my live chat is working fine but i don't see the borders its just a one black window without borders in between separating the left chat side and the right username side
borders are visible when i pop it out
they are also visible when i change the theme to a light colored one
its at the bottom as center block http://missflowerzone.clanservers.com/phpnuke/index.php

it is also not showing the updating/idle line at the top with even the light theme

how to fix the borders ? they are of the same color as background color of my theme Confused

i also want to know how to change background color
a variable named $bgcolor2 is used in the code but i am not able to track where it is initialized

Tried to look at the site but it keeps timing out for me.
$bgcolor is set in your themes theme.php file

Open modules/Live_Chat/lib/class.chat.php

At or around line 149 find.

Code:

$chatBox .= '
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" style="width: 100%;">
<div id="scroll" style="border: 1px solid '.$bgcolor2.';position: relative; height: 260px; overflow: auto; padding: 2px; text-align: justify;"></div>
</td>
<td valign="top" style="width: 140px;">
<div id="online" style="margin-left: 2px; border: 1px solid '.$bgcolor2.';position: relative; width: 138px; height: 260px; overflow: auto; padding: 2px; text-align: justify;"></div>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" colspan="2">
<div style="border: 1px solid'.$bgcolor2.'; margin-top: 2px; padding: 4px;" align="center">
<div style="margin-bottom: 4px;">
Font Size: '.$size_select.'
Font Color: '.$color_select.'

You can change " 1px solid '.$bgcolor2.'; " to a larger number like 2 or 3. If that doesn't make it show up you can also change " 1px solid '.$bgcolor2.'; " to something like " 1px solid #0000FF; "

You want to do this for all three times to make the main chat and the other 2 windows match.

You can find color codes by googleing "HTML Color Code"

P.S. Just keep in mind that if you change the color setting, if your users are allowed to change their Themes... the color choice may not match the theme they choose.

You can open themes/YourTheme/style/style.css and change the color of " $bgcolor2 " to something different. Seems your theme has the background and border colors the same color.
