Quick Question...

gen3ric

return $this->gui->referer(LOGIN_THX_LOGGED_IN.", ".$_POST['username'], $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

I was wondering where, if possible, I would format the way that $_POST['username'] is displayed, ie changing the font attributes with basic html. Is it possible for me to insert font size='1' in that line of php?

Thank you for understanding us n00bs 🙂

Sure...

return $this->gui->referer(LOGIN_THX_LOGGED_IN.", <font size=\"1\">".$_POST['username']."</font>", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

Though I'd sugeest using CSS instead. But you get the drift....

Excellent! Thank you so much for your help! 😃

what you need to do (or so it looks to me seeing very little code here) is look for the 'referer' function in the gui class. There I'll bet you will find where the HTML content is wrote or returned.

Maybe I'm ignorant here, but it seems like that is a string or constant parameter to a function. Maybe not???

Okay bretticus, I checked out the gui.class and found the referer function:

	function referer($txt, $link) {

	$this->show("<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"3; URL=".$this->url($link)."\">");
	$this->show("<table align='center' width='400' cellpadding='5' bgcolor='white'>\n<tr>\n<td id='xnews_msgbox'>");
	$this->show("\n<p>\n".$txt."<p>\n");
	$this->show("<a href='".$this->url($link)."'>".REFERER_REDIRECTING."</a>");
	$this->show("</td>\n</td>\n</table>");

	return $this->html;
}

I went ahead and put my html within the td and it worked great! This has also allowed me to solve some formatting problems with multiple other functions. Thanks for pointing that out 🙂

Okay I'm stumped again lol.

	function show($tags, $br = false) {

	if($br)		$this->html .= $tags . "\n" . "<br>" . "</font>\n";	// with <br>
	else		$this->html .= $tags . "\n";			// no <br>
}

Where and can I insert HTML in the following function to format the $tags?

Thanks again!

the show function simply appends to your class variable $this->html before being returned in the calling function 'referer'. It looks like to me that 'show' was never meant to do formatting besides the $br (break) boolean that justs appends a '<BR>' to the end. I would do your formatting in 'referer' only. Did you add the '</font>' string to the $br = true condition? It looks "funky" to me.

{edit}

Oh, the show function does handle line breaks for you too '\n'. Still, format referer only.
