Information Bar for Guests · **Version:** 3.0.10

Information Bar for Guests (for version 3.5.0)

What is this?
This will display an information bar across the top of the browser window that appears to be like the Information Bar that is from Windows XP SP2. When the user clicks it they will be sent to the registration page for your forums. This is not a popup.

If the user is logged in then this will not display at all. This only appears on the page for people who are not logged in.

For vbadvanced just add the files into your root directory.

That is not the problem with vbportal. I think it has to do with the headinclude part....

when i mouse over the hack, the image disappears and then the 2.gif appears, and when i mouse out the same thing happens. that happens to me with ie for any site but i primarily use firefox and it works flawlessly with the higher standard browser.

i use sp1/ie6.0.2800 but that's of no consequence

Slapyo · #**176** 05-12-2005, 05:01 PM

i've never noticed that before with IE6. nobody else has mentioned it either. it shouldn't take very long to load the images because they are very small in size... 630 bytes. even on dial up something that small really shouldn't make a difference in the time it takes to appear.

i think it does cache the image once it is loaded too. so initally the first image is cached, then the first time you rollover that image is cached.

you know what setting does it? i had it set to check for newer versions of stored pages "every visit to the page". so i changed it to "automatically" and now it works seemlessy.

Xil Ze · #**178** 05-13-2005, 05:31 AM

i added cursor: hand; to the hover part..so now i like it even more

Slapyo · #**179** 05-14-2005, 02:58 AM

right on, glad you got it working!

Okay, I had to rebuild, so I know it is a hack I have installed.

I'm nowhere near able to figure this out, can I send you things to look at? Maybe put some templates into text files and zip them up for you?

dsboyce8624 · #**181** 05-15-2005, 11:48 PM

I figured it out.

I have the Microstats Hack installed. The one that gives how long to generate the page and the PHP and SQL percentages.

I moved that code up in the headerinclude template and it took out the space at the top.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
