this messed up my board with the code at the top

.thtcolor {
COLOR: {tableheadtextcolor};
}
.mytable { border: 1px #616889 solid; background-color: #EBECF1; font-family:
Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #333333;
text-decoration: none;}
</style>

untill i took the < /style > out then it worked a treat ?????

Works beautifully

Id like to point out in the instructions of this mod, the closing </style> tag, now in these instructions it says to replace with this code, if you do as per the instructions, your NOT removing the original closing </style> tag.

So what is the correct install for this mod?

If you only replace as per instructions, your going to leave a lot of code hanging in your header looking offly ugly.

1. Login to your Admin Control Panel
2. Scroll down the left menu and find "Styles" (Click Modify)
3. Find the "Header Insert" section find:

.thtcolor {
COLOR: #000000;
}

4. Replace it with the following and Click save (You may need to modify the colors):

.thtcolor {
COLOR: #000000;
}
.mytable { border: 1px #616889 solid; background-color: #EBECF1; font-family:
Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; color: #333333;
text-decoration: none;}
</style>

Note:

Im running vb 2.2.6 and vbportals, if that makes a difference?

All you are doing is adding CSS code into your style sheet. You just need to make sure that any code you add is before the </style> tag. Oh, and there should only be one </style> tag.

Thanks for a simple, attractive solution!

I accidentally deleted the vB code tag for the quote function in the Custom vB Codes at the Control Panel! I would like to get this back but I do not know the codes for this. Can anyone please tell me what codes I must fill in for the following...

Again, thanks again.

w00t d*mn nice m8

thanks -- worked on the first try

was my first mod too!

oh and this is my first post here -- thanks for the great site!

ok -- was working great - now it doesnt-- here is what i have done:

installed the quote box mod in 2 seperate styles -- works in both no problem

install the page nav blocks in 1 mod and then the quote box does not work in that style

removed both styles - (back to default) tried again
same results -- seems to work untill i add the code into the headinclude for the page nav blocks

any ideas?
