Code: ToolTips How to truncate text / cut off text at certain length »
I use the database to present some pages because it’s just easier to deal with. At one time I was using a Mod for Invision Power Boards to add simple pages to present info on various IRC information. I really wasn’t happy with how it worked and rather than edit something that could break again in future forum updates I decided to make my own system.
Each page has a link that only the admin can see that allows you to pop up a window in which you can edit the page’s html coding. I only use this method for a few information pages that do not require extra php coding.
Features:
- Quick launch link directly from the page you want to edit.
- Auto insertion of links to menu on creation
- Alert popup to ensure you really meant to update the page.
- Ability to delete the page
- On submit the window refreshes the information and the page refreshes as well.
Here is what the process looks like
