Private Messages Enhancements - pm popup

this is my "little" pm popup window which is available on every page!
you just need to press alt + n to open it(at moment opera isn't supported)
also a link in the footer is available where you can click to open it

ATM THIS is a BETAVERSION!


Here a little demovideo: http://www.ragtek.org/videos/pmpopupnew.htm
Only the first part includes this add-on, the second part with the new notification is in an other add-on which hasn't been released atm!

If you haven't installed tms you need to add this into your headinclude template:
search for:
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_global.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script> and add under it:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="clientscript/yui/container/container.css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/yui/container/container-min.js"></script>

and in footer search for: <form action="$vboptions[forumhome].php" method="get"> and add under it:

<style type="text/css">
.label2 { display:block;float:left;width:45%;clear:left; }
.clear { clear:both; }
#dialog1_c.yui-panel-container.shadow .underlay { background-color:$stylevar[page_bgcolor]; }
#dialog1.yui-panel { position:relative; border:none; overflow:visible; background-color:transparent;  width:400px; }
#dialog1.yui-panel .hd { padding:0; border:none; height:22px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; text-align:center; overflow:visible; }
#dialog1.yui-panel .bd {height: 150px; overflow:hidden; padding:4px;     }
#dialog1.yui-panel .ft { color:#666; padding:2px; overflow:hidden; border:1px solid #aeaeae; border-top:none; background-color:$stylevar[page_bgcolor]; }
.mask { background-color:#000000;opacity:0.7;}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
vbphrase["send"]="$vbphrase[send]";
vbphrase["cancel"]="$vbphrase[cancel]";  
vbphrase["rec"]="$vbphrase[rag_invalidrec]";  
-->
</script>

								recip1_sugg.allow_multiple = true;

	                </form>
                </div>
<div class="ft">&copy ragtek.org</div>
             </div>

Known Bugs: In Opera alt + n don't open the popup
in some cases the namesuggestbox don't appear where it should, thats a "bug" in vbulletin.

Übercool!

[iogames]

ScreenShots are standard to understand the magnitude of the Mod

[ragtek]

because screenshots are boring, i added a video

Here a little demovideo: http://www.ragtek.org/videos/pmpopupnew.htm

[ragtek]

Edit: but for all the people who NEED some screenshots, now i added one

[rowlandc]

Very nice mod, I'll probably be adding it soon

[ragtek]

pls be aware thats atm just a betaversion
btw this is also working on vb < 3.7 if you upload the yui connection manager and yahoo-dom-event yourself.

i must check how to manage the autonamepopup error, then i can release the "real" version i think^^

I'll be awaiting your quick edit for prefixes with interest.

[KURTZ]

this hack is really interesting, but i hate the template editing ...
