Well, since I am not able to post in the skins and mods forum, I will have to place it here.
Because of the need there was on my site, I tried to develop something to resize images easily. The way I wanted to be able to do this is by using the [ img] tags, but they have no way of adding the size of an image. So I added the [img=height,width] tags to my forum to be able to do this   [=D>]
If there is any interest, I will try to create a usable update to the forum. The version I wrote this for is version 6.34 by the way, but I guess the way v7 uses the format_post and edit_post include files is pretty much the same, so it probably van be use with that one too. If anyone is willing to test it, just mailto:b_cramer@hotmail.com - email me... As it stands now, I do have the files isolated that need to be updated (just 2 of them) so if anyone wants to be able to give their users this extra feature, just leave a message here... Right now I'm gonna test it with version 7, so expect an update within the hour... |

Update!
I have also managed to implement this feature in v7.beta3! It is not as similar to the old version I hoped, so it took quite some time to actualy find out how it would work... But it's done, so if anyone is interested (if I see how many reactions I've had, I dare doubt it...) you're welcome to drop a line... |

Can you tell me where the image tag is generated for the actual post area? I am trying to add some code to call javascript functions to the image tags, but cant seem to find the exact place that they are generated. I tried a few files, with no luck.

Would be VERY cool to truly resize them, possibly using ASPjpeg, something that would make it upload a smaller image size for people who think that uploading a 300kb image file is a good idea... </thoughts> Gerry |

You can limit the file size of images in the admin, Dergal. If someone were to upload a 300KB image then the admin must have thought it a good idea. Bram, I have a test forum on my home server that I'd be willing to try your mod. Why don't you post the mod as a zip file? ------------- http://webspacegeeks.com - Need Hosting, Domains, Dedicated Servers? http://www.smartergeek.com - web design | pc support | training | podcasts | video production |

Yeah, but one target audience is the idiots out there who can't resize images... which is why ASPjpeg is used by us on our "ecommerce" images applications... maybe I will look at doing a mod thing... |

can anyone please show me where the image tags are generated?
I cannot for the life of me find them, and I am pretty good with code. I removed sections and it had no effect whatsoever. -jack |

you mean the images that are in the posts (clue there) there in the POSTS so the tags are stored in the DB! HTH's As for ASPjpeg, quite a few companies have this or the serverobjects equivalent installed... besides how long before were all going to be using .net? http://www.serverobjects.com/products.htm#aspimage - http://www.serverobjects.com/products.htm#aspimage Gerry

SOLUTION: Thank you Jack for posting that JavaScript. File To Edit: forum_posts.asp Do a search for "<!-- Message Body" (around line 754) Insert the following line above it: strMessage=Replace(strMessage,"<img ", "<img onLoad=" & Chr(34) & "makeFit(this, 600, 600)" & Chr(34)) Then add to the top of the page: <script language="JavaScript"> function makeFit(theImg, maxW, maxH){ This will limit the width + height of images to 600x600 pixels in the forum threads to prevent the table size from expanding. Modify the (this, 600,600) to set your own max amounts. |
