ZBrushCentral

just alittle weird thing i thought I'd point out

Has anyone else noticed on ZBC that when you put the mouse over some of the links to strings, the link underlines, and on some, it doesn’t… Any idea what determines whether or not the links do that or more importantly, what the heck they are for?

Hi Zero
If a link don’t work, it’s just a little syntax error in the post thread or an error of address or a dead link :smiley:

Hello Zero! :wink:
Yes it depend from the style applyed to particular page! :smiley:
With the web page editor (like Dreamweaver etc…) is possible to set a style of the apparence of the web document ! One of this is the way how the link appears: is possible to disable the underline and to add more effect ! :wink:
Hope that is clear… (my english… )! :smiley:

I haven’t noticed this at all, actually. What OS and browers do you use?

I don’t think I made myself clear. What I was referring to is called a text rollover. You put the mouse over the text, and it changes color, style, or underlines itself, and when you remove the mouse, it changes back. This is achieved with some basic JavaScript or CSS. I noticed on ZBrush Central that links to some threads have this effect, and some do not. I was wondering if Anyone else had noticed this, and why it was that some did have the rollover efffect, and some did not. It may be that the effect only works on very new browsers. I have netscape 7.0, basically the newest big browser out there except AOL 8.0(which is stupid if you ask me), and I’m running Windows ME, though I doubt that’s important.

Edit:
Your english is fine by the way MR. Braun, I just think I didn’t say what I meant to say clearly enough even for the english speakers out there…

I use IE6 on Win2K. All of ZBC’s text links appear as plain orange. Since I have my “underline links?” setting set to hover, links only are underlines if Imove my mouse over them, so it is not an actual CSS/Java thing as far as I know. :slight_smile:

I know very little about Explorer, seeing as Im a netscape user, but I don’t believ it has to do with your browser settings. This is because the web page does this rollover effect over some but not all links, making me believ that it must have been coded specially into those links…

Well, looking at ZBC’s code, i’s bet they have someone, or probably a program changing the web page’s source as we speak. What I expected was that in the HTML tabl, there would be a link, and it would be to topic#****** , whatever, and the source of the link would be determined by looking into a file saved on the ZBush server. That file would be determined by what we type in in these text boxes. That wasn’t so, it simply said in plain text the name of the topic, and the link making no reference to the way the page was changing to match all the posts and topics, leading me to believe that there is some sot of twisted magic at work… ok actually it makes me think that when we hit the “add reply” button after we type our message, the web site saves the contents of our message to a server, on that server there is a program which looks at the messages being sent to it and changes ZBrush Central accordingly… Just a guess. However my original question remains unanswered, and I think I’ll do some more snoopng around looking at the source code for every page at pix.com ntil I find out why!!!

This is simply the difference between links that have been visited and links that have not. The ones that have not been visited do not have an underline.

If you would like to show them all without underlines, simply clear your internet history. Of course, that will only last until the next time you visit a link…

o, so simple, yet so complicated… No I like the rollovers, i was just wondering why some had them and some didnt.TNX aurick
