Is there a way to add more emoticons to the forum or are the 30 emoticons hardcoded.  This would be a nice featue to add.  The Particular audience for my forum likes different emoticons than the standard ones.  I thought maybe adding a scrollbar to the side or a link to a popup page that would dynamically be built from the Emotions Directory.

Thanks

Hi Don,

Great suggestion I'll include this ability within the next release.

As a temporary work around creating a pop-up dialog would be the cleanest solution.  You could use a VBScript window (showModalDialog) to load an aspx page that as you say scans the emoticons directory and builds a table.

This window could then pass the emoticon code back into the WYSIWYG editor.  I would suggest using the VBScript createRange method to paste the emoticon code back into the editor.

This would work very similar to the pop-up dialog box currently used to insert a table into the editor.  You could pinch some code from the functions.js file within the wysiwyg directory to make this easier.

I hope this helps, as i say i'll look into ways to add this to the next release. I'm currently working on V2 of InstantGallery.NET but once this is complete i'll release a minor update for the forums with this feature
