Nice thank you

I have a new version that works in ALL major browsers including: IE / Firefox / Chrome / Opera and Safari! This is a little more complicated to implement so if you're happy with the existing tag there is no NEED to upgrade, however this new version works on more (all) browsers.

It makes use of the jquery javascript library built into VB4.

Step 1. Download the attachment, unzip, and upload the .js file it to your /clientscript/jquery/ directory. (This may be under /forums/clientscript/jquery/ or any other directory you have your forums installed in.)

Step 2. Admin CP -> Styles and Templates -> Style Manger -> Choose your style(s) -> All Style Options: Edit your headinclude template and add the following code at the bottom of it:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Make sure you change the file paths to the .js files to match your directory setup. For me it's "/forums/clientscript/filename.js" If your forums are in your web root your location may be just "/clientscript/filename.js".

jquery-1.3.min.js is already installed in your /clientscript/jquery/ directory.

Step 3. Make a new BB Code using the instructions in the first post or edit your existing blink bb code. Use the following replacement code instead of the replacement in the first post. (much shorter):

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Save your new or edited BB Code and you're done. You know have a [bkink] tag that works in all major browsers.

Note: Updated to use VB4's built in jquery file.

You could also do this and not have to worry about staying up-to-date on jquery.

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>

Also, a text file with the instructions would be nice, too, so users didn't have to always come back here for installation instructions in case it ever needed to be re-installed.

Pretty cool, but how could I get the password box like on the demo page?

installed and working in 4.0.6

I do agree with Boofo that instructions for installation should accompany the download of the js

That is certainly possible although I usually prefer to host all files locally if at all possible so I'm not dependent on someone else's servers, no matter how reliable they are.

I'll PM you the info on Password but I didn't create it so I'm not posting it... it's actually pretty useless though, if someone quotes the message they'd see the password.

I will start providing downloadable instructions for my mods, I have a few to catch up on... in the mean time you could always copy and paste the info from the relevant post into a text file and save it if you're worried you may lose access.

[BirdOPrey5]

Updated to latest jquery release...you don't need to upgrade but it's in the new zip if you want it.

Just FYI, there is a new directory in vb 4 now:

\forums\clientscript\jquery\

It contains 5 files:

jquery.droppy.js
jquery.floatbox.js
jquery.styledselect.js
jquery.tooltip.js
jquery-1.3.min.js

I don lt remember seeing that in vb3, but it has been a while.

[BirdOPrey5]

Thanks Boofo, I didn't even think to look if VB4 shipped with jquery (vb3 does not) - I've updated the instructions once again to make use of the file that's already there.

[Boofo]

To be totally honest, I was surprised to find that directory in vb 4. Maybe vb 4 is finally going in the right direction using jquery.

What's funny is it's there but not being called by the forum, I still had to add the line to load it in the header include.

your welcome- but really the thanks should go to the good people who designed the jquery package - I just found this and thought it would be good for us VB folk.
