this forum effect

[ozzie2009]

Hi all,

I am very interested in how the owner got the effect on his forum in the link below.

What i mean is when you go through the forum it highlights it a different colour.

Any ideas?

The url

Thanks in advance

He is using a fairly old technique actually.

open template: "forumhome_forumbit_level2_post"

Find:

<td class="alt1Active" align="$stylevar[align=left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">

Replace with:

<td class="alt1Active" align="$stylevar[align=left]" id="f$forum[forumid]" style="cursor:hand;" onmouseover="this.className='alt2Active';" onmouseout="this.className='alt1Active';" onclick="window.location.href='forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]';">

You can change the colors of the backgrounds in alt1Active and alt2Active in Main CSS

...Also for subforums (in forumdisplay) open forumhome_forumbit_level1_post and find:

<td class="alt1Active" colspan="2" align="$stylevar[align=left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">

and replace with:

<td class="alt1Active" colspan="2" align="$stylevar[align=left]" id="f$forum[forumid]" style="cursor:hand;" onmouseover="this.className='alt4Active';" onmouseout="this.className='alt1Active';" onclick="window.location.href='forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]';">
