This hack fixes the problem with Mozilla and the text area on the forum. Mozilla reads the width attribute different than netscape and causes the text area's to be narrow and very fustrating to use when you are typing in a lot of code or just a long message.

Description of what was changed:

I changed the function gettextareawidth to have mozilla use the width specified for IE instead of the width specified for Netscape.

I hope you all like my first hack.

No problem. Let me know when you get any Mozilla users if it works ok.

Wow when I view my web pages with IE 6 after getting this hack to work it makes it really hard to read. Should I or can I change this a little to get my IE to view better. Which one would I change teh 70 and if so what can I change it to?

Wow. I just noticed something. Every web site I visit with Internet Explorer has changed to a smaller pixel or something and when I go into my computer properties it is set right but something is wrong here. I thin I will change it back maybe. What has this mod done?

I am attaching the updated text file I made since vbulletin wants to parse everything.

It works great on my site. You must have changed something else along with it. Look at the file I have attached and make the necessary changes there.

I got my problem fixed thanks to help from Boofo. It was not the hack that caused the problem. It was a case of staying up longer then I should have working on hacks. I was getting lame brained and did something without realizing I even did it.

You probably didn't touch anything to do it. It has happened to me before. I think there must be some sites that do that for whatever reason. Glad you got it working.

That code worked for me as well. I figured the missing / in Erwins post after mine was the prob, but I was getting the same parse errors, but all seems good now both in IE and Moz.

Looks like Firebird is having the same issue as Netscape..
