Description

This script was written to build a bridge between the most popular geocaching site and a relatively new site that offers a free tracking service - geokrety.org. It has two functions. Once you enter a particular cache page on geocaching.com it will automatically check if there are any geokrets (items tracked on geokrety.org) inside that cache and show the result in the inventory section on the right hand side of the screen (below the existing list of Travelbugs and Geocoins). If you have an account on geokrety.org you can also easily drop geokrets into GC caches because the waypoint code and coordinates are automatically copied over onto the logging form on geokrety.org.

Since I have little time & possibility for geocaching right now, I might not be aware of some bugs or shortcomings so please don't wait and let me know if an update is required.

Happy hunting ;)
