MAX and Current Auction... anybody get this to work

**billz** · 05-03-2004, 01:02 PM

my client needs this mod that shows current auctions on his site but im have problems figuring out how to make this work in max version. mod is very easy to install but when u click on auction link it works but changes look of site ( to osC layout i believe ) ... anybody know what changes i would need to make so that the auction page shows my template version??? any help at all would be appreciated... i fear i may have to drop max version and have to start with plain version and add a bunch of mods myself. could not get current auction working right in max with bts1, bts 1.2a or with simple template mod. understand the prob is in the current_auctions.php but lost on how or what to do.

First of all this file has mostly inline style sheets (colors ect are hard coded/set in the file it self) ands is not using the common stylesheet file. You could change the color setting to match or use the CSS and modify the file.

As to move it to BTS - it would not be too hard - move all the HTML to a .tpl.php file then put the template place holder etc... Just as you would have to do for most contributions for BTS.

It should work fine - even without moving it to the BTS format. Just change the inline style colors to match your system.

Code:

// Table Border Color 
$table_border_color = "#FFFFFF"; 

// Table Header Row Color 
$table_header_color = "#CCCCFF"; 


// Table Alt Color Row 1 
$table_row1_color = "#FFFFFF"; 

// Table Alt Color Row 2 
$table_row2_color = "#EFEFEF";

Good Luck
