did u mean this
[code:1]function submitForm() {
submitme=1;
formname=document.postform.fb_authorname.value;
if ((formname.lengthngth{
alert("You forgot to enter your email"«»);
submitme=0;
}
formsubject=document.postform.subject.value;
if ((formsubject.length0) {
// var message = document.postform.message.value;
// message = message.replace(/"«»);
// document.postform.message.value = message;
//change the following line to true to submit form
return true;
}else{
return false;
}
}[/code:1]

i deleted it and the same message :(

Manhag,

That's not the right section. Look for the alert "You forgot to include a message." and comment out the whole if clause that contains it. Make sure you're looking at /components/com_fireboard/sources/fb_bb.js.php . If you find nothing there, then the alert could be coming from: /administrator/components/com_fireboard/bb_adm.js . Sorry about this confusion--I made this change a long time ago and forgot what the original code was like and where it was.

gomjabbar,

i searched in all files using notepad++

i searched for "You forgot to enter a message."
result = 0

u may have an old version

i downloaded the file package from the website

i think it may be different
because it is not a pop up message
after i clicked submit it directs me to a ny page with that message "


see attached

Manhag,

Yes, you must have a newer version. Don't worry, we can sort this out. Try to look for instances where the code calls _POST_FORGOT_MESSAGE and tell me what they are. There should be one in /templates/default/post.php. It should look something like:

if (empty($fb_authorname)) {
echo _POST_FORGOT_NAME;
}
else if (empty($subject)) {
echo _POST_FORGOT_SUBJECT;
}
else if (empty($message)) {
echo _POST_FORGOT_MESSAGE;
}
else...

Try removing this call and tell me if your post gets registered. But if that's the call you get, then the problem is back in the smile.class.php--$message shouldn't be empty at this point.

gomjabbar,

no error messages now

but the post is empty......................i am waiting

thanks alot for your efforts

Manhag,

As I anticipated, the problem is elsewhere. Uncomment the code in post.php and go back to /com_fireboard/templates/default/smile.class.php

find the lines (brackets stripped):
td valign = "top" div id = "fb-rightcolpost"

textarea class = "..."

Make sure that you changed *only* the class tag so that the code reads:

textarea class = "mceEditor" name = "message" id = "postform" ...

Gom

i did that

no change

the style of tinymce appears

but when submit

empty post


can u upload your template " changed files only"
or it is private ??

i will compare files using eXamDiff application

Manhag,

Dreadfully sorry, been busy irl. Now, if we both have patience, we'll see this one through. I'm sending you the relevant files from my code. Place them in one directory, create another directory next to it and put your files in that one. Then, use winmerge to compare each of the four files. My code has many modifications--look only at the ones that contain "message," "$message," "POST" or "REQUEST," and in post.php, the "INSERT" into the database. We need to figure out where the chain is broken. Begin by comparing my fb_bb.js.php to yours. It seems like the problem is somewhere there. Good luck and keep me posted!

Cheers,
Gom

P. S. If we manage to get this working, I have a bonus for you . It's a cleaned up version of the iBrowser plugin that lets users upload pics from their hard drive into their post. Check it out on Gossper--the icon is right next to the smileys.
