Sorry... this is not "we" with respect to FT. This is "we" with respect to my company. The recent changes airline-wide, but most prominently the difficulty in getting anything but an RJ out of our home airports, have us seeking greener pastures. So UA will not be a big part of _our_ traveling lives at least for calendar 2014.

You guys realize that the United server just sends a bunch of text to the user, and it's the user's browser that renders that text into something useable, right?
If this tool is violating the TOS, so is Chrome, Firefox, I.E., and any other web browser that doesn't render the page in the same text that it received in response to the HTTP request.

Reboot your computer and try again.

Chrome changed their security policy to disallow direct-loading of user scripts. Install Tampermonkey from the Chrome store (free) and then you will be able to load user scripts into Chrome again.
Good luck.

Yes, the OTHER part of the problem. [sarcasm/on] But don't worry, you can keep checking every day. It still won't be there, but you might get an upsell at T-24. [sarcasm/off]

Still functional?
I realized that the New United beta website is taking on action. I just tried to search some flights but the R inventory script doesn't seem to show anything. Is it working for any of you? I tried Firefox(didn't work), didn't try Chrome yet.

Sorry all... this script no longer functions (well) even on the old site, and has not been updated to even be aware of the beta/new site.
Nobody here is flying enough UA anymore to motivate rewriting the script, but we are a bunch of geeky engineers, so once the new site is launched and stable, we might just do it anyhow... I'm also happy to help anybody who wants to take over the code, though since the Javascript is already available to anybody who downloaded the script, I'm not sure you need me.
There's not a whole lot of point in writing userscripts that change functionality, against a site that is still being deployed and heavily updated. That's just begging for all of your hard work to be undone! But once the site stabilizes and is broadly launched, we'll look at this again!

I know this one is dead but the similar functionality on mine is still alive, both for old and new site. http://blog.wandr.me/2015/07/bringin...the-beta-site/
