Code to Prevent Karma from Bumping to Profile

[marshabar]

Do you have a hack for this? It's kind of irritating to be bumped off the page just for high fiving someone.

Thank you.

Its a great idea, but that action is done server side. The best you could get is a popup asking if they want to go back to where they just were as soon as it hits the profile page or stay there. an automatic redirect would be TOS violation.

[marshabar]

Could you write a code like that for me, the popup?

Thanks so much for response.

This is the most beautiful ProBoard I have ever seen.

To pm you do I address admin?

[Wormopolis]

you can send a PM to the admin account, but I am cool doing the request in this thread. You are going to need to be patient with me since I dont have internet access right now except this crappy wireless connection I found. I should hopefull have internet next week when the cable company comes.

[marshabar]

I'm not in any hurry at all, good luck getting settled in. Hope it all goes smoothly. Must be hell for you to be without internet!!

That little red streak (worm) through links is so cool.

I tried the color smear code. Works great but it looks much better on the dark background.

Here's my board. Very elementary indeed. I used you text enlarge code. Love it.

[marshabar]

Thanks, Wormopolis.

The hard part about about writing this, is that I can only test it once an hour...

[Wormopolis]

try using karma here to see v1.0

[Wormopolis]

well workis in FF.. IE hates it.

[marshabar]

Thanks for working on this, wormopolis. I think many people will appreciate it.

[Wormopolis]

this is what I have so far. IE is stil lstruggling with something, so I need to figure that out. Firefox works great though.
