| old quotes in posts won't be affected unless you edit them individually, then they would use the new style |

| You have made some very good looking changes. Your post displays are very cool. What changes from Marcel's code did you make? |

It would be nice if it looked like ENIGMA's but the author was moved up to the top row so it read

| I hate to beat this subject to death but the potential for having messed up posts is worrisome. David or Enigma, moving the Originally posted by author up should be no problem right? Do yall recommend doing this mod? I guess you do Enigma since you did it.... |

Would be hard for me to explain adequately I'm sure, might be best if
you have a look at my files?
inc_func_common.txt and inc_func_posting.txt

I did have it where "quote:" was down below with the
Originally posted by: line but couldnt figure how to move it
up - do you have any ideas because thats what I was originally
shooting for  Thats why I gave it nested tables in the layout

mod matter, please reply if possible....

I found 2 instances of: Originally posted by in post.asp
note: I added spaces between [ ] below so it would show right
if strRqMethod = "ReplyQuote" then
TxtMsg = "[ quote][ i]Originally posted by " & chkString(rs("M_NAME"),"display") & "[ /i]" & vbNewline
TxtMsg = TxtMsg & "[ br]" & rs("R_MESSAGE") & vbNewline
TxtMsg = TxtMsg & "[ /quote]"
end if
end if
end if
and
if strRqMethod = "TopicQuote" then
TxtMsg = "[ quote][ i]Originally posted by " & chkString(rs("M_NAME"),"display") & "[ /i]" & vbNewline
TxtMsg = TxtMsg & "[ br]" & rs("T_MESSAGE") & vbNewline
TxtMsg = TxtMsg & "[ /quote]"
end if
end if
Any ideas on just how I would modify this to move it up into
the table where I now have "quote:" ?

Got mine working
http://www.uk-mkivs.net/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=20790
If you use the full bordered table, there is quite alot of code that you can actually remove
Another important note, if you are changing the style of the quote, you shouldn't replace the code in inc_func_posting.asp, you should add to it, if you replace it then old quote styles will not get converted back to forum code if you edit the post. |

| You can't move the author up, tried that, too tricky! I think you would need to move "Quote:" down, i'll give it a try tomorrow |

Looks good David, I too will try to play around a bit
with it and see what I can come up with myself.
And can you show what you mean by "add to it" instead of
removing/commenting out the part in inc_func_posting.asp ? |

Posts are stored in the database as HTML, if you replace the code in inc_func_posting.asp then try to edit "posts with quotes" that were made prior to replacing the [quote] code then they will not convert back to forum code for editing.
Therefore you must add to and keep the old code for converting old style quotes. If you look at the base code for 3.4.03 there are 2 methods for converting quotes, one which is commented for compatibilty with older versions of snitz. |

| just to add, this does not apply to inc_func_common.asp, you must replace that line of code |

If you want to move the name to the top of the quote, you can do this in post.asp
if strRqMethod = "TopicQuote" then
TxtMsg = "[ i]Originally posted by " & chkString(rs("M_NAME"),"display") & "[ /i][ quote]" & vbNewline
TxtMsg = TxtMsg & rs("T_MESSAGE") & vbNewline
TxtMsg = TxtMsg & "[ /quote]"
end if
Do it for ReplyQuote also |

thanks cripto9t, I tried moving the [ quote] as you showed here
and it just moved Originally posted by author out of the
table alltogether and just above it (above the 1st cell w/quote:)
any further ideas?
