Post subject: So glad to have found this site

Friends i have been using phpbb2 and finding others that still use it is awesome. I am trying to add some changes to my layout by replacing all buttons with css and all is working until i get to the viewtopic body. So far i have the new topic and post reply buttons replaced but the quote post, edit post etc etc buttons i am having issues with.

Here is what i have done so far. All edits i am making are on the tpl files so it is only theme based so in the viewtopic body i have changed the following:

Code:
<td><a href="{U_POST_NEW_TOPIC}"><img src="{POST_IMG}" border="0" alt="{L_POST_NEW_TOPIC}" title="{L_POST_NEW_TOPIC}"  /></a></td>


With this:

Code:
<td><button><span><span><a href="{U_POST_NEW_TOPIC}">New Topic</a></span></span></button>
</td>


and then added my css to the style using the following:

Code:
button{
  margin      : 0;
  padding     : 0;
  border      : 0;
  background  : transparent;
  font-family : inherit;
  font-size   : 1em;
  cursor      : pointer;
}

button::-moz-focus-inner{
  padding : 0;
  border  : 0;
}

button span{
  display : block;
}

button > span{
  border        : 1px solid rgb(128,128,128);
  border-radius : 4px;
}

button > span{
background: #ffffff; /* Old browsers */
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top,  #ffffff 0%, #f3f3f3 50%, #ededed 51%, #ffffff 100%); /* FF3.6+ */
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#ffffff), color-stop(50%,#f3f3f3), color-stop(51%,#ededed), color-stop(100%,#ffffff)); /* Chrome,Safari4+ */
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top,  #ffffff 0%,#f3f3f3 50%,#ededed 51%,#ffffff 100%); /* Chrome10+,Safari5.1+ */
background: -o-linear-gradient(top,  #ffffff 0%,#f3f3f3 50%,#ededed 51%,#ffffff 100%); /* Opera 11.10+ */
background: -ms-linear-gradient(top,  #ffffff 0%,#f3f3f3 50%,#ededed 51%,#ffffff 100%); /* IE10+ */
background: linear-gradient(to bottom,  #ffffff 0%,#f3f3f3 50%,#ededed 51%,#ffffff 100%); /* W3C */
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#ffffff', endColorstr='#ffffff',GradientType=0 ); /* IE6-9 */
}

button > span{
  padding     : 0 8px;
  line-height : 24px;
}

button > span{
  color       : white;
}

button > span{
  width       : 70px;
  height      : 24px;
  line-height : 24px;
}


Please, any help with replacing the following:

Code:
{QUOTE_PM_IMG}

{QUOTE_PM_IMG} does not seem to exist in a fresh install, is it from a MOD? What trouble do you have with it?

Also, I'm not a semantics expert but it seems weird to have two spans in your button icon_confused.gif

You will find the {postrow.QUOTE_IMG} in the viewtopic_body.tpl My apologies for that.

The 2 <spans> are in use in css3 as single and double selectors so i can have a double outline around the css3 button.

I am trying to get all css3 buttons to follow the same css and use text instead of images so i can change the color, look and feel with simple css edits instead of new images.

{postrow.QUOTE_IMG} is defined in viewtopic.php on line 990. You could replace the img tag with your anchor text and wrap the rest of the HTML around it in the TPL file as you did above.

Will do that Salvatos, sounds like the cure for sure. I was doing it all in the tpl and the buttons were showing whether they were used or not LOL. For example when i added the edits to the AIM it showed the button even though it was not supposed to LOL. Thank you so much for your time taken to share. I looked high and low for a phpbb2 site like this. I hope i can share with others as well and keep phpbb2 alive.

Might be a case of browser cache, did you try to force refresh?

When i edited the php file directly it worked perfectly, when i edited the tpl by itself is when i screwed myself. Your way worked flawlessly friend and i Thank you so so much. Is very nice to find folks who will take the time to help others and i am truly thankful for your help.
