Usage

It is intended to be used by people with disabilities that cause them to get distracted by other content on the page.

These disabilities may include:

  • Dyslexia
  • ADHD
  • ASD

Instructions

###To install

  1. Add the following below as a bookmark. I find it works best if it is on your bookmarks bar.

javascript:(function(){function%20gapMover(a){var%20b=a.clientY;var%20c=b-GapHeight/2+"px";var%20d=b+GapHeight/2+"px";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.height=c;document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.top=d}function%20toggle(){if(fcsn===true){fcsn=false;document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.display="none";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.display="none";document.removeEventListener("mousemove",gapMover,false);if(document.all){document.getElementById("fcsn-c").innerText="Enable%20FocusIn"}else{document.getElementById("fcsn-c").textContent="Enable%20FocusIn"}}else{fcsn=true;document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.display="block";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.display="block";document.addEventListener("mousemove",gapMover,false);if(document.all){document.getElementById("fcsn-c").innerText="Disable%20FocusIn"}else{document.getElementById("fcsn-c").textContent="Disable%20FocusIn"}}}if(!document.getElementById("fcsn-c")){var%20fcsn=true;var%20fcsnT=document.createElement("div");fcsnT.setAttribute("id","fcsn-t");var%20fcsnB=document.createElement("div");fcsnB.setAttribute("id","fcsn-b");var%20fcsnC=document.createElement("div");fcsnC.setAttribute("id","fcsn-c");var%20body=document.body;body.insertBefore(fcsnT,body.childNodes[0]);body.insertBefore(fcsnB,body.childNodes[0]);body.insertBefore(fcsnC,body.childNodes[0]);if(document.all){document.getElementById("fcsn-c").innerText="Disable%20FocusIn"}else{document.getElementById("fcsn-c").textContent="Disable%20FocusIn"}var%20GapHeight=100;var%20fcsn=true;document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.background="rgba(0,0,0,0.7)";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.position="fixed";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.width="100%";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.left="0";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.top="-30px";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.borderBottom="30px%20solid%20rgba(0,0,0,.7)";document.getElementById("fcsn-t").style.zIndex="1000000";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.background="rgba(0,0,0,0.7)";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.position="fixed";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.width="100%";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.left="0";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.paddingTop="30px";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.borderTop="30px%20solid%20rgba(0,0,0,.7)";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.height="100%";document.getElementById("fcsn-b").style.zIndex="1000000";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.borderRadius="3px";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.border="1px%20solid%20#ccc";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.background="#56b3e6";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.display="inline-block";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.right="10px";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.padding="5px%2010px";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.cursor="pointer";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.zIndex="1000002";document.getElementById("fcsn-c").style.position="fixed"}document.addEventListener("mousemove",gapMover,false);document.getElementById("fcsn-c").addEventListener("click",toggle,false)})();

###To use

  1. Browse to your website of choice.
  2. Activate bookmark.
  3. Enjoy.

Browsers

It works, in principle, in:

  • Internet Explorer 9
  • Google Chrome (latest - 22)
  • Firefox (latest - 16)
  • and probably other standards compliant browsers.

Please submit an issue if there are any websites or browsers which it is not behaving in. I will try to fix the issue or give an alternative. I am not intending to support anything below IE 8.

Roadmap

  1. Remove dependance on jquery [done!]
  2. Browser testing
  3. Customisable
