Nexia's Alt/Title Tags for sub-forums · **Released**: 05-12-2009

Actually, when you want to be fully XHTML compliant, you need to have alt content for your icons, and a title content for your links... vBulletin sub-forums have no alt/title tags, and this is not good.

So here is the little quicky to change this situation...

For both templates "forumhome_subforumbit_nopost", "forumhome_subforumbit_post", edit the tags like this:

you will find

Code:

alt=""

and will replace with

Code:

alt="$forum[title]"

then you find

Code:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]">

and you replace with

Code:

<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]" title="$forum[description]">

that's all... everything is supposed to work like planned, when you hover the sub-forum icon, you will see the title of the forum itself, and when you hover the link, you will see it's description.

you can modify this by using anything other to fit your needs.

It gets a little quirky when you have HTML in your forum description, but nice.

i think there is a small javascript on dynamicdrive.com which answer that problem, by replacing the html with its result in the hover... but i can not add that to the addon.

Thanks for the heads up. I just took out the 3 HTML links I had in 3 separate sub-forums for now. Lookin' good!

Besides being quite rude to you in that other thread a few weeks ago (fogive me, you caught me @ a bad time) I still like you AND yes you can, all you have to do on Dynamic Drive is visit the forums and ask ddadmin for permission to use/include it in your mods... He is very nice and gave me permission to release any DD script/code as or used in a vb mod if credit is given.

Nice, thanks. I really like a lot of the hacks you've recently released.
