Mhmm, I haven't really thought about locking the images off. I was hoping members would abide by the rules.
But I think the awards system plug-in could be used to have "unique" images. 

If it's possible to tie it in like that, otherwise I'm not sure. 

Well Im not sure how I could tie into a shop code for this.  but what I was thinking was I could add the username of the person posting into the class tag for the divs that appear.  the in your forum CSS, you could add in whatever extra formatting you wanted, including background image and placement.  however inline styling would overide it.. so if they put in their own background image it would cancel out whatever styling you had setup

I'm pretty new to CSS. So I'm kind of lost right now.
Could you PM me what I'd need to add to my forum's style sheet to make it work like that?

no, previous posts wont have to be rewritten. it will be a change on the back end to make transitions work better. they dont seem to work like I expected on TR tags.

first tab open is working for me in firefox. I havent checked other browsers.

v1.1.2 just submitted to the library
put PT_username onto tr class for targetting with forum CSS based on username

Ah okay, that's good news.

And the first tab is open but the tab itself is not selected the the "selected tab color" that I have set until I actually click on it. It might be my coding, but who knows. novamterram.boards.net/thread/11/plotter-template

oh.. you are right.. I lost that somewhere along the way...

I got spaces in between tabs to work and submitted v1.1.1 to library



Im going to make a major change to this plugin at some point to do away with tables and go back to divs in order get transitions to work better

Hrm, so all previous written tabbed tables will have to be re-written? As of yet, the transitions work great and even Presto tags works great within them... however, the Presto can only be on the first tab and only one. That is the only issue I've noticed.

If you are only changing the UBBC tags to <div styles> and it won't have to be re-written, then I have no complaints. It just took forever to get my tables to look exactly how I wanted them (minus the spaces between tabs and the fact that the first tab isn't selected by default even though I have that set in the plugin) and I don't really want to have to re-write them all.

I think he means the internal table of the plugin.
getting rid of the table, and using DIVs to simulate the tabs.

that aside though, has the issue of getting rid of the tab spacing been fixed??
I hate how crappy it looks cause I can't get rid of it w/o getting rid of the padding around all tables. >_<

and to top it off, the edge-borders don't really sync all that well...
perhapse it's an issue with using tables instead of DIVs?? :/

EDIT: wow major ninja

Gave it a run as soon as I saw it in the library. 
Thank you so much!

Hey Wormopolis, I got really excited but then I used it and noticed a few faults.

1) The spaces don't remain after you click on a tab.
2) I think the space shouldn't be applied to the last tab, otherwise it messes with alignment, but I'm not sure how you could set that.

[Wormopolis]

I am not seeing the spaces disappear...

Well, it's definitely happening for me: novamterram.boards.net/thread/11/plotter-template

[Wormopolis]

I DID however catch the ending blank tab thing and fixed it.

Im going to try and do the rework this weekend to change over to divs, so that fix will be pushed with that.

I see whats happening.  the spaces are still there, its just coloring them the same background color as the other tabs.  I can fix that.

Wormopolis, if possible, could you sometime (no rush) implement the ability to re-collapse the table? When you first look at the table, it's complete collapsed, no tabs opened. Then, once you open a tab, you cannot get it to go back to the collapsed positioning. I was thinking either clicking the title could re-collapse it--though they might not have a title, which is why the other idea is to just clicking an already-selected tab would close it. It's not a big deal by any means but it'd help at least my site with organization. =)
