Signature Size Warning
Posted: Jun 10 2004, 02:19 PM Forum Codes & Modifications View full topic
When you have put a limit on the signature size, here's a code to make your members aware of when their sig is too big. When a too big signature is found, the box which has the signature in it (a signature is put in a DIV element) will be resized to the width and height you specify and, if you want it, a scrollbar is shown.

When you have put a limit on the signature size, here's a code to make your members aware of when their sig is too big. When a too big signature is found, the box which has the signature in it (a signature is put in a DIV element) will be resized to the width and height you specify and, if you want it, a scrollbar is shown.

.toobigsig {

There are some lines of interest in this code, you can edit them to suit your needs.

Code:

.toobigsig { border: 2px solid red }

This determines the style the sigs get when they are too big. Default is a 2 pixels wide red border around it, but you can make the signature disappear:

Code:

.toobigsig { display: none }

Code:

.toobigsigtext { font-weight:bold; color:red }

This determines the style of the text that will be displayed (if you're using it, see below) under the signature when it's too big.

Code:

sigWidth = 550 sigHeight = 150

These two numbers are the maximum width and height that signatures may have, in pixels.

Code:

tooBigText = 'Your signature is too big. Please make it ' + sigWidth + 'x' + sigHeight + ' pixels or smaller'

This line specifies the text that will be displayed beneath the sig when it's too big. Delete this line if you don't want a text.

Code:

showScroll = true

When a sig is too big, the box around it will get scrollbars. Remove this line when you don't want this to happen.
