AJAX Fast Open/Close Threads (vB 3.5 Replication) · **Released**: 05-17-2005

Update: To fix the known 2 bugs (red x for new threads & in-functional on search pages), re-download, do the edit for the 'search_results' template, and re-upload clientscript/ajax_openclosethread.js

Well as i wrote a tutorial on how to use AJAX, i thought i might aswell release an addon which uses AJAX Technology.

I'm sure you've all seen the video of AJAX in action in the vBulletin v3.5 development announcement, and if you havn't, better go look at it for a preview.

This addon will do exactly what that video shows, opening and closing topics with no page reload what-so-ever (no, it does not include the fast edit topic title).

Very easy installation, upload 1 file, 1 file to edit and 2 templates to edit, should take you 5-10 minutes max

Enjoy,

Nice work!! Keep them coming

(btw. vB 3.5 is delaying.. Kier is trying to get more AJAX into it since now he knows AJAY isn't not that special

)

Sounds good, AJAX really opens up a lot of oppertunities to improve systems and more access to do things we couldn't in the past.

I have checked up the installation guide twice... but when i click on the status icon i get a error message in internet explorer's status bar:

Object Expected.

I have not missed any steps. Please guide.

Ensure you have made all edits, then make sure you have uploaded the js file into its proper location (forumdir/clientscript), make sure its uploaded in ASCII mode

ZT, you are very good at what you do. Take a look at that . Got the Java from yahoo to examine. Food for thought!

Yeah, google are also using AJAX technology, for GMail and Google Suggest (which is still in beta i believe).

Though i won't need any reference, all i needed reference to was the ajax core functions itself, i already know JS so really it's just a question of using what i know with ajax, like this modification for example

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
