers the last status.
Or are there already any hidden preferences for that?

Amazing estension. However, using Firefox 1.0, pagerankstatus v0.9.3, shows "n/a" for some pages ( , e.g.). Explorer with GoogleBar shows the right number (4, in this particular exemple). Use to work in Firefox RC1 (I think it was the 0.9.2 version). Could you check this out? Thanks.

i have just downloaded the new extension version of your homepage, and now its all right. The problem was, i tried to update the extension through firefox, but firefox didnt find a new version for your extension. So you have to update the firefox extension site in the next time.

Felipe: not all pages have a Pagerank. Pagerank n/a means, that this site is not known for google. Pagerank 0 means, that this site has either a badrank or very few incoming links, and so the site is listed at one of the last pages, but Google know this page.

Sorry for the delay answering, Stephane. I don't know why the URL didn't show in the original post (it was inside the "( , e.g.)").
Lets try again:
www.cenargen.embrapa.br/~felipes/
is one of the examples that doesn't show in Pagerank 0.9.3 but does show in PRGooglebar 0.9.0.24.
(there *should* be an URL above this line...)

Great work, to say the first words. Really.

And the second, I wanted to ask about one thing (I just didn't get if this is a feature or a bug;)): I installed 0.9.4, it works fine, but I have some mess with a tooltip. When there is only a clear page rank, without a category picture (i.e. on this page, PR=5), I can see the PR in a statusbar but in a tooltip it shows "n/a". When there is a category (i.e. on mozdev.org), the way in a Google catalog is shown in the tooltip. The question is: an "n/a" tooltip on "simple" pages OK, or is it a bug? Would love if the tooltip just shows something like "PR=5" on a "simple" page which is not in the Google catalog.

Thank you in advance for the answer!

StrangeSavage: tooltip is used only for displaying the categories... so it is "n/a" when category is not available. the pagerank number is clear enough (i think), no need to write it again in the tooltip.

Dear Stephane,

I am always late in answering... :-)

For some time, even v0.9.3 was working OK in the cited URL (I am continuing a message of 21st November). Now, even with 0.9.4 installed ,it is not working anymore. As in the previous situation, the rank shows fine in PRGoogleBar (0.9.0.24). I guess the "~" was not the culprit, after all. Maybe the scripts on the page?

I have successfully used the following on FIrefox 1.0

1. Page Rank in Status Bar
2. Page Rank in Googlebar for Mozilla

Often, both give different page ranks for the same page at the same time!

I compared this to the original Googlebar for MSIE and found the pagerank in Status Bar to be the accurate one.

Ben (188): This is quite strange. PageRankStatus uses "Rank:FVN", but Google's toolbar uses "Rank:"; that's why the difference. It is really strange as why the official version sends just "Rank:" only for your site. Can you please list other problematic sites?

Sorry. I'm afraid that's the only one that stuck in my head. I'm not sure what FVN is. Does Google use only "Rank:" instead of "Rank:FVN" for all sites or is this a peculiarity with my site in particular?

Ben (190): Sorry, I responded without proper analysis. Just checked that the recent official Google toolbar always send "Rank:" alone as they have downgraded the "Category" option ("Rank:FVN" is for both rank and category, previously it always sent "Rank:FVN").

Now, I'm 99% sure that Google is wrong; it should actually return same rank when quering using the parameters "Rank:" or "Rank:FVN"--but, now it's not the case. Also, I checked Google info XML file by totally removing the "features" param, it is holding PR 4 for your site. I'm almost certain that the one inside XML file may not be wrong. So, for the timebeing Google is wrong and moreover PageRankStatus is right:)

Nice feature but the following info in Mozdev's Googlebar options looks quite impressive (I already suspect the CIA behind G-Mail and the whole G-thing)

"In order to display pagerank values for a site, it's important to remember that the extension must get them from somewhere, and since the formula is so complex, this is usually from Google inc, via a script hosted on a third-party server. However, this means that whenever you visit any web page, the only way Pagerank can be displayed is by sending (along with your IP address) the URL of each and every web page you visit. The sites that these scripts are hosted on are both, as of this writing, separate from both the Googlebar project and Google itself, and so this means that is you choose to use these extensions, a third party will be given in essence a complete copy of your browsing history."

As someone posted before, it is quite a privacy issue.

Therefore:
1. How to uninstall PageRank in Mozilla?
2. If I click on the PageRank display in a browser and it turns to "PageRank DISABLED", does this actually mean that no information about our browsing is sent to Google or any other party?

Thank you.

I go to my extensions and under google pagerank 0.9 it says "this item will be uninstalled when you restart mozilla firefox" but it will not uninstall. I even did a system restore and that doesn't work. How do I get that out of my extensions?

For Category/Directory related posts:

Category/Directory is no more available with official Google toolbar (they did downgrade it sometime ago). pagerankstatus worked for some time as Google was still returning the Category info; but now they're not returning it.
