Need a little guidance.

Hello everyone,

            I am trying to move the login box into the header of our site. The only prblem I am having is finding out what files to edit. I have tried the general, login_section.css. Does anyone know how to change this? Here is an example of what I am trying to do.

I need the login background color to be transparent. I also need to change the login to fit into a max 70px height. We still need the remember me and join links as well. I have looked and searched everywhere. I am not sure what css files will change this. Oh, I found a good example of what I am looking for. If you go to tagged.com and look at their header, this is what I need to achieve. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi FRS,

I have done it here:

http://www.truckbuddies.com

You need to edit templates/tmpl_uni/scripts/functions.php

Find:

<div class="topMemberBlock">
<div class="no_hello_actions">
<a href="<?= $site['url'] ?>join.php"><?= _t( '_Join Now Top' ) ?></a>
<a href="<?= $site['url'] ?>member.php" onclick="showItemEditForm('login_div'); $( '#login_div' ).show().load( '<?= $site['url'] ?>member.php?action=show_login_form&relocate=' + encodeURIComponent( window.location )  );return false;"><?= _t( '_Member Login' ) ?></a>
</div>
</div>

and Replace with something like:

<div class="topMemberBlock">
<div style="position:relative;top:0px"><form action="<?= $site['url'] ?>member.php" method="post">
<table style="border-collapse: collapse" width="410">
<tr>
<td width="170" valign="top">Username:<br/><input name="relocate" value="/member.php" type="hidden"/>
<input name="ID" type="text" size="20"/><br/>
<input name="rememberMe" type="checkbox" value="ON"/> Remember Me</td>
<td width="170" valign="top">Password:<br/><input name="Password" type="password" size="20"/><br/><a href="<?= $site['url'] ?>forgot.php">Forgot Password?</a></td>
<td width="70" valign="top"><br/><input value="Log in" type="submit"><br/>
<a href="<?= $site['url'] ?>join.php">Join Now</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form></div>
</div>

I just looked at your site and it didn't work - the format is messed up, at least in Firefox.   I've done it on caltrade.com/members using mrpowless tutorials and it works well.  Check his blog - it is there I believe.

Strange... I checked on FireFox, IE, OPERA with both XP and Vista and it works fine for me...

Any chance you could send me a screen shot Caltrade then I can see what you mean?

Thanks... Dave

It even works fine for me on my iPhone.

If anyone else notices any problems with this on Truckbuddies.Com will you let me know?

There is no reason why this should not work on any browser.

Dave...

I just looked again and it looked fine.  I don't know why it didn't work before if you didn't change anything - maybe my browser just didn't load it properly for some reason - sorry about the drill.

Thanks Rob... It must have been a glitch in the Matrix
