I've tried to adjust the colors in the header.asp file. Anyone have the proper syntax to make the change take effect. I found that the old way of
scrollbar-face-color:#FF7F00;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#FF7F00;
scrollbar-track-color:#440000;
scrollbar-shadow-color:'000000';
scrollbar-highlight-color:'000000';
scrollbar-3dlight-color:'000000';
scrollbar-darkshadow-Color:'000000';

doesn't take hold and causes the forum to crash when I upload it. I'm inserting it between the style sheet tags.

Any help would be great

Chris

Add this instead:
		"scrollbar-face-color:#FF7F00;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-arrow-color:#FF7F00;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-track-color:#440000;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-shadow-color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-highlight-color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-3dlight-color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-darkshadow-Color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _

I tried to paste that code in and right after I uploaded it the forum goes to an error 500.

Here is the code spliced in

"<style type=""text/css"">" & vbNewLine & _
"<!--" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-face-color:#FF7F00;" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-arrow-color:#FF7F00;" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-track-color:#440000;" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-shadow-color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-highlight-color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-3dlight-color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
"scrollbar-darkshadow-Color:'000000';" & vbNewLine & _
"a:link {color:" & strLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strLinkTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
"a:visited {color:" & strVisitedLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strVisitedTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
"a:hover {color:" & strHoverFontColor & ";text-decoration:" & strHoverTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
"a:active {color:" & strActiveLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strActiveTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
".spnMessageText a:link {color:" & strForumLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strForumLinkTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
".spnMessageText a:visited {color:" & strForumVisitedLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strForumVisitedTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
".spnMessageText a:hover {color:" & strForumHoverFontColor & ";text-decoration:" & strForumHoverTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
".spnMessageText a:active {color:" & strForumActiveLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strForumActiveTextDecoration & "}" & vbNewLine & _
".spnSearchHighlight {background-color:" & strSearchHiLiteColor & "}" & vbNewLine & _
"input.radio {background:" & strPopUpTableColor & ";color:#000000}" & vbNewLine & _
"-->" & vbNewLine & _
"</style>" & vbNewLine & _


Still kills the forum. I restore it to the original file and no problem

Thanks
Chris

Sorry about that. You used single quotes while you shouldn't (use #000000 instead of '000000') and there was nothing assigned to those values.
Add the following instead:
		"body {" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-face-color:#FF7F00;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-arrow-color:#FF7F00;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-track-color:#440000;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-shadow-color:#000000;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-highlight-color:#000000;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-3dlight-color:#000000;" & vbNewLine & _
		"scrollbar-darkshadow-Color:#000000;" & vbNewLine & _
		"}" & vbNewLine & _

this code is doing the same thing. everytime i paste it in and upload it to the server, I keep getting an error 500. soon as I restore it back to the original file it works just fine. Any way I can email the file and you can check it out or test it for me to see if it will function for you?

Please open the inc_header.asp in a text editor and save it as a plain .TXT file. Then upload that to yourserver and post a link to it here. That way if I can't take a look, someone else will.

I have tested the code I gave last time and it worked without problems on my unedited, straight-out-the-box local test forums. I really don't see why it wouldn't work for you too.

looks like you used the wrong kind of editor to edit your file. When you pasted the codes I gave you, it changed the instances of & vbNewLine & _ to &amp; vbNewLine &amp; _ , which will obviously not work.

Please open your inc_header.asp in a text editor such as Notepad or SourceEdit and remove the codes you added last time, and re-add the codes I've given in my previous reply. Then save the file and it will work.
