No problem, and I am happy that you like it. Visited your site: sweet

[Talon3DHQ]

Well, thank you very much! We just redid the whole darn thing, and have alot we want to do. Right now, it is a general "hang out", but we have lots of ideas!

Ok, quick question about the mouse over. If you at my forums home page, where the Private messages and Who's online is, is there a way to make those two fields/tables, do the same thing?

In forumhome_pmloggedin

Find:

<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" colspan="5">

Replace with:

<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" colspan="5" onMouseOver="this.style.backgroundColor='#DFDFDF'; 
this.style.cursor='hand';" 
onMouseOut="this.style.backgroundColor='#F1F1F1';" 
onClick="window.location.href='private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'">

In forumhome_loggedinusers

<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" colspan="6">

Replace with:

<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1" colspan="6" onMouseOver="this.style.backgroundColor='#DFDFDF'; 
this.style.cursor='hand';" 
onMouseOut="this.style.backgroundColor='#F1F1F1';" 
onClick="window.location.href='online.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'">

Replace #DFDFDF with {secondaltcolor } without space.
Replace #F1F1F1 with {firstaltcolor } without space.

That should do it.

your welcome and SWEET site you have there!

[jkolman]

Thanks JTMON. I appreciate the comments. I wish I could say that I designed the site but unfortunately, all I did was the forums. We used to run a UBB a few weeks back but I decided to "upgrade" to vBulletin. The import went without a hitch and all the members seem to be very, very happy with all the "new toys" they can now play with.

Your site is very cool as well. It's amazing what you guys can do with a little php programming. I'm still in amazement that a site can be built based on vBulletin.

Take care bro.

Those are great

Thanks a lot for sharing those template changes. Its fun to throw new stuff at my friends when they least expect it

oops spoke too soon, I am getting a "done but with errors" display in lower left hand corner. Any idea how to find out what the errors are?

Ok double oops, I forgot this "> gee I am amazed it worked with out.

I just installed the mouseover in my template and it worked great. I love the way it looks. I would also like to have the mouseovers once I go into a forum. What templates do I need to modify?

Thanks,
Netman
