Or you could use $textareacols

Tis not a global variable is it?

Add this in your code and it would work for your hack. ;)

$textareacols = gettextareawidth();

Ahhh but that requires hacking buddy ;)

This is the template mods forum :D

I know. Add the $textareacols to your template mod. ;)

Hehe but it is not defined in showthread.php - that's what the hack does. That's one of the two disadvantages of using a template mod. With conditionals this can be done easily :)

But that is what I use for Firefly's Quick reply Box that is a separate template. Why wouldn't it work in the showthread template as well? ;)
