Fix animated smilies after clicking

Not much of a hack, this one... and it only works in IE4+ and the very latest of the other browsers.

Basically, it stops the animated smilies in the clickable list from halting their animation cycle after you click one.

Very simple really... change the vbcode_smiliebit template from this:

<a href="javascript:smilie('$smilie[smilietext]')"><img src="$smilie[smiliepath]" alt="$smilie[title]" border="0"></a>

to this

<img src="$smilie[smiliepath]" alt="$smilie[title]" border="0"
	onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand';"
	onclick="smilie('$smilie[smilietext]');">

Cool...how can I make it so the Get more link is the same color as all other links though?

[JJR512]

In the template vbcode_smilies_getmore where it says "Get More", change it to <font color="xx">Get More</font>, where xx is the color, either by name (white) or by hex code (#FFFFFF), or by using the variable for the link color set through the Styles part of the admin cp (that's { linkcolor } without the spaces inside the curly brackets).

to this

<span onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand';" onclick="opensmiliewindow(240,280,'$session[sessionhash]');">
Get More
</span>

edited to prevent smilie parsing

FYI to anybody that runs 2.0.3 this still doesn't work.

kewl just fixed all my problems

Only thing i have noticed is the get more smile box does not stay on top after you click the smile. I know its only a matter of clicking on it to bring it to the top but is there anyway to keep it on top like before??

Hot Dogg get more fix works on my 2.2.4 forum

so when you click on the smilie, the animation should stop as well?
is there a way to make it so that there is no animation at all?
