That Darn Actions pop up

So I decided to play with the actions popup and came up with an interesting solution to having to CLICK the mouse to get it to close

in the file templates/base/short_profile_info.html

AFTER THIS LINE

</bx_if:profile_status_cond>

ADD THIS

<script type="text/javascript">

$( "#short_profile_info" ).hover(

function(){

//alert('mouse enter');

},

function(){

$( "#short_profile_info" ).fadeOut('4000', function(){});

}

);

</script>

Who is this man? Always coming up with the good stuff!. :) Works a treat, thankyou very much, so much better now. :)

The fade out sort of works - when I cross from one column to another with my mouse. Once I move mouse away in the direction of the edge of the page, it stays and then, even when moving mouse across the columns, the fade out does not happen. Could this be corrected that when mouse moves away from the pop up block, no matter what direction,  it fades?

Ok, understood now the mouse has to be over the pop up for the fade out to initialize once the mouse moves away from the pop up. If the mouse is not over the pop up menu, then it is enough to move it over it then move away. Simple. :) Thanks.

Thank you Prisca, for bringing this topic back from the dead... I never would have got to it otherwise.

It's one of those enhancements you don't think about, but when you find out about them you don't understand how you lived without it.

In 7.1.X there is no </bx_if:profile_status_cond> in the file you mentioned, but if you paste the code at the end of the file it works like a charm.

Great tip Steve! Thank you.

One has to wonder why this isn't implemented by the All Highest? :) Steve has posted 592 days ago and one has to do it manually for oneself - yes, it's a great way to learn things but this only works for someone who has no life other than Boonex forums. :) And judging by your reply, this isn't built in the famed and fabled 7.1 either. I just wonder what the all Highest do all the time? Since I've put so much work into modifying the original Dolphin for the last two years that I've almost built brand new creature, with the help of the forums. Maybe I should sell my version back to Boonex for loads of $$$ to distribute it finally as an ultimate package? :) With the exception that it's practically impossible to upgrade, with all the changes. You win, you loose. Only All Highest wins all the time. :)
