Almost perfect, only two small glitches

I've tested your module. Everything works fine, except two things.

1. How can I correct this ugliness? I mean huge block with system message and red text on dark-blue background. Eeek... Not a sign of it in uddeIM .php files.



2. Button on Compose page looks bad, almost invisible on light background. It's either misses the class of background image. However all other buttons look perfect. Any ideas?



Actually, the whole Compose page looks a bit ugly. And definitely All Users list is NOT on it's place - not user-friendly at all.

Still, the best IM module for Joomla.

P.S.: There's a Russian language on pics, so don't try to read it

I have never seen the red text before? Which template do you use? If it is the default one, it might be coming from the Joomla template.

Could you use Firebug to identify the CSS class?

The buttons should look better in uddeIM 1.7 where I use the standard Joomla styling.

I use standard JA Purity template and all it's system messages look alike. ONLY yours looks diferent. Here's example of the standard system message:

Could you use Firebug to identify the CSS class?

Never used Firebug, but I can easily identify the class via HTML code.

Standard system code look like this:
[code:1]<dl id="system-message">
<dt class="message">Message</dt>
<dd class="message message fade">
<ul>
<li>Message text</li>
</ul>
</dd>
</dl>[/code:1]
Yours look like this:
[code:1]<dl id="system-message">
<dt class="message">Message</dt>
<dd class="message message fade">
<ul>
<li><font color="#CC0000" size="4"><p> </p><p><strong>Message text</strong></p><p>  </p></font></li>
</ul>
</dd>
</dl>[/code:1]
As you can see, there's extra <font> tag with color definition and THREE <p></p> tags which add extra volume. Not any other component or module create this.

The buttons should look better in uddeIM 1.7 where I use the standard Joomla styling.

Any chance to fix it in 1.6? I can do it by my own, if you tell me where to look at.

I am sorry but that is not my code. Have you installed a plugin that modified code?

Well, I found the source of the problem. As I said in another topic, the whole Russian language file is all messed up. These extra tags were inserted by someone into russian.php.

I removed it - looks normal now. Will send you nice and almost clean version of russian.php as promised.

Still, I wanna fix the button issue

You can pull the trunk of uddeIM 1.7 if you like. I don't think that there will be any more code changes but some language files updates.
