[6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - UBB.Developers

BUG:

needs to be:

Whoops, thanks for pointing that out. Text file updated.

Bookie, you da man. But you already know that.

oh hehe that's what I thought

Nice but it breaks the stock style option of:

Outside borders visible only.

It frames everything. I prefer just the outside as the stock option displays.

I really like it, I might install later on.

I have no choice but to try it. It's a sickness I tell ya.

heheh

Blast! Now you've made me wish I had designed the new Se7enet with a bevel instead of flat, because this is so freakin cool but it just won't match the new site design...

---Jamin

bookie, how might one do this to html tables (not in ubb) i wanna add this to my sites layout

that just looks so cool

nice hack

When I added the bevel colors all went well, till I tried to remove them and got the message that I didn't complete all required fields. The names are in blue in the style template in the CP but it wants me to complete them anyway.

I removed the settings manually via FTP but why would it act like that? could MyStyle have something to do with it?

Stop blaming MyStyle about everything!!!

Just do NOT do these steps:
[code][/code]

You know I love MyStyle, I just didn't know what else was causing it.

Well, I did what you said LK and sure enough I didn't get that error, but it turned the light and dark bevels white.

I guess that's why it's required

That's one really nice thing about using EditPlus...it automatically creates a .bak file for every file you edit.

Hmmm, I never really tested turning it off.

Oh, and to use it on just regular html tables all you need to do really is add:

bordercolordark="lightcolor" bordercolorlight="darkcolor"

in the

tags. Remember to put border="1" also, if you want a thicker bevel make the border number higher. The lightcolor is in the dark field because thats what make it look bevelled.

I prefer this option too...but think the hack is pretty cool -- Any middle ground?? So it only applies to the outside borders??

[ 12-31-2001 08:57 PM: Message edited by: Soul Survivor ]

the hack still works with that option set, but when you have that option set, it will look like there is borders on.

How about an on/off setting in the CP? Throw an If or an Else here and there and BLAM! It kinda tweaked my gradient bars that I seem to have everywhere but I can see some great ways to use this.

Alright, I'll add on/off switch in version 1.1. Coming out next year.

Yeah but it doesnt really regard the option...What would I change to make it not draw the inside borders?

[ 12-31-2001 11:40 PM: Message edited by: Soul Survivor ]

Well, quite bluntly, it can't be done with the method I use in this hack. Because it draws borders around each cell to make it look beveled, the is no setting that allows you to only do it around the outside of the table. Sorry.

hey book mine aproving my acount over at your forum

That hack really does look good on your board. I have no idea what it will look like on mine, but I'll backup my files before trying it. Brilliant idea Bookie

Wow that hack looks pretty cool!!!.... Is it compatible with 6.1.0.2 though?

[ 01-01-2002 10:18 AM: Message edited by: DJSpellBound ]

Hmm, so where in the controlpanel do I edit the bevils?

Can't find it anywhere.

Hmm, where in the controlpanel do I edit the bevils look and colors etc? Just can't find it there! *confused*.

I hacked the board without any problems. Now the forums just looks ugly.

(I'm sorry it came twice. When I reloaded the topic I didn't see me first post -- because the topic was divided in 3 pages)

CP - Style Templates - [choose template]

i got it running on 6.05 last night

Thanks, it worked

Well, my "who is online" hack is at the top of the page. It's didnt get the bevels, anyone know how I can fix that, please?

Go into ubb_forum_summary.cgi, and do the following:

Find:
my ($Online_Wording, $Online_Details, @nullit) = &GetOnlineUsers($username);

my $replace = qq~

Replace With:
my ($Online_Wording, $Online_Details, @nullit) = &GetOnlineUsers($username);

my $replace = qq~

Do the same in ubb_forum.cgi.

I know what you mean, Great hack btw..

Thanks.

Variables, the way you have got it set up, you shouldnt need to do as dende posted, it should work fine. But if it doesnt work you could try that code.

[ 01-02-2002 11:21 PM: Message edited by: Bookie ]

I just wanted to mention, because I'm an HTML fascist, that this mod won't work in Netscape Navigator 4. The bordercolordark and bordercolorlight attributes are nonstanard and not part of the official HTML specification.

Hello!

Thanks for the help. But I have to say it didn't work, sorry. Well, nothing happend. :

It is the Whos Online 4.1 Final latest version

I mean, the who's online field is at the top of the page. Outside the forum, if you know what I mean (Under total Registered Members and Welcome to our newest member etc)

Matt Jacob is of course correct, netscape users will not be cut in on this feature. Though it shouldn't cause any problems in viewing the page with Netscape.

Robban, could I get a link to your forums?

What's Netscape? Oh yeah, that's the browser that use to rule the world when it was still 3.0...

NS3 was a sweet browser...lean, fast and error free.

Yeah, good plan Dende. The only thing that was beveled was my head, so the code does nothing indeed.

Cool, did you test this? Where do you set it for on and off?

oops! Bookie please read my last post! I updated the post with the ON/OFF Switch details

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/05/2002 1:23 AM

Ah, gotcha. But I just finished bevel cells 1.1, see the first post for details on the changes.

Posted By: James Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/05/2002 1:27 AM

ahh wicked! we both had the same principle except u used a seperate "bevel_size" setting and i used the existing "border" option

Posted By: samhain Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/10/2002 3:35 PM

one question as im not a good hacker of any sort.
can this be implemented to work on 6.05

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/10/2002 4:48 PM

It hasn't been tested with 6.05, but it will most likely work. Just be sure to back up your files.

Posted By: samhain Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/10/2002 8:12 PM

thanks for the quick reply

Posted By: bizkit73 Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/10/2002 8:47 PM

nice hack. I had one problem though and it very well may have been something I overlooked or forgot, maybe one of you could help me.

The bevel size doesn't seem to work from the CP. no matter what value I give it, it only gives me a border size of 1. Here is a screenshot of my cp.

It seemed to have made the little color swatches bigger, and there is that god awful greyish-blue bar next to where it has the bevel size. Is this right?

Posted By: RandyM Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/10/2002 8:53 PM

That's exactly what I get too, and if I set the size to zero is still messes with the gradients.

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/11/2002 1:04 AM

Hmmm... wierd. Give me a few minutes and I'll see what the problem is.

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/11/2002 1:10 AM

Found the problem. To fix this open up cp_styles.cgi and do the following:

[code][/code]

Do that step twice and that should fix it. Instructions updated.

Posted By: bizkit73 Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/11/2002 2:46 AM

Now the bevel around the outside of the tables can be adjusted, but nothing happens to the inside of the tables. Not that I really care, cause I like them both set at 1, but just figured I would tell ya. CP still looks the same. It is an awesome hack. I like it. Just needs a little fine tuning.

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/12/2002 10:33 PM

It appears that this hack works in the newest version of Netscape (6.2).

It appears to work fine in netscape at my forums, though I didn't check any others so you may be correct. The bevel size is to adjust the outside borders to make the tables look as if they are sunk into the page more... and I don't think thi inside borders can be adjusted.

Posted By: XRaVeNX Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 01/16/2002 8:59 AM

YAY! Thanks Bookie. This hack r0x0rz my b0x0rz..lol

Any chance this hack will be converted to v6.2.x?

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 02/18/2002 2:42 AM

Actually I'm rewriting it for 6.2. It will be a much cleaner version using CSS.

Should be done in a few days.

Posted By: Cuzz Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 02/21/2002 6:22 PM

ok - times up bookie!

im sooo waiting for this hack!

Shoot me an email when it's ready for 6.2+

Thanks!!

cuzz

Posted By: Bookie Re: [6.1x] Bevel Cells 1.1 - 02/22/2002 2:06 AM

Haven't had time, maybe this weekend I will be able to get the regular HTML one complete. The CSS one will take more time, but will look much better, and have more options for cleaner looks and adjustable colors/sizes for categories and alternate column colors.
