For us guys that are just getting into detailing and the products involved, I have an idea that Ive seen on other forums that works great. Every time someone uses an acronym it gets highlited or is a different color and when you drag your curser over top of it a small window pops up and gives a definition in the least amount of words possible. Its up to each individual user as to it being on or not and is turned off and on through the user cp tab. I know there is an acronym list but I find it hard to search through the list, decode it and resume reading before I have to start all over again because Ive lost the flow of what Im reading.

Im unsure of the programing nightmare this would cause to implement but it would make my time here more productive.

I'll forward your request to the Mike (my programer) Duratys. Not a bad suggestion

I'll let him take a stab at it, I'm sure it's just a matter of uploading a crack of some sort but an idea worth looking into.

Thanx Nica

That's a wicked idea!!

[Cooter]

Great idea. That would really help alot of ppl out. I talk that lingo to some friends on AIM and they cuss me (Billy) lol.

I added a similar feature. You can view how to use it here: Detailing Bliss Forum - vB Code List

It allows you to add your own wordWith your own popup. .

Thanx programer

This will save me alot of time and frustration

Well Mike (Programmer) was kind enough to work something out as I thought this suggestion was a really good one, thanks Duratys.

So just make sure you know how to use it and if you have any questions ask Mike because I'm still trying to get the hang of it, perhaps for some of you this will be like second nature but for some not so computer gurus this may be new and may need some practice and may require help. I'll help as much as I can but I too am trying to get the hang of this feature

Again thanks you Mike

Ok I spoke to soon.......added confusion ahead.


Do I have this screen in "user cp" to create the Acronyms I want?

We gotta make this as "Fisher Price" as possible.....

[Nica]

No it's not on User CP you have to enter the code your self like the example that Mike posted.

If you go to the advanced screen there is a new button that temporarely has the "Q" on it, I'll get a better looking button later but for now you can use that button now you enter the word on the schreen that pops up and then enter the definition to pop up...mmm..me thinks I'm going to have to set up a "How to use the pop up definition" post with screen shots ...okay I'll start working on it.
