OK...this is a seperate idea I am sure...but what about a fader that shows the last 5 posts...like a snippet of each...or something like that.

I could possibly work on that...

Hmmm. I'll take a look but before I'll add new features I have to sweep any bugs found.

Thats the error I got

Silly me. Forgot to add MySQL command.
Download new ZIP and run update.php or run in phpMyAdmin:

ALTER TABLE user ADD newsfader smallint (6) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0;

Did you know that the older one u had didnt work in netscape?

I went back to the old one. Messing with the mysql database allways goes wrong for me

#21 03-01-2001, 04:02 PM

You won't mess up anything. It just alters table user. One new field created. That's all.

Netscape, as usual, has problems with DHTML and Javascripting.

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