Seems like this could easily be made into a bbcode by making a bbcode that says:

Code:

<span class="rainbow">{param}</span>

Any reason that wouldn't work if this mod was already installed?

The only thing different in vb4 would be the line:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="$vboptions[bburl]/clientscript/rainbow.js"></script>

Which is not the smartest way of doing this anyway, you should just edit it to the URL of your forum, something like:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/forums/clientscript/rainbow.js"></script>

if your forum is in the "/forums/" directory or just:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/clientscript/rainbow.js"></script>

if your forums are in the root. That will work on vb3 or 4.

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