First of all I am not the original author or the brains behind
this mod, I have just re-written it to be more easy to install and
more compatible with the latest version of snitz.
The original authors topic is Here
This has been tested on a clean install of Snitz Forum Version 3.4.05
with access database. The instructions included in the zip file are
based on a clean install, although it should be easy enough to
install on an already moded forum.

That won't fix anything, because the "gototop" hasn't been defined. |

Ok fixed that too...
Response.Write "<script language=""javascript"">" & vbNewline & _
"function gotoBottom(){" & vbNewline & _
"window.scrollBy(0,1000);" & vbNewline & _
"}" & vbNewline & _
"window.onload = gotoBottom;" & vbNewline & _
"</script>" & vbNewline & _
"<meta http-equiv=""Refresh"" content=""60; URL=shoutbox_entries.asp"">"
Change:
"window.onload = gotoBottom;" & vbNewline & _
with
"window.onload = gotoTop;" & vbNewline & _ |

Sorry for double posting. I fixed the problem of msgs disappearing, but now:
I reversed the order msgs get written: from top to bottom, but shoutbox keep auto scrolling down to bottom, how to fix it? I saw this question has already been asked few times, but wasn;t replied. Thanks |

I am having a problems with this mod, messages randomly disappear, you see a SS of the table: msgs from 23 to 65 are lost. This happened after I wrote a new msg.

Hi, my shoutbox started acting up, after a certain number of shoutx it stops accepting new shouts (so I have to erase older shouts), but even so, some shouts disappears randomly.
This MOD worked fine for few months, now I am having this problem.
My forum is at: www.LuciferLegion.com in case you need to take a look.
I hope I can find a solution for this, and thanks for your help :) |

I must admit I have never had the freezing issue with the shout box. |

To increase the height of the shoutbox area, look for the following line (appx 107) in "inc_shoutbox.asp".Change that to say:
Change the value (in red) until you get your desired size.< |

How can I make shoutbox taller so that more msgs are shown?

Thanks Carefree. Your advise is good! I will optimise the database too. =)< |

Well I reduced the size in the database for space reasons. I do not see any way that the size could cause a locking issue, but I won't say that it couldn't happen.< |

Ok no problem. I will take a screenshot if the error crop up again. But what do i need to do for the member_name field? Edit the field size to 75 in the database? Does this help in the error? Or is it a mean to optimise the database?

Take a screenshot, in case it's being caused by an image. Press Alt-PrtScr. Open wordpad, paste it in there. Save it on the web so we can see it.

Alright! Thanks Carefree. I am not sure how the freeze came about also... Its rather random. What should i do to help when the freeze happens again? So far the only thing i can feedback is that the freeze simply don't allow new message to be added or shown unless all the existing messages is cleared from the shoutbox.< |
