    how the hell did they do that?

    i was surfing some other vb boards as i came across this oneCharmed-Boards.com
    And they have a verry cool effect when u move your mouse over the forum (ah hell yust have a look).

    i did however discover this piece of code
    Code:
    onMouseover="changeto('#E4E1D2')" onMouseout="changeback('#D2CDB7')"
    i do not know if it is the complete code or if it is the code and something else

    And now i want that on my board to but how and where do i put this piece of code??

    I'm sure the first thing they did was going here and did what it says.

    Then they added the code to their forumhome_forumbit_xxx templates.

        its a table mouseover tag (you put a mouseover tag in the TD)
        You can find it html resources over the net.
        Try starting at devshed.com

        You have to edit your forum display template.

              you could try this:

              Edit template "forumhome_forumbit_levelX_post"

              and find:

              Code:
              <td bgcolor="{ firstaltcolor}" align="left">
              and replace that with:

              Code:
              <td bgcolor="{ firstaltcolor}" align="left" onMouseOver="this.style.backgroundColor='{ secondaltcolor}'; this.style.cursor='hand';" onMouseOut="this.style.backgroundColor='{ firstaltcolor}';" onclick="window.location.href='forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$forum[forumid]'">
              Take out the spaces in "{ firstaltcolor}" and "{ secondaltcolor}" and that should do it. It also makes the cell a link to the forum too

                          yup, it'll be compatible with all vB versions, as it's just a little HTML addon to a TD tag

                            That's cool

                            That's a cool effect, thanks. It took me a while to make it work because I was mistakenly trying to edit forumdisplay_forumbit_levelX_post instead of forumhome_forumbit_levelX_post. Maybe that's the problem that Mr X is having? Also don't forget to take out those extra spaces in "{ firstaltcolor}" and "{ secondaltcolor}" .

                            So how do I make this effect work on the category page? You know, you hit the category link and it lists the forums in that category. I'd like the mouseover there too. I'm guessing it's the same code but what template do I modify?

                            Thanks!

                              I believe the template would be "forumdisplay_forumbit_level1_post"
