vb.org Archive - Subforum Panel

Description. This is a Mod to make sub-forums appear in a small panel that can be toggled on and off. I just feel the Subforum Drop-down Menu mod is not enough so I have made this one. Select either one as your liking!! :rolleyes:

The state of on/off is saved in cookies
Hierachy show for at most 2 level of sub-forums

        itm = document.all[id];

        else if(document.layers)

        itm = document.layers[id];

        

        return itm;

}



function toggleSubforumList(id,use_cookie)

{

        itm = getItem(id);

        

        if(!itm)

        return false;



        if(itm.style.display == 'none')

        {

                var expireDate = new Date();

                expireDate.setYear(expireDate.getFullYear()+1);

                itm.style.display = '';

                if (use_cookie) set_cookie(id,'Y',expireDate);

        }

        else

        {

                itm.style.display = 'none';

                if (use_cookie) delete_cookie(id);

        }



        return false;

}

</script>
