the "add comment" link Options

[maemcanear]

how do you replace the "add comment" link with different words?
i am basically wanting a code similar to this one:
<a href="http://www.createblog.com/scripts/script.php?id=1831"></a>
but i dont want an image there.
i dont want a comment box,
i dont want a comment button.
i want the same old boring red link at the bottom of the comments,
right where it is on default.
but i want it to say different words than "add comment".
any help?

Here:

CODE

<style>
td.text td.text td td a, td.text td.text td a.redlink, td.text td.text td b a {font:normal 8pt Arial; color:000000;}
td.text td.text td td a:after, td.text td.text td a.redlink:after, td.text td.text td b a:after {display:none;}
td.text td.text td a {font-size:0px;}
td.text td.text td a:after {font:normal 8pt Arial; content:"BLAH";}
</style>

Replace "BLAH" with what you what your Add Comment link to say.

that did not work,
in fact blah didnt show up anywhere on the page.
plus i do not want to change the font,
i want just the default,
and i also have it set to wear my comments and the number of comments is hidden..
nothing else.
literally,
the only thing i need is the code to change the words.

helpppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

let me add some stuff..
i currently have all of my comments hidden,
and the number of comments hidden.
what shows up on my profile page is:
the oarnge bar that says "john doe's friends comments"
under that the blue link says "view/edit all"
and under that the blue link that says "add comment."
thats it.
all i want to do is change those words from "add comment" to whatever i may so choose.
i dont want to change the font size, type, color, etc.
i dont want to do anything but fix that.
i dont want to remove it.
i want to replace the words.

That code works, except in Internet Explorer. If that's what you're using, it really won't work. And no, it doesn't change the font. It just gives you the option to.

[maemcanear]

yea,
i use internet explorer.
that makes no sense it works in other browsers?
so suppose i used a browser it did work on..
and the friend viewing it was on ie,
they wouldnt see what i put..
just "add comment>!"

hey be nice,
im new to this blogging website..
plus i don't recall telling you you couldnt read.

awww please help me haha i want this to work!

just find a code to hide the "add comment" link and then find a code to make a totally new link there.

[Mickey]

Oh yeah, I forgot. Here's the code to hide the Add Comment link at the bottom:

CODE

<style>
td.text td.text td td a, td.text td.text td a.redlink, td.text td.text td b a {display:auto;}
td.text td.text td a {display:none;}
</style>

You can combine that with the code I provided previously.

[maemcanear]

does it matter where i paste it?
see..
your being nice to me now :)

just find a code to hide the "add comment" link and then find a code to make a totally new link there.

that would require extra positioning of the link, and would require it to be re-positioned every time someone wrote a new comment.

to maemcanear, the only way to do it is with the code you found to make the link an image, or using the first code that anarchy provided you (except in IE, of course). doing it any other way would mean directly editing the HTML of your profile, which is impossible.

[maemcanear]

ok well that got rid of the friends section and the comment section and distorted the page baddd.

so basically that idea is shot.
ok well..
if i chose to put a comment button,
could i do it right underneath the comments?

 Capture.JPG ( 14.79K ) Number of downloads: 3

this is what that area looks like as of now.
could i put a comment button there?
and i dont mean like a picture of a star.
i mean like:
 Capture2.JPG ( 9.24K ) Number of downloads: 0

i want everything to look very general,
but modified.
so of course id find the code from some comment generator where the button look like that and i could change the words inside,
and then could i put that in the same spot as the "add comment"?

[maemcanear]

ok :(

if i had a tail id be walking away slowly with it in between my legs.

lol ok so tell me this then,
what is the size, font type, and color of that link?

ok now i see it.
is this what your wanting me to do?

If your MySpace has the default style, your links should automatically come out looking the same. But if you insist, use this code instead:

CODE

<style>
a.acl {font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif,helvetica; font-size:11px; font-weight:bold; color:003399;}
</style>

<div style="position:absolute; top:500px; left:50%; margin-left:330px; width:100px; background:ffffff; display:block;"><a href="http://comment.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile_commentForm&friendID=XXXXXX" class="acl">POST A COMMENT</a></div>

[fixtatik]

lol ok so tell me this then,
what is the size, font type, and color of that link?

myspace's links:

font: verdana, arial, helvetica, or any sans-serif font
regular color: #003399
hover color: #cc0000
size: 11pt at 72dpi

[fixtatik]

^ lol, i figured she would know that part just by looking.
but if we're going technical, underlined on the hover, too.

[maemcanear]

bahaha are yall making fun of me!?

hey heres a question..
i bet your super stoked im still talking to yall.
yea,
i said yall..
i am from tx.

anyways..

if i got that to work,
the last code you sent me where the link that says what i want is covering the "add comment"
ok anyways..
wont the page size move up and down as friends change their images?
is there anyway to control that?
so that my page always stays input?
and if i decide to add more to my about me or whatever,
then i can control the image over the add comment.
but i cant make them not change their pics so it always looks as so.
so can you make the friends section a certain size?
like by height?

[fixtatik]

^ that's what i was saying when you'd have to reposition the link every time. if you don't have your comments hidden, if your friends change their images, if you change anything in your "about me," if you add a new extended network banner...all of those situations you'd have to reposition the link every time.

that's why it would be best to just use an image, with the code that you found in the first place.

[maemcanear]

yall are just too sweet..
