took a fresh edit.php and editing it from the install file, followed the instructions very carefully and am still getting :

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /home/alienfi/public_html/forums/editpost.php(158) : eval()'d code on line 48

line 48 is

regarding your posts before, it seems either your downloaded install file was corrupted during the download, or your upload corrupts the files.

redownload the install file, then use an original editpost.php and apply the hack then.

there is nothing wrong with the hack itself.

@Bob: hmm, no problem, i allow you to do my tests so you can become that busy as well ;)

I'll whip those tests out for you. Bring 'em on! ;)

@Xenon
I think this hack has a major bug:
The advanced editing options do not show up on preview.
So if you first click preview and then submit the values will be empty ...

Damn preview....

yeah you are right.
I've uploaded a bugfixed version. it's jsut a copy paste, as a part of the script has to be on another part in editpost.php

OK. It does show up on preview now, but it still doesn't work correctly.

Example:
I click edit, change the username, click preview.
Now it still displays the original username (it should display the new one).
I decide to stop editing, but when I visit the thread again the username has been changed (it should only be changend when submitting).

Furthermore, your template code isn't fully XHTML-compliant: it should be selected="selected" instead of just selected.

thx, for finding out :)

i'll do some changes at that WE, but i'm currently very very busy...

ok, i've uploaded a new version again.
it should be working now without problems.

How do i update it from v. 1.00?

regards

just restart with a unmodified editpost.php and apply it again.
as the preview functions could be decided in do update, i have had to change the script too much to provide easy upgrade txts.

the template should be overwritten as well
