Hello,
This is a very small modification and in the same time it is my first hack.

What it does: when you turn your forum off, the letters for what ever you write in the field for the reason of closing the forum will be moved (like typing).

Time to install: ~ 1 sec.

Demo: Click here.

How to install: in the field for the reason of closing the forum, just place the content with the following: (of course you can change the content reason).

PHP Code:
<span id="typing">


Sorrythe board is unavailable at the moment while we are testing some functionality.
<
br>
We will be back soon...
<
br>

</
span>

<
script type="text/javascript">

interval 100// Interval in milliseconds to wait between characters

if(document.getElementById) {
  
document.getElementById("typing");
  if(
t.innerHTML) {
    
typingBuffer ""// buffer prevents some browsers stripping spaces
    
it 0;
    
mytext t.innerHTML;
    
t.innerHTML "";
    
typeit();
  }
}

function 
typeit() {
  
// mytext = mytext.replace(/<([^<])*>/, "");     // Strip HTML from text
  
if(it mytext.length) {
    
typingBuffer += mytext.charAt(it);
    
t.innerHTML typingBuffer;
    
it++;
    
setTimeout("typeit()"interval);
  }
}
</
script

You could use global_start, I would think.

EDIT: Ahhh, ok, I get what you meant. Sorry about that.

Wrong forum.
No problemo Sir.

(I saw a car with licence plate "BOOF". I thought of you. )

This looks interesting. I would much rather see a style of my choosing show up when the forums are closed or a redirect to a url of my choosing when the forums are closed. That would be more useful to me.
