Integrated MSN Hack

Hi guys. I made this hack because I was sick of just having the standard messenger fields, so I decided to make a hack that integrated the MSN Messenger Handle professionally in like the other ones. Some screenies below:

Register & Edit Profile:



User Profile View:



Postbit View:



As you can see this is integrated, and is quite different from Anime-loo's hack.

Install instructions updated!
Extra ability added - View MSN Info in Private Messages

PHP Code:

<SCRIPT language=VBScript id=mcvbs 
src="mc.vbs"></SCRIPT><SCRIPT language=VBScript event=onReadyStateChange for=mcvbs> 
If mcvbs.readyState="complete" And Not isDrawn_ Then 
isDrawn_=True 
DrawInitialState 
End If 
</SCRIPT> 
<SCRIPT language=VBScript event=onload for=window> 
If Not isDrawn_ Then 
isDrawn_=True 
DrawInitialState 
End If 
</script> 
<script language=VBscript> 
Function AddThisEmail(stremail) 

If HasMsgrApp Then 
MsgrApp.LaunchAddContactUI(strEmail) 
end if 

End Function 
</SCRIPT> 

<IMG id=mctrack height=1 alt=""> 
<SPAN id=appload 
style="DISPLAY: none"></SPAN> 
<br>
<a href='vbscript:AddThisEmail("$msnhandle")'><img src=$msnimg border=0></a></center>
<Div Style="display:none">
      <script language="JavaScript" src="http://m1.nedstatbasic.net/basic.js">
</script>


        <font color="#003399" size="3"><script language="JavaScript">

<!--

  nedstatbasic("ABLLlwVVIdwIJ5qGuvn+ceABD/Pg", 1);

// -->

</script> 


I'm almost done with my hack that does that so stay tune

i'm having problems understanding what this is telling me to do. Can someone break this down for me exactly?

1. Modofy the database (*Database* - Change this to your database name)

ALTER TABLE `*Database*`.`user` ADD `msn` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL;

^^^^^^^^^^

That's what I said. :classic:

just use this in PHPMyAdmin:

[sql]
ALTER TABLE `user` ADD `msn` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL;
[/sql]

man i must be dumb man because i cant find a phpmyadmin file.

any help?

[scsa20]

you need to get PHPMyAdmin, ususaly most host comes with PHPMyAdmin alreadly installed for you, with others you need to install it yourself. do a search on the web for PHPMyAdmin

[Roody]

ok two questions regarding this hack. first off i have installed PHPMyAdmin on my server. Do i need to add it into my forums directory or can it reside anywhere on my server? Second, where do i go now SCSA to put that info you listed? Which particular file do i tweak?

There is a bug in the HTML register code.

Change:

7. In registeradult and registercopper templates find:

<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><normalfont><b>AOL Instant Messenger Handle:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#F1F1F1"><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" name="aim" size="25" maxlength="20"></normalfont></td>
</tr>

and under it:

<td bgcolor="#DFDFDF"><normalfont><b>MSN Messenger Handle:</b></normalfont></td>
<td bgcolor="#DFDFDF"><normalfont><input type="text" class="bginput" name="msn" size="25" maxlength="20"></normalfont></td>
</tr>

You missed off adding a <tr>

Nice hack.
