How to disable the new, annoying, MSDN orange "Change view" button?

Question

I've tried using noscript on firefox but it doesn't help, is there any way to use firebug to disable this button?

Answer 1

Write a Greasemonkey script.

Answer 2

With Firebug enabled (assuming Windows platform):

1. Right-click on the "Change View" button
2. Choose "Inspect Element" from the context menu
3. In the HTML tree in Firebug, click the DIV with an ID value of "ctl00_LwViewSwitcher1_ViewSwitcherButton" (if it's not already selected)
4. In the "Style" pane on the right, right-click on the ".LWVS_Button" style rule
5. Choose "New Property" from the context menu
6. Name the new property "display" and give it a value of "none"

Tada! No more button.

Of course, this isn't a permanent solution, but Firebug isn't designed to continually filter web pages on subsequent visits. For that you'd want Greasemonkey like Anthony Mills said, or something similar.
