Duplicate Question Suggestion Boxes

##About

Duplicate Question Suggestion Boxes is an user script for any Stack Exchange site that makes it extremely simple to check for duplicate questions for a post. In the left side it shows the duplicate question suggestions right under the title (the one you get when you ask the question) and in the right side it shows the related questions (moved from the sidebar).

When you click on a link, it opens the duplicate question close box. You can then easily click through the questions and view them all in the open duplicate question close box. This makes finding the right duplicate (if one exists) blazingly fast except for those weird cases where you need to visit the search...

JavaScript on the client side.

##Versions

  • 1.1.1: Small graphical fixes for Google Chrome, proper clear:both and removed element focus.

  • 1.1: Links now open the duplicate question close box and also get trimmed after 60 characters.

    Title was placed under the boxes instead of above it so it fits together with the question body.

  • 1.0: Script released to the public, two boxes that just have links to the question pages.

##Planned

  • When there comes a future release, I will implement an update check for convenience.

  • Interface improvements, there is some real estate stolen. How could this be fixed?

  • Do you have any ideas to be implemented?
