You do that, you would have to turn HTML on. You could add some code that will allow you to use some HTML code within the Forum Code.

The code Roland posted in that topic only handles the conversion of forum code into html.
Adding a table button would require some additional code changes.

Yes, if you want to know how it works and looks like, take a look here, I've added the table tags to my forum.
You will note that the text content is not formatted, as Roland pointed out in his post.

Here are the required modifications (basically the same as Roland's but with line numbers of a fresh Snitz v3.4.04 install):

Find the following code in inc_func_common.asp (line 474):


			fString = replace(fString, "[hr]", "<hr noshade size=""1"">", 1, -1, 1)

and add the following code below that line:


			'## tables
			fString = replace(fString, "[table]", "<table border=""1"" cellspacing=""0"" cellpadding=""0"">", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "[/table]", "</table>", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "[tr]", "<tr>", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "[/tr]", "</tr>", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "[td]", "<td>", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "[/td]", "</td>", 1, -1, 1)
			'##

Now find the following code in inc_func_posting.asp (line 340):


			fString = replace(fString, "</font id=""code""></pre id=""code"">","[/code]", 1, -1, 1)

and add the following code below that line:


			'## new table creating codes
			fString = replace(fString, "<table border=""1"" cellspacing=""0"" cellpadding=""0"">","[table]", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "</table>","[/table]", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "<tr>","[tr]", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "</tr>","[/tr]", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "<td>","[td]", 1, -1, 1)
			fString = replace(fString, "</td>","[/td]", 1, -1, 1)
			'##

That's all.

(make sure you backup your files before you make any modifications)

Ok perfect i tryed it and it works really fine. but the user has to write all the code. Is it so difficult to add an icon (as list icons) to get automatically the code ?? Which is the page to modify it? at the end i can also substitute the list code with the table code.

Anyway at the end the procedure seems to be not so easy and not so user-friendly, so i'm thinking to another solution. Any idea about it? to create it easier?
i thought to create a dedicate popup windows to acquire the datas and import them in the message. do u understand what i mean??
something like the Injection message mod

and adding (with include i think that popup name page in the post_info.asp) Let me know if it could works

bye ste

OK, here are the instructions to add a "table" button:

Find the following code in inc_post_buttons.asp (line 66):

		"<a href=""Javascript:list();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconEditorList,"Insert List","align=""top""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine

and replace it with the following code:

		"<a href=""Javascript:list();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconEditorList,"Insert List","align=""top""") & "</a>" & vbNewLine & _
		"<a href=""JavaScript:table();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconEditorTable,"Insert Table","align=""top""") & "<a/>" & vbNewLine

Now find the following code in inc_code.js (lines 55-57):


//function AddText(NewCode) {
//	document.PostTopic.Message.value+=NewCode
//}

and paste the following code below it:

function table() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){
		alert("Table tag Builds a table around the enclosed text.\n\nUSE: [table][tr][td]text here[/td][/tr][/table]");
	} else if (basic) {
		AddTxt="[table][tr][td]" + text + "[/td][/tr][/table]";
		AddText(AddTxt);
	} else {
		if (text) {
			txt=prompt("Text to be put into table",text);
		} else {
			txt=prompt("Text to be put into table","Text");
		}
		if(txt!=null) {
			AddTxt="[table][tr][td]"+txt+"[/td][/tr][/quote]";
			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}

Finally find the following code in inc_iconfiles.asp (line 59):


Const strIconEditorUrl = "icon_editor_url.gif|23|22"

and paste the following code below it:

Const strIconEditorTable = "icon_editor_table.gif|23|22"

Now upload a image of your choice for your table button to your forum folder, along with the edited files and you're done.

I have created a simple table button, feel free to use it:

Again make sure you backup your files before editing.

really great it really works fine.

But do u think that would be possible to realize a popup windows where to insert only the value of the cell of the table, without that the user have to do with the html code?? At about me it would be really great, so everybody, even without knowing html code, could post some table.

thanksssssss a lot once again

Have you tried changing the Format Mode to "Prompt" when posting? That would do the trick.
If you would like popup to open in all modes, let me know and I post the required changes here.
