Looking at is more and more, I would like to make one suggestion/opinionated observation:

When you have the category minimized, personally, I think it would look better if you could use the original size of the table (meaning, currently, with your implementation, when a user minimizes the category, the height is larger than if the information was not there). Perhaps a simple font size adjustemnt.

Let me know what ya think (or if I've totally confused you..hehe)

I have tried following the readme.txt for this mod. However, I get an ASP error at or near my line 246, which is the following code, from step 5:

quote:
if chkDisplayHeader then
<tr>
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_catsumm.asp" -->
</tr>
chkDisplayHeader = false
end if

i got it working. but step five remains confusing. it collapses, but leaves a big black table cel hanging out in the world. did i put this in the right place:

---Step 5:

Add the following line after the above code but before the tag <tr>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<% if Request.Cookies(HideForumCat) <> "Y" then %>
---


<%
if chkDisplayHeader then %>
<tr>
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_catsumm.asp" -->
</tr>
<%chkDisplayHeader = false
end if
if Request.Cookies(HideForumCat) <> "Y" then
'## collapse cats

Response.Write " <tr>" & vbcrlf & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ align=center valign=top>" & vbcrlf

I tried that, and I still got an error. It errored on the <% this time. I'm stumped.

This is because the column "Last Post" is shown in the same row as category name. Hope this makes it clear.

Vision or Thoughts! They go very deep.

You forgot the <% %> tags. The code is goes as below:

<%if chkDisplayHeader then %>
<tr>
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_catsumm.asp" -->
</tr>
<% chkDisplayHeader = false
end if
%>


Hope it gets you working. Thanks!

You might want to check where you placed the "end if" explained in step 6.

would you kindly post the sections of your default.asp for step 5, both this and the end if. again, it works, but it doens't look right. big black box.

new thing:
after installing your mod, if i go to change config, the whole script now pukes.

thanks!

Hi,
I'm having problems installing this too.
Could you post a sample default.asp file with comments around the changes. I think this would clear things up alot.

I noticed your site has collapse/expand for the individual catories. This MOD seems to only collapse/expand every categories. Do I need to install another MOD before this one ? Could this be why myself and others are having difficulty implementing it ? If another MOD is needed, can you tell me which one.

Thank you in advance

It works fine. I will check why you are having problems and update you all on it.
