Chatbox Temporary Fix
When you're typing to a listener, the chat box is too big and the word will go under the send button. When you're typing, you can reset the right variable to 12(*five) and it will fix it. (*I don't have a five key) You start by right clicking, and then clickinginspect element, once you do that, you'll see this code:
<textarea id="Comment" class="form-control" name="Comment" placeholder="Type your message here..." style="height:65px;padding-right:100px;resize:none;"></textarea>
You want to change the underlined part to 12(five).
To exit the developer's console (the inspect element window) you must press f12, or click on the x at the top right cornner of this box only. Please don't x out of the page.
This fix works until you reload the page. After that, you must redo it. I hope this was helpful, and I could use a hand having it explaned to me. I don't get why increacing the right value makes the box decrease. Anyways, you're all wonderful people, and stay strong!
Thank you so much works perfectly! Just note that you want to change the 100 to 125. Make sure you don't add parenthesis or anything.![]()
It would be great if this could be changed permantly.
Thank you again so much! ![]()
@ADozenBabyDogs - That makes the box decrease because you are adding padding to the right. In simple wording it means you are adding extra space to the right side of the element (inner chat area). I hope this explains it.
You can send an email to support desk so it can be fixed:https://www.7cups.com/supportDesk.php
Actually it works the way I described in Firefox 37. I tried it with the parenthesis and that made the problem worse. It only worked for me if I put in 125. I understand what you are saying about the right padding but it worked! It is a "fix" that is really a pain to do each and every session. In my honest opinion, taking that entire javascript element with the send box and everything and moving it outside of the text area would be perfect. Perhaps it is padding from the send box? Not sure exactly since I didn't really look at the code nor follow the script itself. Needless to say, I know it worked my way in Firefox. It might work that way for other users. Coding is so fun! ![]()
Thank you all for the job you do!!! <3
@Flourish: Please ignore my reply to your post. I am so new to this @whoever instead of the old way of just a standard bulletin board of replying underneath the previous posters message.
I vow to get the get the hang of the @ way. :)
Thank you support for all that you do for 7 cups of tea!!!!
@Cinnamon you are welcome. Yes it does work but I was just explaining what happens when you do that. As I said you can send a support ticket so that the change becomes permanent. It will make it easier for you and everyone else.
