Private Messages Enhancements - pm popup

this is my "little" pm popup window which is available on every page!
you just need to press alt + n to open it(at moment opera isn't supported)
also a link in the footer is available where you can click to open it

ATM THIS is a BETAVERSION!


Here a little demovideo: http://www.ragtek.org/videos/pmpopupnew.htm
Only the first part includes this add-on, the second part with the new notification is in an other add-on which hasn't been released atm!

If you haven't installed tms you need to add this into your headinclude template:
search for:
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_global.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script> and add under it:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="clientscript/yui/container/container.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/yui/container/container-min.js"></script>

and in footer search for: <form action="$vboptions[forumhome].php" method="get"> and add under it:

<style type="text/css">
.label2 { display:block;float:left;width:45%;clear:left; }
.clear { clear:both; }
#dialog1_c.yui-panel-container.shadow .underlay { background-color:$stylevar[page_bgcolor]; }
#dialog1.yui-panel { position:relative; border:none; overflow:visible; background-color:transparent;  width:400px; }
#dialog1.yui-panel .hd { padding:0; border:none; height:22px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; text-align:center; overflow:visible; }
#dialog1.yui-panel .bd {height: 150px; overflow:hidden; padding:4px;     }
#dialog1.yui-panel .ft { color:#666; padding:2px; overflow:hidden; border:1px solid #aeaeae; border-top:none; background-color:$stylevar[page_bgcolor]; }
.mask { background-color:#000000;opacity:0.7;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">

I would like to have something like this for most functions in vB. I think it makes it easier.

Do you plan on expanding this to other input forms for vB as well?

[RokuDaMerlin]

also auf das empfangen ding bin ich immer noch sehr heiss drauf da ich das noch nirgends gesehen hab (vb) ausser bei dir das IP.Board unterstützt auch so eine nette funktion und allein nur das ankommen der nachricht wär sehr schön wenn wir auch sowas hätten *gg wenn du die funktion nicht kennst kann ich dir mal nen screen schicken wenn du willst vielleicht ist das übernehmen davon einfacher .. das hat auch so kleine tabs in der box ..ist echt ne coole sache .. grüße

I've seen a modification like this here on vb.org some weeks ago.

anybody have a link to this because i stopped the development on this modifiction, so i'd like to check the other^^

[New Joe]

The installation instructions aren't in English so it's hard to know what to do.

[New Joe]

It all installed fine but it won't send the pm, it just does nothing.
Any ideas?
