Hi,

I've been looking for a mod that changes the way forum quotes work and look.

Something that outputs more like a blockquote in a highlighted box rather than a quote between lines.

Are there any mods of this type [or any quote mods at all] available?

Thanks for any info.

MarcelG has a very nice mod that does this - http://oxle.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3192

This is the Snitz topic where it was announced some time ago - http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=59787

Remark; the example quote posted in that mod on oxle is no longer valid, however the basic idea remains the same (styling your quotebox with CSS).

That's fantastic - being able to change colours and fonts too is exactly what we were looking for.

one further question, is there any way to stop it outputting the 'quote:' bit above the actual box?

Many Thanks

Ofcourse that's possible.
Just replace this line:
fString = doCode(fString, "[quote]", "[/quote]", "<div class=""quoteboxhead"">quote : </div><div class=""quotebox"">", "</div>")

with this one:
fString = doCode(fString, "[quote]", "[/quote]", "<div class=""quoteboxhead""></div><div class=""quotebox"">", "</div>")
or even with this one:
fString = doCode(fString, "[quote]", "[/quote]", "<div class=""quotebox"">", "</div>")
