[Done 1.5.1] Js Validate

[[Unknown]]

Just go into post.php and...

Search for

Code Select Expand

if(strlen($message) > $MaxMessageLen)
   fatal_error($txt[499]);

and replace it with

Code Select Expand

if(strlen($message) > $MaxMessageLen)
   javascript:alert("alert text");

UHHHHHHHH.... that won't work....

yeah, the character limit warning is cool too

it'd be nice to have a character counter under the textarea too, with the character limit next to it... that way you don't have to guess when it's too much

[Anguz]

I just found a sweet way to count the characters... check out the form to submit a comment at the bottom of this page:

http://obiewebsite.sourceforge.net/o.php?opp=Tell_to_Friends

try typing something in the fields and look at the right of it

btw, the script is pretty sweet, nice way of promoting the site, I'll include it to my website's design under the nav menu hehe

It also is surprisingly laggy when I type into that box .

Notice that your signature keeps track of the characters left too...

[Anguz]

hmmm... it isn't laggy for me, but it's not good if it is for some...

oh! the signature! I didn't put much attention to that counter before, but now I'm looking at it with new eyes hehehe... I'll see what can be done with that... thx for the hint

(although I should first make that other thing work, remember the delete/modify buttons for the last messages of a member? lol  )

I managed to get it to work with the quick-reply box (you have to be a member to see it) :

I added a partial screenshot.

I've put a piece in ubbc.js :

Code Select Expand

function vietbar(){
   if ((navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1) && (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 4)) {
   document.write('<TABLE cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="150"><TR><TD align="left" width="75" bgcolor="#EEEEEE" colspan="3">');
   document.write('<TABLE cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="150">');
   document.write('<TR>');
   document.write('<TD bgcolor=red width="0"><Img src="YaBBImages/blanko.gif" name="u1" height="12" width="0"></TD>');
   document.write('<TD bgcolor=#F0F0F0 width="150"><Img src="YaBBImages/blanko.gif" name="u2" height="12" width="150"></TD>');
   document.write('</TR>');
   document.write('</TABLE>');
   document.write('</TD></TR></table>');
   }
   else document.write(' ');
}


function f1(a,num){
   x = num - a.value.length;
   if (x < 0) { a.value = a.value.substring(0,num); x = 0; }
   document.u1.width=150*(num-x)/num;
   document.u1.alt=num-x+" karakters reeds gebruikt";
   document.u2.width=150*x/num;
   document.u2.alt=x+" karakters nog te gebruiken";
}



function changeto(e,highlightcolor){
   return true;
}

function changeback(e,oldcolor2){
   return true;
}


And put this in the quickreply part in Display.php :

Code Select Expand

                <INPUT TYPE="RESET" VALUE="Wissen" ACCESSKEY="r">
            <br><br>Aantal karakters nog mogelijk : <script>vietbar();</script></FORM>
         </TD>
        </TR>


It is in dutch, but I guess you can figure out what it should be in english....

How about a login box like this for when your session times out?  THAT would make my day...  Especially since there's nothing telling a user how much time they've got left in their session.

[Anguz]

that's a smart idea

I usually am at my computer and am "always logged-in" but sometimes, at a friend's, my session does time-out and I have to re-type everything
