Firefox/Chrome Users: Get FR Tree View for Nested Threads on FR!

Some of you may know about this gem, but I want to make sure every Firefox and Chrome user knows about the beauty of FR Tree View.

I'm not taking credit for it, I don't know which FReeper wrote the software. But it's amazing! It makes following long, nested threads much easier. See a screen shot here:

Firefox users will need to install the Greasemonkey add-on. Google Chrome users may install it just by clicking the link.

Get it here: and click the "click here to install FRTV" link.

Internet Explorer users may be able to get it to work using the IE7Pro addon, but I haven't tested it to vouch for it.

You don’t need to install Greasemonkey on Chrome. Chrome has all of Greasemonkey’s functionality built-in. You can skip that step and go right to the installation of FR Tree View.

Good question, I didn't mention that!

At the top of every FR thread, you should see two new buttons.

View as Tree and Poster Report

Click View as Tree to engage FR Tree View for that thread.

You may have to use the latest (or even a beta) version of Google Chrome.

What is your version? If you click the wrench icon, click About Google Chrome, you will find your version.

Mine is 5.0.342.8 beta.

Ah the version might be an issue. I do believe I am using the BETA version of Chrome.

If you like this script and want to install it on Chrome, you may need to upgrade to the Beta version here:
