Advanced Recipients List Control

This was made by request, however i may of gone a little over the top, doing more than requested, but hey, more = good, right?

Anyway, what does this do?
Description:
The "Advanced Recipients List Control" creates a GUI (General User Interface) to easily adapt Recipients to your PM list in an extremely easy way, with no manual work required or knowing of full usernames.

Features:
- GUI (General User Interface)
- Search - (You may input full usernames, or just part, the search will return multiple results if more than 1 are found)
- Add Recipient - (Select the user from the results drop down list, hit insert, and bam, there in the list!)
- Remove A Recipient - (Added one by mistake? Don't worry, just hit remove and there gone from the list!)
- No refreshing - At All! - (The system will search, add, remove recipients, and all this is dynamic, controlled by javascript, allowing fast and easy usability)
- Full compatability in FireFox (and possibly other browsers too, havn't tested though)

Version 2.0 Features:
- Recipients shown in 2 columns (instead of 1 big column)
- Buddy List is shown to add buddies to recipients list easily
- Table layout improved, just a little neatened structure
- Bug Fix for Arcade collision fixed

Note:
For those upgrading from v1, just download and re-do ALL edits.

Previews are posted below, and contained within the download, enjoy!

The "Arcade Game Search" box already uses the element name 'search'.

I'm concerned about this since my forums also have Arcade installed, any fix for this?

There sure is! - Install everything as normal, and then do the following steps..

In pm_newpm template, find:

						Search = document.getElementById('search').value

Replace it with:

						Search = document.getElementById('searchpm').value

Now, find:

					<td><input type='text' id='search' class='bginput' /></td>

Replace it with:

					<td><input type='text' id='searchpm' class='bginput' /></td>

All fixed..

Ah, the WYSIWYG javascript global variables use the new Object() method, and i called one of my variables Object, how nice, collision

Anyway, to fix this, go to the template "pm_newpm"
Find:

Object    = document.getElementById('buildSearch')

Replace With:

ObjectIns    = document.getElementById('buildSearch')

Find:

Object.innerHTML = BuildHTML

Replace With:

ObjectIns.innerHTML = BuildHTML

Save the template, and it will work in WYSIWYG mode

Also TosaInu, nice suggestions, i wasn't planning on making a newer version for this but with those ideas it doesn't seem like a bad idea to implement that

Thank you SO much for getting this hack completed! I just tested it and everything is working great in FF with a 3.0.7 Vbulletin board. Yay!

In the future, maybe a hack add-on for the people that would like to search the members list. I only have about 20 members, so I know their names, but others may not. If it's an option, then people don't have to install it if they have more than say 50 members.

Thanks again!

Broken in Safari. Perhaps as part of the default install, you test for known working browsers and if it isn't one of them, you go to the old interface? Just a suggestion...

I'm very impressed with the improvements of v2..

Excellent, excellent work ZT.

gregsbaby64 - I'll try get that done when i have a few spare minutes

cirisme - Well, i aimed to get it working in Internet Explorer and Firefox, the 2 most used browsers on the net, and if something works in Firefox, it will most likely work in Netscape and a range of other browsers. But safari is a rarely used one, so i'm trying to provide for the mass majority here.

Oblivion Knight - What can i say, thanks

A nice little option could be to place some sort of red asteriks to indicate those who have disabled PM (cannot receive, so might as well be alerted up front :-))

Very Nice work.

I may install this soon.
