DHGamers you are awesome, brilliant, and my hero. I'm just glad you get your homework done before you solve the problems of the world!! If only my son was like that! Thanks so much for the fix!! It worked like a dream!

what Joomla CSS file?

I'm an idiot, i know but would it be the Fireboard Css or the main Joomla! CSS?


Thanks



EDIT: And would it be anywhere? I can't even find a joomla CSS file so could you include a map in your solution? Thanks

with joomla css, i mean the css file of the template you use for your whole site.

That's what I like a nice clean simple fix for a problem I had with my Rocket theme template

Should make clear to dumbmos like me who never read anything properly that the template to patch is the one at .../components/com_fireboard/template/default/joomla.css NOT the Joomla site template css or the one you can reach via Fireboard so it's joomlaXplorer or ftp time folks but quick and painless.

Thanks. Now lets hope this gets included in the next release

just paste this:

Code:

/* -------------------------------- fireboard stuff ------------------------------ */ table#fb_postmessage .fb_txtarea { width: 95%; overflow: auto; height: 300px; border: 1px solid #ccc; } .fb_txtarea { height: 300px; width: 95%; }

in your joomla css file

Ok. thanks. This is the solution.

So in other words, there is a bug that they haven't fixed, and you have to create your own CSS to match that of the site.

EDIT: sorry, useless post

Where exactly do I add that section? I tried just tacking it to the end, but that did not work.

My joomla.css in the com_fireboard looks like this.

Code:

/* HEADER ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ #fb_header_msg { } /* offline message */ .fb_header { /* header table */ height:30px; } td.fb_header_td_1 { /* header table hideshow switch img td */ text-align:left; width:1%; padding-left:4px; } .fb_header .fb_header_td_2 { /* header table board title td */ text-align:left; padding-left:5px; font-weight:bold; font-family: Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:13px; } td.fb_header_td_3 { /* header table menu td */ text-align:center; } td.fb_header_td_4 { /* header table searchbox td */ text-align:right; } img.hideshow { /* header table hideshow switch img */ float: right; margin: 0; padding: 0; cursor: pointer; } /* TOPMENU ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ #fb_topmenu { /* topmenu div */ } #fb_topmenu a{ /* topmenu link items */ padding: 0 8px; display: block; text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold; float: left; font-family: Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:11px; } #fb_topmenu a:hover{ } /* SEARCHBOX ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ #fb_searchbox { /* searchbox div */ } #fb_searchbox form { /* searchbox form */ margin:0; padding:0; } /* PROFILE BOX ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ .fb_profilebox { /* header profilebox table */ } table.fb_profilebox .fb_profilebox_left { padding: 5px; width: 1%; } table.fb_profilebox .fb_profilebox_mid { padding: 5px; width: 49%; text-align: left; } table.fb_profilebox .fb_profilebox_right { padding: 5px; } table.fb_profilebox .fb_profilebox_modul .moduletable { /* header profilebox fb_1 module position */ margin: 0; padding: 0; } /* /* LISTING CATEGORY ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ .fb_blocktable { width: 100%; margin: 5px 0; } .fb_blocktable thead tr th { padding:3px 2px 2px 5px; } tr.fb_sth { } th.fb_sectiontableheader { font-size-adjust:none; font-stretch:normal; font-style:normal; font-variant:normal; font-weight:bold; height:20px; line-height:normal; padding:0px 3px; vertical-align:middle; } #fb_title { float: left; text-align: left; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; padding: 2px; } .fb_title, a.fb_title:link, a.fb_title:visited { font-family:Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12px; font-weight:bold; display:block; text-decoration:none; } a.fb_title:hover { } /* GENERAL TD's and TH's ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ th.th-1 { width: 1%; } th.th-2 { } th.th-3 { width: 5%; } th.th-4 { width: 5%; } th.th-5 { width: 25%; } td.td-1 { text-align: center; } td.td-2 { text-align: left; } td.td-3 { text-align: center; } td.td-4 { text-align: center; } td.td-5 { text-align: left; } tbody tr.fb_sectiontableentry1 td, tbody tr.fb_sectiontableentry2 td { padding:3px; } tbody tr.fb_sectiontableentry1 td.td-1, tbody tr.fb_sectiontableentry2 td.td-1 { } /* -------------------------------- fireboard stuff ------------------------------ */ table#fb_postmessage .fb_txtarea { width: 95%; overflow: auto; height: 300px; border: 1px solid #ccc; } .fb_txtarea { height: 300px; width: 95%; }

Is this right?

Read it again. It says JOOMLA css NOT FireBoard css (forum.css). Look for it in your JOOMLA install not in the FireBoard component folder. I'm deleting your other thread.
