Havent switched to IE7 yet.
Most people I know are still using 6 but Im sure its a matter of time.

If you do valid css...it will work in Firefox and in Most cases IE. That will be even easier now with IE7.

The major differences will ocur when you have IE specific css hacks...(which is a no no now, you should't be doing them).

There are some fixes that dont act like hacks but are specific to the browser.
Such as the display:inline property.
(try throwing it in when you get a whacky spacing issue in a floated element in IE. for instance.)

Anyways Im super happy that IE is progressing.
The worst was IE 5....and occassionaly I get stuck in IE 6..but its usually ultimately a result of invalid systax somewhere....
NOW....
When we are up to CSS 3...the fun stuff is really going to happen!

We are Working on a css theme for XOOPS at the moment..

I just wanted to confirm that the latest does work rather well. Thanks for a great mod. We have it on our site now just as extra..

great, thanks!

try setting the height and width of the li first.
Which for background images is imp.

and then we can trouble shoot

Set the line-height to the same height you define as well.
This will keep your text centered verticly in the li.
The padding-left of the li will then need to be the width of the arrow.

well Im guessing it will show a deficit for the previous month. Which would still be the amount to raise? At least thats what we are counting on.

Manually adding ..Yeah I agree.

But you can alawys hand code a name into the template I suppose.

we need to do a fund drive on our site with a specific amount. We installed the donation module and it works great.
But we are trying to do a one time fund raiser at the moment.

To accomplish this we set all mothly amounts to 0 except one. Which has the amount we are trying to raise.

Will this work when next month rolls around? Or is there another way.


Bonus Question:
What happens when someone asks to be recognized but makes a donation when not logged in? Does it pull a name from their pay pal account? Or can they specify?

-Thanks

Greets, I had been searching for awhile so Im digging up this old post.

I've had the news module 1.44 for quite some time,
I see the options you all speak of.

But I cant get the suckker to display navigation at all.

Is it possible it's conflicting with a spotlight module we are using?

We are currently trying to work on a new theme and it occured to us that there has been this great feature all along.

But no matter what we do we cant get it to display..at all.
The entire block is nada...
I took a look at the template..and it also appears there is nothing different in it/perhaps our news update went awry? (yet the block admin does not represent that)

Hi, thanks for sharing that:

Roughly lines 205-215

Nothing like this fix was on the myads_2_0_4jp version-and so could be applied it appears..
But in the myAds2.05_jp_13_malaika version there is the following (for comparisons)



?
FYI hmm

HAte to throw this out there..but is that JP version even compatable with XOOPS 2.14? And I agree if it's fixed someone should note it here as well,maybe provide an updated download? (the JP version I downloaded, saw appears to be a patch but I couldnt read the read me file so not sure, but I noticed it was missing the familiar cache folder etc. so not sure if it's just different or a patch.)

It'd be much appreciated, Thank you!

Well put.

Having used XOOPS for the past 3.5 years..I agree.
It's sad that it forks so often but that often happens I guess, (in fact I was wondering where the likes of ono and catz and others had gone, but our best to them they have contributed immensly). And I hope there are never ill feeling in that regard.

Now With regard to joomla....

It looks nice doesn't it? I was tempted for a bit..briefly.. But when you get down to it..it's pretty wimpy compared to XOOPS IMO. We can use a better theme to show of this XOOPS site..sure...but we dont come here for pitch we come for info and exchange of ideas right?. Alot of new CMS these days have really slick looking site fronts...but wheres the meat? (if you want to know how flexible the look and feel of XOOPS truly can be..just visit any of of the scores of theme devlopers here)

Now don't get me wrong I think it's great these other cms exist. Everything pushes everything to be better...thats how the web has gotten where it is today!

but
Xoops can be as simple (used as a blog) or as complex (a community, news etc) as you want. our biggest fault if anything is that we tend to want to add too much, and (as we are learning at our site ,tend to overwhelm).
LOL

Now one thing I will give mambo and joomla;credit for is their effort to make more accessible, web standards system.
We gotta really work on this into the core..

However, XOOPS is still moving forward in that front and with XOOPS factory and others at least starting with the themes, highlighting this, there is more to come.

In fact our small team (of moderators at our humble XOOPS powered site) is inspired too and working on our first css based theme...with more accesible features(itll be a bit but we'll get there, we'll let all know when ever we finish,) And Soon I know everyone will be making these kind of themes too! (And then we can focus on the core templates..and moe)
---
So keep the faith. Make sure you really develop/utilize/maximize the most basic modules first, You'll find them powerful. There are so many simple things to transform and utilize some of them. Then..if you get a little tired of one.. theres scores and scores more to uncover.


Just face it..
Xoops KIX!
