NOTE: If you can't find [34] or [35], replace with [35] and [34] respecively.

Nice job Greg. I'm going to update it on my board soon.

Try the following for 2.0:
Not tested, but, hmm, should work

[edited] - so it doesnt stretch the screen. [/edited]

When I added this code it hid the box from everybody. I didn't leave it there long enough to toy with it since I'm putting a new CD player in my wifes car but I did verify that I didn't have any typos.

sorry lk, lost it this time.

Hahaha, it did stretch the crap out of the screen but now it appears to be gone.

Ahem, now I don't have a copy of it, XPerT?

Can you please use [quote] next time?

I'm sorry, I had a text file on my desktop for it but it's blank, I must not have saved it.

oops.

Okay, I can see my problem. This time it's tested:

That Code works fine on 6.3.0 Thanks guys.

Just out of curiosity, why move to Java from the original hack?

To hide from unregistered

I finally upgraded from your 1.7 version and everything is working peachy..

Apparently All is not fine.

I've received the following from one of my users who uses Netscape 6.2

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The button does nothing when I click submit. There are no errors of any type (I checked the Javascript and Java consoles, no errors) The browser does not seem to try and "go" anywhere, the status is not changing as if it is trying to load another page or anything like that. It just sits there idle. If I click reply, and fill out the form there, it works fine. It is only the Quick Reply that is not working. </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Has Anyone else had problems or results with 6.2?

Any suggestions are most welcome.

Paul

One of my members have requested a feature where there is a link to the Smilie Legend below the 'Your Reply:' in the left table..

Is this possible?

Like anyone actually uses Netscape

Has anyone had a problem with quickreply whereby sometimes posts made on the quickreply box is posted somewhere else? Like not where it's supposed to be?

I haven't had any issues with it at all....I still use the 1.9 version though.

Yep, It's posting in the wrong threads for me now too...crap.

XPerT, when are you gonna understand that if you want us to find a bug, you have to leave the problematic code instead of going back when something doesn't work?!
