I just installed the mod and it works great.

One thing I think would be a cool addition to this mod would be the addition of links at the top to minimize all categories and another to expand all categories. This way they don't have to wait for the page to refresh between each category switch.

Additionally... you may wish to look at how this mod acts with the category linking mod. If the cat is minimized it doesn't open the cat, and then if you try to open the cat in the cat only view, it takes you back to the default.asp. This simply tells me that the two mods should be worked together (or actually a third mod).

I would love to take a crack at that, but I don't have time... it would be my first asp development work, but since I'm a VB programmer I should be able to do it... but that takes me back to the time thing. Deadlines stink and I have a hugh project on my plate.

Thanks,

Diana

Okay, I pretty much goofed up something with this one.....glad its just my test board.

After I installed this mod on sr4 I get a bar above my forums that lists each forum with the words "valign=top> next to them.

Im still ignorant with code, and I have gone over is several times and havent been able to see where I goofed.

Here is what it looks like.

This is a problem with adding this mod with the "linked categories" mod.

change this:
 Response.Write """ valign=top><a href=""default.asp?CAT_ID=" & rs("CAT_ID") & """><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """ color=""" & strCategoryFontColor & """><b>" & ChkString(rs("CAT_NAME"),"display") & "</b></font></a></td>" & vbcrlf 


to this:
 Response.Write "<a href=""default.asp?CAT_ID=" & rs("CAT_ID") & """><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """ color=""" & strCategoryFontColor & """><b>" & ChkString(rs("CAT_NAME"),"display") & "</b></font></a></td>" & vbcrlf


It will look great after that! I had the same problem.

Diana

Thanks for the help, but I dont have the linked categories mod installed, or that line in my default.asp

Any other ideas? I reinstalled the code twice now with the same symptoms.

Maybe it wasn't that mod, but I had the same problem and that was how I fixed it

Is there anyway to create this mod as a seperate file and include it into the default.asp, or create it as a procedure and place it in the inc_functions.asp file, as I think this would assist "newbies" (like myself) to better implement it.

Thanks

Can someone help here. I keep getting this error when I try to edit my default.asp to include the minimize category mod.

---------ERROR----------
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0409'

Unterminated string constant

/discussions/Default.asp, line 338

Response.Write """ valign=top>
------------------------------^
----END ERROR-------

here is the link to the file:
http://discussions.s5.com/default.asp.

File won't run on this server so you will have to save it to disk, and you can e-mail me at kirrinjones@cwjamaica.com.

Thanks

Reinsnitz,

Tried to download v5, but I got an error at the URL. Could you please check it out for me and then let me know. I get this error

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

Cannot open database ''. It may not be a database that your application recognizes, or the file may be corrupt.

/archive/Default.asp, line 10

when I try to access this url http://forum.snitz.com/archive


Another thing is that my default.asp is currently modified with a few of the mods that I have installed and I don't think that I would want to overwrite it with the v5 default.asp.

So I would just want someone to take a look at my current default.asp and make the necessary adjustments for me.

Thanks again.
