Awesome! I don't have to spend hours doing it manually anymore.
Just FYI though, pop_colorchooser.asp opens fine in explorer but shows up really odd in netscape. That's ok though, I can live with that.

Nice to hear it. I dont expect many users to be using Netscape 4.x
I would normally have tested the mod in Netscape 4.7 before I released it. . . but I cant even log into the snitz exchange with it anymore.

I never tested it on HuwR's. . . I would expect that it might cause conflicts though because HuwR has those color templates.
Can you give me a link to your forum?

Did you get the lines in Config.asp??? Looks like your problem is there.

yea i put everything in. but on the admin config colors file...
i had changed this
quote:
<%
if Request.Form("Method_Type") = "Write_Configuration" then
for each key in Request.Form
if left(key,3) = "str" or left(key,3) = "int" then
strDummy = SetConfigValue(1, key, ChkString(Request.Form(key),"SQLstring"))
end if
next
Application(strCookieURL & "ConfigLoaded") = ""
%>
to this because when i left it your way i got an error:
quote:
<%
if Request.Form("Method_Type") = "Write_Configuration" then
for each key in Request.Form
if left(key,3) = "str" or left(key,3) = "int" then
strSql = "UPDATE " & strTablePrefix & "CONFIG_NEW "
strSql = strSql & " SET C_VALUE = '" & ChkString(Request.Form(key),"SQLstring") & "'"
strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE C_VARIABLE = '" & key & "' "
my_Conn.Execute (strSql)
end if
next
Application(strCookieURL & "ConfigLoaded") = ""
%>
other than that i did everything to the T

You might have to ask him about it then.
HuwR's forum already has a color chooser, so the big advantage of this mod is the added support for image background.
I achieved this by taking the two variables backgroundColor and backgroundImage and putting them together
backgroundColor = backgroundColor & """ background=""" & backgroundImage
You can accomplish this same hack by just doing that in your background color input box on HuwR's config_colors
Just put inquote:
colorname" background="backgroundimage.gif
It will accomplish the same thing. The disadvantage to this method is that each time you go back to edit the colors you have to put that info in again  .

Yeah I wouldn't worry about that. Thanks to your active users mod I see that so far I'm the only person on my entire board using Netscape 4.x! (out of 80 or so members)

Hi,
Could you put your download link directly to a zip file? Right now, it simply points to your forum. I went looking in a Forum called Ls3k Mods (the obvious spot), but it wasn't there. Should we really be searching all over the place?
Hate to be critical about this kind of thing when you provide a mod for the community, but if we can't download it, what's the point? 
Cheers!
