Geocaching Hide Nav Bars
Are you using a small screen and find the navigation bar on the left and right sides of a geocaching.com page takes up too much space?
With this script you can hide or show the navigation bars quickly and easily, freeing up valuable space for actual content.
Click the left arrow
button to hide the Nav Bar.
Click again on the right arrow
button to show the Nav Bar.
The script will remember which nav bars are hidden, and re-hide them next time you open the page.
Much more content is shown when the navigation is hidden. Each pair of pictures below are exactly the same size.

The same functionality is also available on the cache page and Your Profile page.

This script was originally going to be part of my Geocaching Google Map Enhancements script, but I realized this feature is quite useful on the entire geocaching.com site.

Install or update the script










Default?
First, Really nice script. Really like it.
Any chance to get default states added. For example always hide the left bar as default or to remember the last state used on startup?
