Hello,
This is a very small modification and in the same time it is my first hack.

What it does: when you turn your forum off, the letters for what ever you write in the field for the reason of closing the forum will be moved (like typing).

Time to install: ~ 1 sec.

Demo: Click here.

How to install: in the field for the reason of closing the forum, just place the content with the following: (of course you can change the content reason).

PHP Code:
<span id="typing">


Sorrythe board is unavailable at the moment while we are testing some functionality.
<
br>
We will be back soon...
<
br>

</
span>

<
script type="text/javascript">

interval 100// Interval in milliseconds to wait between characters

if(document.getElementById) {
  
document.getElementById("typing");
  if(
t.innerHTML) {
    
typingBuffer ""// buffer prevents some browsers stripping spaces
    
it 0;
    
mytext t.innerHTML;
    
t.innerHTML "";
    
typeit();
  }
}

function 
typeit() {
  
// mytext = mytext.replace(/<([^<])*>/, "");     // Strip HTML from text
  
if(it mytext.length) {
    
typingBuffer += mytext.charAt(it);
    
t.innerHTML typingBuffer;
    
it++;
    
setTimeout("typeit()"interval);
  }
}
</
script

And please post a text file.

Thanks for installing and your replies

- Yes, it is not exactly a hack, it likes a vb tip as ZIKI-SET said.

- As you can see from the demo, I think it will not draw a lot from the server. Also, in the same time, the forum is closed, so no more load.

- a txt file was added.

Many thanks

Indeed. To fit into this Forum, (as per the box at the top) it must use a hook.

Doesn't appear to use a hook to me..

Why would you need a hook for this when all you have to do is replace the text with it?

You could use global_start, I would think.

EDIT: Ahhh, ok, I get what you meant. Sorry about that.

Wrong forum.
