How to make the signature in a post bottom-aligned for the style phpVB2 with this code:

Code: Select all

<tr> 
                <td width="186" valign="top" class="{postrow.ROW_CLASS}" nowrap> <span class="largetext"><a name="{postrow.U_POST_ID}"></a><b>{postrow.POSTER_NAME}</b></span><br> 
                  <span class="smalltext">{postrow.POSTER_RANK}<br> 
                  {postrow.RANK_IMAGE}{postrow.POSTER_AVATAR}<br> 
                  <br> 
                  {postrow.POSTER_JOINED}<br> 
                  {postrow.POSTER_POSTS}<br> 
                  {postrow.POSTER_FROM}</span></td> 
                <td valign="top" class="{postrow.ROW_CLASS}"> <span class="smalltext"><b>{postrow.POST_SUBJECT}</b></span> 
                  <p><span class="largetext">{postrow.MESSAGE}{postrow.SIGNATURE}</span><span class="smalltext">{postrow.EDITED_MESSAGE}</span></p> 
                </td> 
              </tr>

i've noticed there's a mod for the subSilver style, but the phpVB2 style has a totally different code and i didn't manage to get the signature bottom-aligned...

please help if you can!

Perhaps because you posted it in the wrong forum

perhaps i can get an answer i've waited so long now, and really want to know how to do that... i've tried somethings myself but can't solve it!

[GPHemsley]

Apparently you can't take a hint.... He/she was saying to post in the Styles Support Forum! So don't come back here saying, "Why doesn't anybody help me?" when the people in this forum aren't here to help.

[retroworld]

ehm, and can someone help me now?

[GPHemsley]

We're trying to help you by telling you that you posted this in the WRONG FORUM!!!!! Now go post in the right forum where there are people who will actually help you with your problem!!!!!!

It has been moved to the right forum

However, I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve here? What do you wish it bottom-aligned with respect to? because at present the signature is in the middle of a table cell with things above and below it.

[retroworld]

well, if you just tell me how to get some of the text in the table bottom aligned (everything below the actual message) i can fix the rest myself. i want to get just the signature bottom-aligned, and don't know how to do that

this this one:

Code: Select all

<tr> 
<td width="100%"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%">
<tr>
	<td width="186" align="left" valign="top" class="row3" nowrap="nowrap" rowspan="2"><span class="largetext"><a name="{postrow.U_POST_ID}"></a><b>{postrow.POSTER_NAME}</b></span><br> 
		<span class="smalltext">{postrow.POSTER_RANK}<br> 
		{postrow.RANK_IMAGE}{postrow.POSTER_AVATAR}<br> 
		<br> 
		{postrow.POSTER_JOINED}<br> 
		{postrow.POSTER_POSTS}<br> 
		{postrow.POSTER_FROM}</span></td>
	<td width="100%" align="left" valign="top" class="{postrow.ROW_CLASS}">
		<span class="smalltext"><b>{postrow.POST_SUBJECT}</b></span> 
		<p><span class="largetext">{postrow.MESSAGE}</span></p> 
	</td>
</tr>
<tr>
	<td align="left" valign="bottom"><span class="largetext">{postrow.SIGNATURE}</span><span class="smalltext">{postrow.EDITED_MESSAGE}</span></td>
</tr></table></td>
</tr>

this will look little bit different from default because it uses different row classes - but that's because of table structure. with this code you won't see border between user info and post, but userinfo has class "row3" so it should look differently. change "row3" to "{postrow.ROW_CLASS}" if you want default row class.

[retroworld]

it still didn't work.

my forum now looks like this: http://www.retroworld.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?p=30#30

the code is this one:

Code: Select all

 <td width="100%" align="left" valign="top" class="{postrow.ROW_CLASS}"> 
      <span class="smalltext"><b>{postrow.POST_SUBJECT}</b></span> 
      <p><span class="largetext">{postrow.MESSAGE}</span></p> 
   </td> 
</tr>
<tr>
   <td align="left" valign="bottom"><span class="largetext">{postrow.SIGNATURE}</span><span 

class="smalltext">{postrow.EDITED_MESSAGE}</span></td>

what do i need to change to get the signature in the same cell as the message?

[Arty]

you need to change bigger part of code than just that one.

left row (the one where username, posts numer, etc. is) should have rowspan="2" so it would take 2 rows. on the right should be 2 rows - first with post, second with signature. first aligned to top, second to bottom.

[retroworld]

when i did it your way CyberAlien i had those awfull borders... so i deleted everything in the message-cell and placed a table with two rows.. one with valign="top" and the message and edited by in it. and the other cell with valign="bottom" and the signature in it:


works great:

Code: Select all

    <tr> 
                <td width="186" valign="top" class="{postrow.ROW_CLASS}" nowrap> <span class="largetext"><a name="{postrow.U_POST_ID}"></a><b>{postrow.POSTER_NAME}</b></span><br>
                  <span class="smalltext">{postrow.POSTER_RANK}<br>
                  {postrow.RANK_IMAGE}{postrow.POSTER_AVATAR}<br></span></td>
                <td valign="top" class="{postrow.ROW_CLASS}"><table border="0" height="130">
  <tr>
    <td width="100%" valign="top"><span class="largetext">{postrow.MESSAGE}</span><span class="smalltext">{postrow.EDITED_MESSAGE}</span></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td width="100%" valign="bottom"><span class="smalltext"><b>{postrow.SIGNATURE}</b></span></td>
  </tr>
</table>

                </td>
              </tr>
