maybe Schturman wants to test your files and see if it's working for him.

THANK YOU very much to you and to qole!

I played with the

Code:

Add "text-align: right;" to "div.MessageOther" (right under the "float: right;")

and in the bubble too. And now it's solved my problem

Now I still don't understand why messages jumping to the top

But it's less disturbing...

Another question...
If I want change the my Nickname to something like "Me" (in hebrew language = "אני") , I need back to this post ?

I need play with this block ?

Code:

 * the Name field
 */
span.MessageNameField.Self {
  color:#4169E1;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

change that to something like:

Code:

 * the Name field
 */
span.MessageNameField.אני {
  color:#4169E1;
  word-wrap: break-word;
  vertical-align: middle;
}

?
Thanks

you may can hack-around in the css-file but the normal way would be editing the js-file.
i already described this anywhere in the thread. ^^

Well, as I said, the 400px hack fixed my problem. It still returns to the top of the conversation when I open the IM session, but otherwise, it looks good!

(~~EDIT: Except for the misalignment on the right for short messages...~~
EDIT2: Fixed misalignment problems!)

ADDED: Attachment with my html and css files in case anyone else wants them. (fixed alignment version)

Thankx again Qole for finding and fixing this bug!!!

For those who want to use the blue version I uploaded the fixed version here - Post 108

next step is to deactivate the borders (which imho are pretty ugly *G*) and use background-images for the bubbles to get a nice 3d-effect

Absolutely! I started playing with 3d background images a week ago. Its pretty easy with fixed bubble-size, but a bit more challnging with resizing bubbles (if possible at all with .css??? ).
To bad I don´t have the time to keep working on that at the moment :-(

this is an interesting one:
http://www.guistuff.com/css/css_imagetech1.html
so you can make a bubble-image and always cut out pieces you need for your background.
example: (not the best but the first i found *G*)
i took a nice looking bubble and divided it into 9 pieces.
4 corners, 4 edges and 1 middle-background.
now you have to know, where you are at the message/layout and choose a piece as current background.
with this technique you can make a bubble of any size without zooming in/out and getting grainy/pixelated.

EDIT: as i said... the example isn't that good because the edges aren't straight... so it would not look good if you repeatly stack them together. ^^
EDIT2: and don't ask me about the performance - i haven't got any clue. it may be loading forever on longer conversations xD

Yes, thanks. I've found this post and I tried play with .js file.
I found this line:

Code:

if (id == ("MessageSenderName" + type_name))
                name_tag = node_tags[i];

and I tried change to this:

Code:

if (id == ("MessageSenderName" + type_name))
                name_tag = "My name";

And I got the result without both names (not my and not from "other")

Why ?

Why ?

didn't test this one.
name_tag is declined as a string.
so i thought replacing the variable with a string containing your name should do it.
but you should only replace the node_tags[i] with "yourname" in the block where your items are fetched.

btw:
nothing fancy, just new background image in bubble-style.
as you can see i have some problems getting the timestamp in that bubble. don't know why it's not working - the html-blocks are set correctly

edit: the big font-size is only there because i've done a bigger font conversation layout for users who are having problems with their eyesight. (it's looking quite strange xD)
