DOM Manipulation and Microformats

Download Firefox and the Greasemonkey extension. Read up on the DOM and JavaScript.

(a) Write a Greasemonkey script that finds all German “Postleitzahlen” (ZIP code) on a page, wraps them in a simple hCard microformat, and replaces them with a link to Google Maps to view the location.

(b) Write a Greasemonkey script that finds hCard microformat information on a page and reformats it: the name should be displayed in bold face red surrounded by a box, and the rest of the hCard should be displayed in red and not bold faced.
