New BB tag to do rainbow text... · **Released**: 01-07-2003

This is a fairly simple hack that allows you to create a new BB tag to do
rainbow colors with text. It is only a few lines and the only file affected
by it is admin/functions.php.

You can see a sample output in this thread: http://www.ls1.com/forums/showthread...hreadid=225576

Note1: This hack has been done and tested on VB 2.2.9
Note2: Using other BB tags within the rainbow tags will convert the underlying HTML code in to rainbow text.

Note3: You can find the revised and BB code friendly version in this post

Note4: You can find the version that displays the full spectrum of colors in this post.

I always get the error "Division by zero"

Robink · #63 02-07-2003, 06:29 AM

In particular it sayd this:

Warning: Division by zero in /home/virtual/site13/fst/var/www/html/forums/admin/functions.php on line 844

I tried both versions of the hack

Please Email me a copy of your functions.php.

I get a division by zero error every time someone types in [rainbow][/rainbow] without anything in it. The error only appears on the page at which it's typed but doesn't go away, it just accumulates over time. Otherwise the hack works perfectly, but it's that error which is stopping me from installing it, as not all members are kind enough to NOT type it in.

And way to stop this?

I will correct the bug and post a fix. I'll do that later tonight.

Zzed · #68 04-30-2003, 08:48 AM

I have fixed all the attached versions for the "division by zero" error.

I'm still using version 1 with the code in the functions.php. What would be the fix for that?

Zzed · #70 04-30-2003, 09:16 AM

I fixed all 3 versions.

In function dorainbow()
Look for:

Code:

$len = strlen($code);

Add this directly below it:

Code:

  if($len == 0) {
    return($code);
  }

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