Hi, I'm running phpMyChat and I wish to edit the style a little, does anyone have any experience in this field? I'm not really good at php yet, so I can use all the help I can get. <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> <br />Generally I would like to change the overall layout a little. There is a small txt file there that can be editted so you can for example have the admin link shown but when I do this (change a 0 to a 1) I get all kinds of php errors...<br /><br />Like I said, all help on this subject is highly appreciated.<br /><br />Freddy...<!--content-->
hey I had the same problem trying to edit it. I finally figured out that when I was opening it in notepad, editing it, and then saving it, it was screwing up the comments..<br /><br /><!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->//This is a comment<!--c2--></div><!--ec2--><br /><br />became<br /><br /><!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->//This<br />is a comment<!--c2--></div><!--ec2--><br /><br />and naturally PHP has no idea what is a comment means, so It gave parse errors. I fixed this problem by downloading phpedit <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.phpedit.net">www.phpedit.net</a><!-- w --> and used it to edit the files. No more problems.<br /><br />As for editing the styles, I'm not having much luck with this. The way phpmychat is designed is weird... I'm having a hard time figuring out which files do what and which colors in which files i need to change to change what. If I finally figure it out, I will make a list and post it.<br /><br />Hope this helps <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /><!--content-->
