Private Messages Enhancements - Change Userinfo Box on New Notification

This will change the Navbar where the userinfo is to a different color when a user has a unread private message, unread profile message, profile visitor message awaiting approval, incoming friends request, requests to join users social group or an invitation to join social groups.

This can be done with a simple template edit but I do this on so many forums I'm tired of doing the template edit every update. So this hack is born.

1.1 - Fixed the code to match 3.7 (thanks boofo for bringing it up)

Install Info:

1. Import the product.
2. done.

See SS for example.

How to change the style:

I used the td.inlinemod class for the color effect. If you wish to use your own just create some custom CSS and add it in the additional CSS field in you style manager for the styles you use. You could also add a background image in your custom CSS for other effect.

To change the CSS go into the options page for this hack and where it says replacment text change the following:

<td class="inlinemod" nowrap="nowrap">

Now you would replace the text in red "inlinemod" to your custom CSS. Depending on your style it would look something like this.

<td class="yourcss" nowrap="nowrap">
