+As previously mentioned, Midori can use most scripts you will find. Midori supports Greasemonkey's <em>@include</em> and <em>@exclude</em> metadata so that scripts are only loaded on appropriate pages. Midori doesn't support advanced metadata, such as @require and @resource, so user scripts can't define dependencies on other scripts - most of the time this isn't a problem. Midori also does not support <a href="http://wiki.greasespot.net/API_reference" class="urlextern" title="http://wiki.greasespot.net/API_reference"  rel="nofollow">Greasemonkey API</a>. Scripts must also be compatible with Webkit, since Midori is based on WebKit. A Greasemonkey script that makes use of functionality of Gecko/ Firefox will not work in Midori.
