Download button link

This is my first release so go easy on me okay

This will add a nifty little hyperlinked immage so that if someone were to post a download link, it would display a hyper-linked immage for the user to click on instead of a long download link to a file or w/e

Installation:
Goto adminCP ->Custom BBCodes-> Add new BBCode

Title:
Download

Tag:
dl

Replacement:

<a href="{param}" target="_new"><img src="http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/9572/downloadzc4.png" /></a>

Example:
[dl]http://[/dl]

Description:
Hyperlinked download immage

Use {option}
No

Button Immage:


PLEASE NOTE: I uploaded the immage so if you wish to download it and upload it to your server, just change

to the path of where its located at on your server

For instance, if you upload it to your /images file the code would look like this:

<a href="{param}" target="_new"><img src=Forum/images/misc/IMAGE NAME /></a>

If you like it, click install

I'm new here and I really like this mod ... but. There's always a but, huh? When in use on the forums the image has a link hilight box around it. Is there any way to remove/hide that? It's like underlined for text links but it wraps around the image.

Thanks

lolz ive encountered this problem with firefox. they think its leet or smtin to link the immages like that. im not sure at all if this will work but its worth a try eh?

use this code:

<table border="0">
<tr>
<td>
<a href="{param}" target="_new"><img src="http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/9572/downloadzc4.png" /></a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Thanks anywares, valiant effort but it had no effect on the image. I have the image uploaded to my server but it still shows the "link" outine.

You have to put border=0 in the code to remove the ugly box:

<a href="{param}" target="_new"><img src="http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/9572/downloadzc4.png" border=0/></a>

Nice mod - thanks

[darkman]

...also, if you are hosting the file in your forums/images/misc directory you need to put a forward slash before forums:

<a href="http://" target="_new"><img src=/forums/images/misc/downloadzc4.png border=0/></a>

Here's a cool little png file to use as a button image:

lol glad you like it but he doesnt mean that border, he means the border that Firefox 2+ puts around a hyperlinked immage
