This was made by request, however i may of gone a little over the top, doing more than requested, but hey, more = good, right?
Anyway, what does this do? Description:
The "Advanced Recipients List Control" creates a GUI (General User Interface) to easily adapt Recipients to your PM list in an extremely easy way, with no manual work required or knowing of full usernames.
Features:
- GUI (General User Interface)
- Search - (You may input full usernames, or just part, the search will return multiple results if more than 1 are found)
- Add Recipient - (Select the user from the results drop down list, hit insert, and bam, there in the list!)
- Remove A Recipient - (Added one by mistake? Don't worry, just hit remove and there gone from the list!)
- No refreshing - At All! - (The system will search, add, remove recipients, and all this is dynamic, controlled by javascript, allowing fast and easy usability)
- Full compatability in FireFox (and possibly other browsers too, havn't tested though)
Version 2.0 Features:
- Recipients shown in 2 columns (instead of 1 big column)
- Buddy List is shown to add buddies to recipients list easily
- Table layout improved, just a little neatened structure
- Bug Fix for Arcade collision fixed

I'd like to make the selected recipient bold so it stands out. Could you please tell me if that is possible and where in javascript I may do so?
Thanks.
Installed and works great for me! Unfortunately some of my users are having difficulties. The top portion (that shows the recipients) doesnt show up for some of them and I have checked that their editor is the standard one. They search for a member, click add and a box pops up saying may have zero recipients. We have cleared the cache, changed the editor back and fourth and even had them reboot (ok, that was just for fun :devious: ) and still no joy. Any ideas?
Quoted from a user "Works fine with my 4 browsers (IE, Mozilla, Firefox and Opera)."
There's an issue with hitting RETURN after typing part of a username. People feel that they issue the search command, but in fact the Send PM button is activated (by default when the page private.php is loaded ?) It can happen that PM's will be sent when a user tries to add Recipients. I don't know about the possibilities of html, but is it possible to activate the button corresponding with the inputfield to stop error ENTERs? Or at least stop the Send PM button to be the default (if that is it).
I've just installed this hack, and it's absolutely fantastic, as userids aren't always easy to remember how to spell when sending PMs.
However, I'd like to echo TsaoInu's comments (quoted below)... I have staff members who can PM up to 50 users at a time, and the result is that the recipients list area becomes huge. It would be nice if there was a way to make it dynamically expand (ie, only show the "filled" slots). Right now I get 50 blank spaces, which makes things really cluttered.
