MarcelG wrote a little MOD that adds some tags - search around here and/or over at oxle.com and you should be able to turn it up.

Thanks,
I read through all 9 pages of that post and it just seems pretty fragmented and un-organized to me.

I appreciate the reference but does anyone have a link to a complete MOD.

I just don't do enough programming to be comfortable with all the "if this then that or maybe a nother thing" type stuff. I like to keep it as simple as possible, my brain fries easily!

My problem is - I know just enough to be dangerous!

Wow Kurt as usual I am amazed at how much you and a few others know about this stuff.
I think even I can follow those instructions.
Thanks again.

Sorry Mark,
I looked at your quote below your signature and mis took that name as being your name...
That is the same kind of stupid mistakes that get me in trouble when programming or trying to follow someone's instructions in these MOD's.

My eyes see one thing and my brain totally gets something else.

Anyway, thanks for your help. It is much appreciated.

Bruno, how about a link to your forum site?

I installed the MOD and it works but I didn't get those icon buttons so the poster can get the proper tags at the click of a button.

I manually wrote the code in and it works great.
So I have improvised for the time being ...like this....

How do I get those icon buttons that you show in your reply?

You may be having the same issue I did.
Mine works but I have to manually enter the appropriate tags.

I did this for the time being:

where are your video icons? you need to edit the file and place them ...



the smilies icons come from inc_smilies.asp file
the missing icons come from inc_post_buttons.asp file

and in post buttons files you should have:

' ADDING MORE BUTTONS FOR VIDEO LINKS
Response.Write	"<br/><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """>Videos:</font> " & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:gvid();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconGVideo,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons200"),"align=""top""") & "</a>" & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:tube();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconYTube,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons201"),"align=""top""") & "</a>" & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:flashv();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconFlash,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons202"),"align=""top""") & "</a> " & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:metacafe();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconMetacafe,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons203"),"align=""top""") & "</a>" & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:myspacev();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconMySpace,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons204"),"align=""top""") & "</a>" & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:qtv();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconQuickTime,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons205"),"align=""top""") & "</a>" & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:wmv();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconWMV,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons206"),"align=""top""") & "</a>" & _
		"<a href=""Javascript:rv();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconRealVideo,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons207"),"align=""top""") & "</a>"


now... I edited and add more video links so, you delete the ones that you dont use, place that code after this line

"<a href=""Javascript:rv();"" tabindex=""-1"">" & getCurrentIcon(strIconRealVideo,fLang("L_I_P_Buttons207"),"align=""top""") & "</a>"



icons for everyone that does not have them (I made them by my self)

BigRigTom

remember that you need the javascript functions as well so when someone click in the icon they get it working placing the correct tag in the message box!

the code should be placed in the inc_code.js file and it's this one:


// Videos
function gvid() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){
		alert("Google Video.\n\nUSE: [gvid]Google Video URL[/gvid]");
	} else if (basic) {
		AddTxt=" [gvid]" + text + "[/gvid]";
		AddText(AddTxt);
	} else {
		if (text) {
			txt=prompt("Google Video URL",text);
		} else {
			txt=prompt("Google Video URL","Text");
		}
		if(txt!=null) {
			AddTxt=" [gvid] "+txt+" [/gvid]";
			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}
function tube() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){
		alert("YouTube Video.\n\nUSE: [tube]YouTube Video URL[/tube]");
	} else if (basic) {
		AddTxt=" [tube]" + text + "[/tube]";
		AddText(AddTxt);
	} else {
		if (text) {
			txt=prompt("YouTube Video URL",text);
		} else {
			txt=prompt("YouTube Video URL","Text");
		}
		if(txt!=null) {
			AddTxt=" [tube] "+txt+" [/tube]";
			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}
function flashv() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){
		alert("Flash Video.\n\nUSE: [flash]Flash Video URL[/flash]");
	} else if (basic) {
		AddTxt=" [flash]" + text + "[/flash]";
		AddText(AddTxt);
	} else {
		if (text) {
			txt=prompt("Flash Video URL",text);
		} else {
			txt=prompt("Flash Video URL","Text");
		}
		if(txt!=null) {
			AddTxt=" [flash] "+txt+" [/flash]";
			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}
function metacafe() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){

			txt=prompt("Myspace Video URL","Text");
		}
		if(txt!=null) {
			AddTxt=" [myspace] "+txt+" [/myspace]";
			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}
function qtv() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){
		alert("QuickTime Video.\n\nUSE: [qt]QuickTime URL[/qt]");
	} else if (basic) {
		AddTxt=" [qt]" + text + "[/qt]";

			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}
function wmv() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){
		alert("Windows Media Video.\n\nUSE: [wmv]Windows Media Video URL[/wmv]");
	} else if (basic) {

			AddText(AddTxt);
		}
	}
}
function rv() {
	var text = getText();
	if (helpstat){

Bruno,
I have tried everything I know to try but so far NADA

I must be missing a step somewhere.
I copied your ICON images into my forum directory.

I updated the 2 files (post_buttons and inc_code) you mentioned and tweeked the code (looks like you had a lang fuction in there I took that out.
The ICON names in the code were all a little off from what you posted and I corrected them.

I finally got the new line under my current icons and I got the work videos: to appear in that new line but still no icons.

I am still messing with it if you get this msg right away any help would be appreciated.
Thx
Tom

the steps are:

1. add the icons to the inc_post_buttons.asp file
2. add the javascript to the inc_code.js
3. add the functions to replace the tag code in inc_func_common.asp (here, there's a lot of code to insert)
4. add the embeding.js to the forum root and link it in the inc_header.asp and inc_header_short.asp
5. add the code to inc_iconfiles.asp

resources:
Video tag
Mod: Embed media in posts
Mod: Using video/flash in your posts!

Yes I do have the language selector cause I use Image Forums 2001

if you get step 1 and 2 you will have the icons in the post and when clicked you will get the message text to show the start and ending tags of that particularly button, right?
