[fredatemespleen]

does anybody know how to fix this or what is wrong?

Post the coding that you've tried. Did you replace the "XXXXXXX" or "YOURFRIENDID" where it says to?

[fredatemespleen]

yea, i put the friend id in.
its like, all comment boxes.
i went on all my friends pages and they didnt work either.

CODE

<div class="comment box">
<center><style type="text/css">
textarea.area{
background-color:df6699;
width:100px;
height:50px;
font-family:georgia;
color:000000;
line-height:15px;
font-size:11px;
border:1px solid;
border-color:df6699;
letter-spacing:1px;
}

input.button {
color:000000;
text-transform: lowercase;
font-size:15px;
width:100px;
height:20px;
text-align: center;
background-color:df6699;
border:1px solid;
border-color:df6699;
line-height:9px;
font-weight: normal;
font-family: georgia;}
</style>

<form method="post" action="http://comments.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.ConfirmComment">
<input name="friendID" value="34545520" type="hidden">
<textarea name="f_comments" class="area">Gabba Gabba...</textarea><br />
<input type="submit"class="button" value="Hey!"></form></center></div>

CODE

<input name="friendID" value="34545520" type="hidden">

put your friend ID where it says "friend ID", not in value?
that might work.

[fredatemespleen]

its worked for months.
i've had that same comment box for forever, just changing the colors and fonts and stuff.
its just today, its not working.

there's actually nothing wrong with your code. i've also been having this problem too, and i can only guess that it's a myspace glitch. hopefully it will clear up in a few days.

it seems other people are dealing with this.

[miyashu]

bumping this in case anyone is having problems with custom comment boxes.

Here is the updated code (replace XXXXXX with your friendID):

CODE

<table class="commentBox">
<form method="post" action="http://comments.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile_commentForm&friendID=XXXXXX">
<tr><td><input type="hidden" name="__EVENTTARGET" id="__EVENTTARGET" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="__EVENTARGUMENT" id="__EVENTARGUMENT" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE" value="" />

<textarea class="inputBox" name="ctl00$cpMain$UserWriteCommentsControl$commentTextBox" >Here's where you type in your commment!</textarea>
</td></tr><tr class="buttons"><td><input type="submit" name="ctl00$cpMain$UserWriteCommentsControl$postcommentImageButton" class="postButton" value="Comment me!"></input></td></tr></form></table>

And here is where you customize it. Add this (and the code above) to About Me:

CODE

<style>
.commentBox {background-color:transparent; border:0px; width:200px;}
.commentBox td {background-color:transparent;}
.commentBox .titleTD {display:none;}
.commentBox .postButton {font-family:Tahoma; color:black; font-size:12px;}
.commentBox .buttons input {background-color:cccccc; border:1px Solid; border-color:999999; width:100%;}
.commentBox .inputBox {
display:block;
width:100%;
background-color:000000;
height:120px;
border:0px;
text-align:left;
font-family:Tahoma;
color:cccccc;
font-size:13px;
scrollbar-arrow-color:CA4782;
scrollbar-track-color:323232;
scrollbar-shadow-color:222222;
scrollbar-face-color:323232;
scrollbar-highlight-color:ffffff;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color:cccccc;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:000000;}
</style>

.commentBox .inputBox - where you type in your comment
.commentBox .postButton & .commentBox .buttons input - the actual button that you click to comment someone

Someone already submitted a different code to Myspace Scripts, but this is the one I find easier to work with.

[vintage-toile]

i am using this code:

CODE

<form method="post" action="http://comments.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.ConfirmComment"><input type="hidden" name="friendID" value="XXXXXX"><select name="f_comments" id="f_comments">
<option>Replace with your comment text!</option>
<option>Replace with your comment text!</option>
<option>Replace with your comment text!</option>
</select><br>
<input type="submit" value="Post!"></form>

and found it realy hard to adapt to the new code..anyone know how to resolve that?

I've got a script accepted in the myspace script section very similar to what miyashu posted however it keeps screwing with the site's php or something and the HTML section deletes itself so don't use it yet because it is incomplete till the admins can figure it out.
