Installed. Great MOD!
Thanks :nervous:

Just installed it. Works great. I was wondering, though... Is it possible to not make the entire cell linked? I want only the text to remain linked, as it was before I installed this modification...

Just remove the entire onclick statement, and style="cursor:hand;" statement from the replacement code.

Anyone know why in Firefox when you hover on a category the hand icon doesn't show up.

Thanks.

[TygerTyger]

It won't show up if you followed my instructions as above to prevent the entire cell being a hyperlink. You can force the hand icon even if it's not a hyperlink by leaving in style="cursor:hand;" although your users might find it confusing.

It works in IE but not firefox, but i guess i can remove the cursor hand code so it's the same as the threads.

I went through and changed Alt 2(in red)

PHP Code:

onmouseover="this.className='alt2Active'" 


to .legend in my case. To try a diffrent color, in your CSS options each table has a name in the bottom left corner of it. Just try those various classes in place of Alt2 untill you fidn oen that works.

Small thing to add to this for people who don't want to usurp a whole Style slot.

If you check in your style options down at 'Additional CSS Definitions' you can add a code into the second box, like this;

PHP Code:

.forumrollover 
{ 
     background: #6E81A0; 
     color: #000000; 
} 


Then change the template code to match as you suggested, but using the 'forumrollover' instead of one of the default ones. This way, if you ever use the default one you would have used otherwise, you don't have to have them both the same... if you get my meaning... somehow I don't think I was to coherent :s

But yeah, I use it, works great, and because of ^that^ method, I don't have to have alternating colours across my forum, yay!

Hello ,
I Installed it on my forums but there is a small but noticable delay in changing when I move mouse over the cell. Has anyone know what is the problem ? also the problem is not related to it's background image or it's border I added to it's CSS class .

( the delay only appears in IE 6.0 but not Opera or FFox ) ...

Any help appreciated

Where do you adjust the alternating colors? I can't seem to make it work.
