Overview

Limits the number of items the browser will keep in history by days.

A personal edit of nschneirov's History Limiter put up to share. Overall the logic remain unchanged from the original version. Main changes: - code reworks to eliminate need for jQuery and to facilitate manifest ver 2 - event page enabled - no changes to logic, no new functions The main aim of this edit is to make it event page enabled so it unloads when not needed thus saving memory. ================= CHANGELOG: 1.2 [21/04/2018] - back to using a set button to overcome the premature clear - some minor UI changes 1.1.1 [10/05/2014] - history will be trimmed right after the day value is edited 1.1 [27/04/2014] - tidying and restructuring of code - changed options page to auto save - added textfield number check - added working 0 days mode (no history)

I used ChromeHistoryView by NirSoft to verify that this does remove the history before the set number of days. At least, it works at some point after pressing the set button. But it'd be better if it gave a clearer indication of when it's accomplished the task. Maybe give a readout of how many entries it has cleared or some other way of letting you know it actually did something.

HEADS-UP! THIS STUPID TOOL WILL PERMANENTLY ERASE YOUR BROWSING HISTORY RIGHT AFTER EDITING THE "DAY" VALUE, AND WITHOUT GIVING ANY WARNINGS AT ALL!
