That looks really cool 8-)

Sektor · **Posted:** Fri Nov 18, 2011 5:59 pm

Yes, I like it, T.M. did most of it. [syntax=mis] is a bit long. I'd prefer [mis] or even [code] with auto detection of language. I also want show/hide line numbers button.

I know the contracted size is too small and expand should only be displayed if the script is large but I haven't worked out how to fix that just yet.

BenMillard · **Posted:** Fri Nov 18, 2011 6:07 pm

Numbers with a leading zero are given a different colour. It probably thinks they are octal numbers, per convention. Should be able to set octal numbers to have the same colour as other numbers.

I sometimes give floats a leading zero to help alignment, so it won't just be integers that are affected. In particularly dense lists of coordinates, I've started to use a leading space instead of a leading zero.

Sektor · **Posted:** Fri Nov 18, 2011 6:20 pm

Added this to mis.php:

That fixed the numbers with leading zeroes.

Hide is pointless. "Using GTA2 Script Syntax Highlighting" isn't really needed or could just be reduced to "MIS" in the header. The word "Syntax:" needs to be removed from the header and the footer isn't needed either. The left margin could be reduced.

The .mis highlighter has one too many </div> tags at the end. That causes the message content container to be closed prematurely, so any subsequent text in that message is made tiny.

Not quite sure when it happens but here's an example. (I've seen it happen to TM as well...)

This text is small. (At least, it is in the example!)

Other syntax samples are fine, at least in the subsilver theme. Please don't call it syntax because I always, always typo it first time!

(EDIT) Oh, zomg, there's a <script> doing a document.write to add an extra </div> - that seems rather funky!

Sektor · **Posted:** Sun Nov 20, 2011 1:25 am

Prosilver theme doesn't even have the expand/contract buttons and I update it much less often than Subsilver2. I've seen the small text bug on Prosilver. With Subsilver2, it looks ok in FF8 and IE8 but the code still needs fixing.

Pyro · **Posted:** Sun Nov 20, 2011 1:37 am

Yup, I'm using Prosilver and get the small text bug. It also puts the username below the signature. If you're seeing it too then I don't need to send you screenshot unless you want me to.

lol yeah, i typed [source] instead :-)

Sektor · **Posted:** Mon Nov 21, 2011 5:23 pm

[mis] [cpp] [c] [vb] [php] and over 200 other language tags work. You can still use [syntax] if you are a masochist.

I added the Expand/Contract button to Prosilver theme. If you don't see it then try pushing ctrl+f5 to refresh browser cache.

I thought i told you [mis] tag was bugged, or did you fix that?

Sektor · **Posted:** Mon Nov 21, 2011 7:38 pm

It's fixed now. I added it using the recommended way instead of thinking I could do it without RTFM.

Pyro · **Posted:** Mon Nov 21, 2011 9:53 pm

Looks good now on Prosilver! 8-)

Im not sure the gray for enums is so good, how about these colors? (changed functions to brighter red too)

I also noticed the enum list i made was bugged: some of them had space in the end! fixing it as soon as Sektor comes online.

I ALSO noticed that the syntax highlighter expand button doesnt come visible until the WHOLE page has been fully loaded! super annoying.

Pyro · **Posted:** Tue Nov 22, 2011 11:59 pm

Those colours are too bright, especially the bright orange which is even harder to read than the grey.

The dark-ish red on syntax highlighter is good as well as other dark-ish colours (blue, green), but I agree the grey could be a little darker. Maybe use purple in there somewhere?

T.M. · **Posted:** Wed Nov 23, 2011 12:41 am

I thought it would be too bright indeed... its just hard to please everyone on a white background based syntax colors.

I cant use purple or everything is so damn blueish there. i chose yellowish because that wasnt used yet.

Black is so much easier background for syntax colors

BenMillard · **Posted:** Wed Nov 23, 2011 9:12 am

Might I suggest the Mozilla style syntax colours, as applied for GTA2? Only 200 languages to go, after that!

Or just pick the "friendly colours" mode from Mis Pad. Everyone can cope with that.

Red in a code view only makes sense when that bit is an error.

Giving every slightly different thing a completely different, bright colour prevents anything from standing out. It's just noise. That defeats the whole purpose of having colours.

What the hell? By looking at your syntax highlighter, it has everything you whined about here: red as a color and almost same amount of colors as ours have.

That's ironic, TM. :roll:

Sektor, CSS can fix long unwrappable lines of code in CSS layouts, such as ProSilver.

Code:

.content .syntax { /* ul_syntax_highlighter.css */
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    border: 1px solid #D0D0D0;
    color: #444444;
    display: block;
    font-family: Courier,'Courier New',sans-serif;
    font-size: 1em;
    line-height: 1.2em;
    margin: 0;
    white-space: pre-wrap; /* new, supports old Firefox and anything better */
    word-wrap: break-word; /* new, supports IE6 and anything better */
}

I use this for HTML code samples, since URLs are sometimes unwrappable.

Sadly the SubSilver2 theme uses layout table. With a lot of changes you can make the table cells resize more predictably, somewhat like a CSS layout.

Code:

.tablebg { /* stylesheet.css, line 336 */
    background-color: #A9B8C2;
}
.tablebg table { /* new */
    table-layout: fixed; /* topic entry and that entry's content will size a bit more normally */
}
.tablebg td { /* new */
    width: auto; /* nuclear option!! */
}
.tablebg .row1 td + td,
.tablebg .row2 td + td { /* new, supports IE7 and anything better */
    width: 80%; /* 2nd column has <td width="100%"> which squashes 1st column in fixed layout mode */
}
.content .syntax { /* ul_syntax_highlighter.css */
    background-color: #FFFFFF;
    border: 1px solid #D0D0D0;
    color: #444444;
    display: block;
    font-family: Courier,'Courier New',sans-serif;
    font-size: 1em;
    line-height: 1.2em;
    margin: 0;
    white-space: pre-wrap; /* new, supports old Firefox and anything better */
    word-wrap: break-word; /* new, supports IE6 and anything better */
}

I mocked this up in Firebug so it might not actually work! This probably breaks compatibility with IE6. Editing the HTML would mean changing PHP which probably makes updating the forum impossible.

If you try this out, I might get a chance to debug it some more next week. Now I have to go wash those dirty layout tables off my hands.
