Awesome!

Just one question. Is there a way to prevent users from going over the pixel height limit altogether? Like, preventing them from saving the sig if it exceeds that limit.

Short Answer: not really.

Problem is that the sig height can display different in different browsers, various default text sizes, etc. The actual height is determined when the sig is rendered in the browser. Even if you could get that information back from the browser to the server, or limit it with a client-side script, it is not guaranteed to be the same height in other's browsers.

For instance, a user could shrink their default text size to the smallest setting and save their really long sig under those settings. Everyone with normal text size would have a much larger sig displayed. Hope that makes sense.

Dang. Well then, its not exactly what I want, but its the closest thing I've seen yet!

:) This is similar to the modification I released a couple of days ago but have been doing for years on my forum:

Prevent Oversized Images Breaking Message Tables

With yours, however, it comes equipt with a nice plugin. Cool to know that many of us want similar features. :)

Great mod!

Any way this could limit width as well?

Hey, very cool. I had a heck of a time getting IE, Opera and Firefox all to play well with the overflow settings. Ill have to take a look at how you did it and see if I missed anything.

Sure, you could make it work. The reason I didn't add it here is that setting it to an absolute max is a problem in some styles. The flow of the thread is vertical so it was not a big deal to limit it in that direction. People run their browsers in many different widths, so you could introduce some strangeness.

On first thought, maybe by adding a "max-width:" setting in the phrase holding the CSS. Maybe something like:

changed to:

You might have to play with an "overflow-y:" setting as well. Make sure if you play with these that you check the results with at least IE6, firefox and opera. The all deal with overflow differently.

Good luck and let me know how it goes.

Opera have always given me the most problems when CSS is concerned. Props to you sinaluna on a great mod and support. :)

Coolest. Hack. Ever. :p

Well, maybe not coolest, but definitely up there.

If you use this in combination with the "Extended Signature Limits" hack, you can control almost all aspects of the signatures... if they find a way to break your line limit, tada!

Nice work.
