nice! :)

this kinda cool ;)

currently i'm also using TWT shoutbox, if wanna use this one
just simply overwrite the files right?

Looks great but last time I added a shoutbox my bandwidth got killed overnight =\

@ Tok Muda : if i were you, i'd make a choice between the two
and if my choice was to try this one, i'd completely uninstall the
other one :)... Just in case :).

@ [D]Vincent : this shoutbox really adds load to the web server
when full sized. But when reduced it does only add two small
queries per home page view ;).
And it doesn't add any load on other pages.

this is extra nice!

Me clicks install.

I dont think im going to install it on Mine JUST b/c i run an irc network and this is to much like irc(i need all the user i can get on the ircd :)). if i din't though i would defintly have this on. You deserve that install though. GREAT first hack.

2 extra bits of instructions:

1) Chmod shoutbox_config.php to 777
2) In your index.php, place these templates into your

templatesused ="shoutbox,shoutbox_bit_me,shoutbox_bit,shoutbox_f ermee,shoutbox_bit_vide,..."

section to reduce your queries substantially.

:)

I'm installing it as you can see...

@ erwin : that was the point of me posting this here erwin :)
(apart from having people installing it all over the world and
making screenshots of their forums for my momy to be proud ;) ),
I wanted to be sure my code was correct, and you just helped
me going the right way, when i upgraded my templates system
i forgot to add all the new templates to the var
$templatesused in the index.php and the shoutbox.php where
there are some missing :)...

I will change it as soon as i get some sleep :).

And i will also add the chmod in the install file, with a bit of
instruction in case it doesnt make it on its own ;).


@ DemiNeo0101 : thanks for the kind words ;)

I'm running into some major problems.

1) The icons to click on the smilies and close/ open the shoutbox is located on top of the "Go" button. I have enlarged the iframe with no improvements.

2) When I close the shoutbox, I get a blank spot with the word "Close" in it.

Any suggestions?

Okay, figured it out. :)

Thanks, looks nice. I'm customizing it to suit my site. Curious - why do you use < div> tags for the icons? Why not leave them out?

I use div because the body tags of the default header of vBulletin
has a 10px margin all around. And since i'm using the default
header because i dont want to create another template ;), and
i dont want this box to be too large, it permits me to have
everything fit in the room, with absolute positionning :D.

Oh and by the way, i am just upgrading to 1.2.2 with $templatesused
var filled and chmod made by the install script :D.
