Everytime I click on the [Get More] link and open the smilies window, the next thing I have to do is make the window wider so I see all the icons + text. Wouldn't it be better to set the window to open wider so there is no horizontal scroller?

Bugs me too. We'll get BC on it (resident window maker bigger monkey).
Matt or I will get on to this once I figure out how to modify the newreply template.... :D
Correction : I had to update the vbcode_smilies_getmore template :rolleyes: ;)
I've now adjusted the window width to 360 pixels, which is just about right on my box (1024x768). I presume it should be alright for all resolutions, so if anyone needs it even wider, I'll think about adjusting it, but I think 360 should be right.

Remember that's 360 plus or minus about 240 on Netscape, depending on mood and time of day. I hope you incorporated a nice safety buffer :D.
This is rather off the original topic, but it's about window sizes. Whenever I open windows with JavaScript, Netscape likes to make them maximised, I use something like this:
open ('Whatever", "Whatever", "width=360,height=400");
Is there something wrong with that code or does Netscape just not like window sizes being specified?
By the way, the 360 is perfect on my box too (which happens to be 1024x768 as well, so no surprises there).

Great! It looks much better now, thank you.

Not to mention the buffer overflows, RAM hogging + crappy HTML/CSS specifications implementation..... :rolleyes:

I read somewhere the reason why it stuffs up frame sizes. It converts the size to a percentage of the screen, rounds off, and then uses the rounded off percentage to work out the exact pixel width.
Something that slipped through the code inspections I'm thinking.
