This is sorta neat... everything, instead of having the old-school type-in text box for replies and new threads, you have a Frontpage-like visual editor for your replies!
Supports colors, and everything! Here's how to install...
1. Back up your newreply and newthread templates, just in case. (I'm not responsible if you screw up and blow up your house.)
2. Instead of me giving you pieces of the templates to modify, since there are huge modifications, I'll just give you the templates themselves. You usually won't have to change anything, unless you installed some hacks that modify the newreply or newthread templates.
3. When people are posting/replying, be sure to let them know that before they can submit the form, they have to press the 'save' button that's on the toolbar.
4. Upload the images attached to forums/images/toolbar directory.
OK. Now it works! Great hack... but before I'll implement on my boards there are a few hurdles:
1) How do you alter the style of the iFrame? It's a rather horrid darkish grey and the font is weird. I tried to put a ' style="background-color: #FFF" ' in the iFrame tag, but nothing happened?
2) It seems to make a <p> instead of a <br> when you hit ENTER, is it possible to change that?
3) Perhaps related to 2) - I've hacked the quote-function so I'm usually given an output that looks like this...
hmm . ..this hack looks hella nice but I'm just confused on how to install it. I mean, you just gave us the two templates but my newthread and newreply are already edited a bit. So can you tell us what to edit specifically in the two templates or is that too much?

There are way too many modifications to list.
You are better off installing this postbit, and then applying the template modifications of your other hacks, since I doubt that there are other hacks that change these templates as much as this one.:bunny:
These are nice template edits, not a hack, but i enjoy it, it could esily be made a hack if you have a user option where they can choose if they wanna use the new reply template or the old one when posting. Wouldnt be hard to do.
Glad to see someone read my request (I think)... or at least had the same idea! I look forward to your updated release, as html in postings simply *isn't* an option (my biggest hurdle in getting this to work for me was finding a way to replace the html tags IE5.x+ supports converted to vbcode )

If someone could get that worked out, it'd be pretty darn nice. I would, but I'm lazy. Did I mention I am brutally honest?
