Dark_wizard did that himself. Mine is better in 3 ways: 1) It's looks better (automatically takes ubb style settings and is centered 2) Uses JS not Java 3) Show UBB annoucements, rather than set headlines Just a thought http://www.iamcal.com

If everyone thinks Cal's is better then I will not continue to work on it. The choice is yours... I do not offer support by EMail or ICQ, please post your question at UBBDev....

Basically, the only bug as I see it is that mine isn't NS compatible yet (due to a tiny problem that i'll fix this week). My links are clickable (duh) and my headlines are taken straight from UBB annoucements (thus, no need to enter information twice). For the moment, email me for hack support since I will no longer be posting to this board. Hope to see you all soon. Just a thought http://www.iamcal.com

It is possible to integrate the UBB's current announcements, if turned on. You can also create userdefined news by controlpanel under "Add News" Options: "Show the lastest reg. Member" "Do not show the lastest reg. member" "Show current UBB-Announcements" "Do not Show current UBB-Announcements" "Show userdefined news" "Do not show userdefined news" Dialog NEWS ADDON in CP ADD NEWS To add a new newsline use the first editbox. HTML and links are allowed. But please use ' instead of ". If the whole line should link to a page then use the second editbox to enter the link. No " again. Add Newsline: Add Newsline-Link (Optional): EDIT / DELETE NEWS The contents of this editbox are the userdefined newslines. Here you can edit or delete old newslines. Change the text in this editbox and press "update" when you're done. a news datarecord consists of "topic", "link", Ensure after editing that the last datarecord may not have an comma as last character!!! hmm?

Dark_Wizard: I am not Java expert however try the java routine from originalhack: but the code is [censored], it won't work with NS and did many errors at the HTML code... NBAustin: Add the code directly underneath: &InputRadioRow("#dedfdf", "Cookie Option", "If you are setting up more than one UBB on a domain, you should elect to have cookies set to the precise directory that that UBB is running in. If you are only running one UBB on your domain, then you can set your cookies more broadly. The default is to set BROADLY.", " Set Cookies to This UBB CGI Directory Only Set Cookies Broadly - Entire Domain"); print< and... the blank screen...hmmm this is a beta-bug with adminpass-cookie. i'll fix the error.
