Hmm.
Well, using Opera, the text isn't colored.
Using IE and Mozilla, it's stuck at " Loading..."

Go to the actual url: yoursite.com/forums/vbshout.php, see if it shows a db error.

Also i don't ensure the JS works with browsers like Opera, i keep to the JS standards, however i just tested in Opera and Netscape (newest versions) and it completely works, apart from the colours in the drop down menu don't show like you said in "Opera", but probably a problem on there side.

Nope, mysite.com/forum/vbshout.php works fine in both IE and Mozilla.
However, placed on the forum, it's stuck at "loading..." except in Opera.

Sure you've got javascript enabled in both those browsers, or is there a javascript error in either?

Yes, javascript is enabled.
IE shows an error loading the forum index (which has the shoutbox), but not when loading any forums.

Line: 158
Char: 2
Error: 'this.controlobj' is null or not an object
Code:0
URL: http://www.mysite.com/forum/

Not sure if it's related to vbshout of course.

Hrm, thats the vbulletin_menu.js file, try pressing ctrl+F5 for a hard refresh, if that doesn't do the trick no worries, i'm releasingv1.5 in a moment which has a new visual display element for emoticons.

No trick triggered I'll wait for the new version, thanks.

Does the new pending version still load smilies? I'd much prefer a simple popup box that doesn't load 'em until you click it.

As far as what to remove to the question asked above, you also have to remove the script code, or you'll bork the shoutbox. Also, if you just remove the link, the smilies will still load (watch the status bar at the bottom of your browser). But this is all most likely pointless with the new version.

New version released, where you can control the number of smilies shown, also a new better visual display of them

I still can't view it with IE and Mozilla, and I get the same error with IE.
Also, it shows as version 1.4 in Installed Products. (i followed the upgrade instructions)

Did you download the new Zip file?

- Zero Tolerance

[Shy]

Of course. And "Version: 1.5" is stated in the txts.

[Zero Tolerance]

Hmm, the XML file contains 1.5 and all the updated templates, try removing the product then re-adding, also ensure you select the correct XML file from the new ZIP file.

Damn, you're right. The archiver program decided to be spontaneous with the extraction.

[Shy]

Yep, this version is fine for me with IE and Mozilla.
Sorry for the confusion. Thanks.
