Better looking database error screen
 
I thought the database error screen was ugly so I decided to make something more visually appealing (not much!) than the original screen.

Step 1)
Upload the 2 gif's to your includes directory (you can move them wherever you want if you edit the code)

Step 2)
Update the below template so the images are their full URL paths
(ie.. http://site.com/forum/images/blah.gif)


Step 3)
replace the contents of includes/database_error_page.html with:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
        <title>$vboptions[bbtitle] Database Error</title>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
        <style type="text/css">
        <!--
        blockquote { margin-top: 75px; }
        p { font: 11px tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; }
        -->
        </style>
</head>
<body>
<table align="center" width="70%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#E7E7f7">
  <tr bgcolor="#395D94">
    <td colspan="5"><div align="center"><strong><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#FFFFFF">$vboptions[bbtitle] Error</font></strong></div></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="10" rowspan="3">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="100" bgcolor="#F7F7FF"><div align="center"><img src="includes/signOops.gif" width="48" height="49" alt="Oops!" /></div></td>
    <td colspan="2" bgcolor="#F7F7FF">

    <blockquote>
                        <blockquote>
                                <p><strong>There seems to have been a problem with the $vboptions[bbtitle] database.</strong><br />
                                        Please try again by clicking the <a href="#" onclick="window.location = window.location;">Refresh</a> button in your web browser.</p>

                                $message

                        </blockquote>
        </blockquote>

    </td>
    <td width="10" rowspan="3">&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td colspan="3" bgcolor="#F7F7FF"> <div align="right"><img src="includes/pointlaugh.gif" width="58" height="23" alt="funny" /></div>
      <div align="right"><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>You
        broke it!</strong></font></div></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td colspan="3">&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>

</body>
</html>
There you have it! A better looking error message when things go wrong.
You can customize the images, error message, and colors to your liking.

Andreas 10-05-2005 11:30 PM
IMHO it doesn't make too much sense to use $vboptions[bbtitle] ;)

Protoman 10-05-2005 11:34 PM
:p I just left that in there because it was in my original file. I just wanted to get people thinking by releasing this. You're free to make up your own or whatever :)
