[AJAX] vBShout v2.0

[high]Staff Edit/Update[/high]

I have released an updated version of this hack (version 2.0.1), this version fixes some security issues with this hack. All version prior to this one allow users to insert html in their shouts, this can cause problems with them using html that breaks the site layout or malicious javascript. Download the new zip file (vBshout_fixed.zip) and upload the new vbshout.php file to patch/upgrade. If you want to manual instructions they are in the zip file, in the file bugfixes.txt

Second Staff update

I've uploaded a new version of this hack, dubbed '2.0.2'. This one should fix the html injection issues without breaking special characters. To upgrade, download the new zip file and upload the new vbshout.php file.

Please note that this only fixes the html injection issues. I do not use this hack on my own forum (although I've tested this on a client's board) so I will not be fixing the server load issues. I suggest you do not install this hack if you can't deal with the extra server load, as it's rather intensive.

I disabled the shoutbox a few weeks back because of spammers.

I must have had a long day, because I went to reactivate it, and I simply cannot see where to do it from.

Can someone point me in the obvious direction please. My brain must be in low gear or summin.

Thanks

The Smilies are working in my shoutbox normally, but qoutes and other punctuation are shown as code i.e: " = &quote;

Anyone have a quick fix?

Thanks,
