The Mess Hall

I see the countdown ..it causes my FF to freeze. Well if you want countdown gimme the date and I give you Javascript code for it (I suppose you can use HTML as an admin)...otherwise I'll resume my postings after Killzone release...IE is shit.

Countdown is gone
Worked fine for me and im using FF3
post your script, if it's a cpanel cgi script, then I was using the same one.

I haven't got it but I can quickly write it. It would be Javascript, which you have to add to your signature as html, something like that, you can try if this works:

<script>document.write('<button onclick="alert(\'You\\\'ve clicked me!\');">Click me</button>');</script>

PS I dunno why my FF freezes, new laptop, god knows.

it's not big deal, it was only to count down to killzone2 release.

I can still make a ticker with Javascript. Does my example work, have you tried?

it wont work on a php website lol..

unless u put the html into a bbcode or directly into the core file

this is a phpbb forum.

It will Symon, Daz can use full HTML in his posts or signature or anywhere else as he is the admin, the same way we can use limited HTML code on EU Sony forums.

EDIT: sorry Symon I see where you're coming from. Javascript is client side language where as PHP is server side, both can live and work together and have kids :tease

Sy's right, I can create BBcode with it, but unless I edit the core files, HTML is out.
I can't and dont have access to html for my sig either.
The makers have spent a lot of time and energy making sure phpbb3 is and stays xhtml compliant, therefore will not enable html.

Here's your button.

First of, don't get confused, HTML, XHTML = same shit.

If you can create bbcode then you can use it in the signature, in fact we all can use it in our signatures:

3.5.1.7. User Signature

Here you can add, edit, or delete the user's signature.

The user's current signature should be displayed in the Signature form. Just edit the signature by typing whatever you want into the text area. You can use BBCode and any other special formatting with what's provided. When you are done editing the user's signature, click Submit to update the user's signature.
Note

The signature that you set has to obey the board's signature limitations that you currently have set.

So shall I make a ticker then?

make the ticker if you want, I can add it to the bbcode so everyone can use it.

Ok couldn't be bothered to write it myself so I just stole 1 and modified it a bit

Take attached file unzip it and drop countdown.js into http://www.dazbobaby.com/forum/ directory...then add this as bb code:

<script language="JavaScript">
TargetDate = "02/27/2009 9:00 AM";
BackColor = "orange";
ForeColor = "black";
FontSize = "18px";
CountActive = true;
CountStepper = -1;
LeadingZero = true;
DisplayFormat = "%%D%% days, %%H%% hours, %%M%% minutes and %%S%% seconds left to KILLZONE 2 launch...";
FinishMessage = "KILLZONE 2 is here!!! What are you waiting for, soldier?";
</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.dazbobaby.com/forum/countdown.js"></script>
