When you don't use the WYSIWIG HTML Editor and you want to insert a smiley in the message, it's position will be at the end of the message. This is really annoying when you're replying to a PM, because the original message will be at the bottom, all smileys end up at the bottom of the message. (i.e. you have to cut&past the smiley-code to get the right position)

In message_form_js.asp change:

replace the AddSmileyIcon function at line 136 with the following code:

JAVASCRIPT wrote: function AddSmileyIcon(iconCode) {  var txtarea = document.frmAddMessage.message;  iconCode = ' ' + iconCode + ' ';  if (txtarea.createTextRange && txtarea.caretPos) {   var caretPos = txtarea.caretPos;   caretPos.text = caretPos.text.charAt(caretPos.text.length - 1) == ' ' ? iconCode + ' ' : iconCode;   txtarea.focus();  } else {   txtarea.value  += iconCode;   txtarea.focus();  } } // Insert at Claret position. function storeCaret(textEl) {  if (textEl.createTextRange) textEl.caretPos = document.selection.createRange().duplicate(); }

In includes/message_form_inc.asp change:

Replace the textarea-code in line 309 with the following code:

HTML wrote: <textarea name="message" cols="57" rows="12" onselect="storeCaret(this);" onclick="storeCaret(this);" onkeyup="storeCaret(this);">

The file emoticon_smilies.asp also needs a change to function properly, see my post below!!!!

Now smileys will get the right position!

had to change the emoticons_smilies.asp too...

At line 79 replace the existing smiley-function with this one:

JAVASCRIPT wrote: function AddSmileyIcon(iconCode) {  var txtarea = window.opener.document.frmAddMessage.message;  iconCode = ' ' + iconCode + ' ';  if (txtarea.createTextRange && txtarea.caretPos) {   var caretPos = txtarea.caretPos;   caretPos.text = caretPos.text.charAt(caretPos.text.length - 1) == ' ' ? iconCode + ' ' : iconCode;   txtarea.focus();  } else {   txtarea.value  += iconCode;   txtarea.focus();  } } // Insert at Claret position. function storeCaret(textEl) {  if (textEl.createTextRange) textEl.caretPos = window.opener.document.selection.createRange().duplicate(); }

I was working on this...

There's only ONE problem with adding the [b] and [/b] tag in BASIC MODE: this script determines the cursor position, if you add the tags it puts the [b] AND [/b] at the cursor position, so you still have to put the [/b] at the right position. One solution is adding a [/b] button: if you clicked the [b] button once, it will be replaced with a [/b] button... (I personally think it's too much work for me to add so much new code, maybe someone else???)

PROMPT MODE works fine...
