Glow vB Drop-down menu · **Released**: 09-16-2002

I made mention of this in the Glow buttons thread, but I thought I'd make my own thread to track installations...

The original glow button script is by Matt87, and I must share credit with lichtflits, who came up with this very same idea, but didn't release it as a hack, due to language limitations.

The hack works great! Install was easy and i installed it on 2.2.9

Blast from the past! A mod might want to delete this, since the hack link goes offsite and is no longer there. There's at least one identical glow dropdown still on these forums, which I used.

But before you get rid of this, maybe you could tell me how the glow effect on the dropdown is done, like you can see in the screenshot. :$ I thought to change the:

style="color:[insertcolorhere]"

in vbcode_glowbits (a copy of vbcode_colorbits, of course) to something like:

style="filter:glow(color=[insertcolorhere], strength=3)"

but it didn't work. Suggestions?

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