Where to put a java-script code for mouse-over fading?

DJ-Loki

Hello,

I have downloaded a fade.js file to let the links on my page fade from colour. In the script they say:

Now, once you have customized your fading colors,
you need to include your customized .js file on
every page that you want to use it in. You can
include javascript files using this syntax (in
the head of a document):

<script src="fade.js" language="Javascript"></script>

But where do i put this code and in wich file?

Regards,

Code:

## Author Note: 
## Thanks go out to the unknown Author of the fade.js 
##
## If you want to change colors or fading parameters open the file fade.js and change the settings

To use this for your nuke theme, put the fade.js in your theme folder, add the code to your theme.php just above the body tag

Code:

function themeheader() {
    global $user, $banners, $sitename, $slogan, $cookie, $prefix, $file, $name, $dbi;
    cookiedecode($user);
    $username = $cookie[1];
    if ($username == "") {
        $username = "Anonymous";
    }
    echo "
<script language=\"JavaScript\" src=\"themes/YOUR THEME/fade.js\"></script>

But doesn't this only work for the forum?

Look back up at my post.

Code:

function themeheader() {
    global $user, $banners, $sitename, $slogan, $cookie, $prefix, $file, $name, $dbi;
    cookiedecode($user);
    $username = $cookie[1];
    if ($username == "") {
        $username = "Anonymous";
    }
    echo "
<script language=\"JavaScript\" src=\"themes/YOUR THEME/fade.js\"></script>
    <body background=\"themes/fiapple/images/lines.gif\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\" text=\"#000000\" leftmargin=\"0\" topmargin=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\">";

This is hoe it should look in your theme.php

Ok! Thank you so much!

If you are using Nuke/phpBB matching theme. Then you will have to use the same sort of method Martin gave you but also add it to the themes/Yourtheme/header.html file. If you want the link fade effect to cover all of your site.

like this

Code:

<script src="themes/Yourtheme/fade.js" language="Javascript"></script>

It just doesn't work! This is what it lookes like for me:

Code:

function themeheader() {
    global $user, $banners, $sitename, $slogan, $cookie, $prefix, $name, $dbi;
    cookiedecode($user);
    $username = $cookie[1];
    if ($username == "") {
        $username = "Anonymous";
    }
    echo  
	"<body bgcolor=\"#000000\" text=\"#FFFFCC\" leftmargin=\"10\" topmargin=\"10\" marginwidth=\"10\" marginheight=\"10\">";
    if ($banners == 1) {
	include("banners.php");}

Now, where should the code be? Sorry for being so hard learning.

Look back at my last post.

Like Mikem said some themes work if you put the html version at the very top of the haeder.html file. BUT NOT WITH FIAPPLE THEME-PACK

Just copy and paste the last post I made down to the end of the </script>

And be sure to put a copy of fade.js in your theme folder.

Be sure you don't have an extra " before <body
There should be no "<body
The " goes after echo like echo[space]"
echo "
