background in thread title input

[tunescool]

i took the page jump box resize code out and the page number went back to the bottom , ive been having a problem with other codes with the page jump too. todge made me a merge folder with thread code i had to put after your page thread code, and i cant use a (thread started by code), it justs gives me some black cell after all the other cells. im sure youve seen it.



or i need to either change my thread description font size or do something, i dont want the thread cells 2 to heighten if theyre too long, you know what i mean, i like my boards at threads 2 lines high

the black column comes from a removal of cells inside a table while one row still spans 1 extra cell. you have a bunch of different codes attacvking the same areas in your forum. the new thread code was incompatible with the merge folder code since they both affected the same cell. both codes need the cell to be untouched in order to work.

if the page jump code causes a bunch of other codes to stop working then I wouldnt use it. adding one code and having to have 6 codes rewritten begins to exacerbate the problem. you rewrite one of those 6 and it causes 3 more to stop working., it becomes a self-defeating endeavor.

well first off, since ive added the buttons my titlebgs changed from 20px high to whatever they are now. someone told me thats the way proboards works around buttons and theres no way to change it back to 20

[Wormopolis]

the only way I can get that row skinnier is by shrinking the button size and shrinking the pagejump input size. the margin around the thing seems to be inherited from the overall table. deleting the table cellpadding affects the ENTIRE table not just 1 row.

alrite, the buttons any smaller than they are will be unreadable. ill have to live with the height of the titlebg and i wont need the page jump box resize. but id still like to keep it gray with the thread title(get rid of the modify profile page and the buttons). can those buttons be replaced with other buttons, im not asking you to make a code?





i took out this, which changed the boxes height, but it still is at 17 px

<script type="text/javascript">
if (document.getElementById('pageNo1')) {
document.getElementById('pageNo1').style.height=document.getElementById('pageNo2').style.height=17;
document.getElementById('pageNo1').style.padding=document.getElementById('pageNo2').style.padding=0;
}
</script>


would it be possible to take out the titlebg row, and put the buttons and the page jump in their own class and keep it connected to the thread list and post? then that class could be kept at 20. im not asking you to make a code now, youre still working on other stuff of mine and other peoples

so adding a background to an input will be universal if you put direct CSS in the headers.

so what you need to do is utilize javascript to add the CSS based on a location check.

for example.. if you want the input cells to be affected on the modify profile page, it would be like:

<script type="text/javascript">
if (location.href.match(/action=(modifyprofile)/)) {
document.write('<sty'+'le type="text/css"> input {background-image: url(URL);} </sty'+'le>');
}
</script>

what would i use for the page jump and post page

[Wormopolis]

page jump appears on action=display and posting page appears on action=(post|modifypost)

so combining them all would be action=(modifyprofile|display|post|modifypost)

[tunescool]

this is how i tried it, doesnt work. what should i do with it

<script type="text/javascript">
if (location.href.match(/action=(display|post|modifypost) /)) {
document.write('<sty'+'le type="text/css"> input {background-image: url(URL);} </sty'+'le>');
border:none;}
}
</script>

<style type="text/css">
.PostWindBGrestyle {background-image: url(http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww95/tunescool/nook/gryl017.gif);}
.TArestyle{background-image: url(http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww95/tunescool/nook/grey12.jpg); border:none;}
}
</style>

you cant have that space between modifypost) /)). it needs to be modifypost)/))

also you didnt put an image URL in.


and why is this in the script: border:none;}

[tunescool]

it doesnt work on the page jump box, and how do i get the border out now? and i dont want the buttons the background, post message, preview etc...

[Wormopolis]

dang.. you are right. thread lists dont have an action. maybe it will be easier to NOT change the inputs on certain pages. what pages do you NOT want affected?

[tunescool]

whatevers left after post, modify post, the thread page or the post page when it gets 2 pages. im not sure i could list everything i dont want

[Wormopolis]

well remember we are looking at affecting ALL inputs. so modify profile would be one. the thread list (when you are inside a board) doesnt have an action with it. it DOES have a "board=" with it.

so lets say any page with board= in it.. what about PMs?

[tunescool]

the text area background is affected pretty much everywhere from what ive looked at. and all the other title inputs are still white. it would be nice to have all the other pages look the same, Send Personal Message, Add Calendar Entry and their modify pages. none of which are affected by the windowbg background but should to look more uniform around the site. while adding stuff could you just put the stylesheet together for me please, this one is getting to confusing for me
