On the registration page, how can I make it to where the hours offset is already on -6 (as opposed to +0)? The reason I am asking is that most people using my forum will be from the same time zone, & it would be easier on them if they didn't have to set it to -6 on their own. Thanks! Oh, and I just thought of a another question... How can I make it to where hitting the Enter key when typing a post will not be double-spaced (I prefer single). |

I have another question (sorry). Why is it that in some posts, such as the one I just made above, the text starts three lines down? Why can't they all start on the first line? |

For your first question you could edit the register.asp page so that -6 is the selected value on the html form. For the other questions the reason for them is that you are using IE, for some reason in IE microsoft have implemented RTE features that when you hit enter it places <p> around your text block. To stop this either use SHIFT -> ENTER in IE, or change to a better browser like Mozilla Firebird where Mozilla have implemented RTE features in a different way so that you don't get these spaces. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

It would require a re-write of most of the forum code to get half hours to work.

Here's my problem: <option value="+" <% If strTimeOffSet = "+" Then Response.Write("selected") %>>+</option> I'm assuming that in this case, for example, the code is saying to check the user's strTimeOffSet & make it the selected item on the list when viewed (this may be the wrong assumption, which would throw the rest of my post off). If it is a new user, however, where is it getting this information? That's the information I would want to change to make this do what I want it to do. |

Thats the code for displaying it, but there are variables use to monitor the values To get the timeoffset to default to different values than + and 0 just edit common.asp and set the values to something like:
Then when someone goes to register it will be prefilled with those values. Is that what you were meaning? ------------- Cheers TheKiwi http://www.infobahn.co.nz - Internet Infobahn - website design and hosting |
