Note: This plugin is still in alpha stage, and most likely has quite a few bugs in it .. you have been warned! ;)
Welcome to the first release of my first attempt at a plugin!
The bottom_bar plugin adds a fixed bar at the bottom of the browser with an auto updating notification and friends list.
The notification button will show red when there are new notices to be seen. When the button is clicked, the notice is cleared ready for the next update. The friends list auto updates with a list of online friends.
At the moment, the friends list only shows a list with a clickable link to that persons profile.
I have tested this with Internet Explorer 7, Google Chrome 2.0 and Firefox 3.0, and as far as I can tell it works ok. If anyone can test against other browsers/OS I would appreciated it. Also, please let me know if you come across another plugin that this conflicts with.
Some screenshots ...
(yes I know the notification area is showing the same as the main page .. it was kind of the point to show the notifications were in sync ;) )
