AIR-Box for Phpbb 3.0

A.I.R. Box - Auto Image Resizer Box - mod for PHPBB 3.0

Let images breathe inside your layuot!

It nicely resolves the known problem of large posted images breaking your layout resizing them to perfectly fit and shows in a lightbox. It is based on a small script (airbox.js) that also include Slimbox code. (by C. Beyls). It uses [img] bbcode, or a custom [slideshow] bbcode to create slideshows with titled images.
A [signature-img] custom bbcode was added in latest release for posting images in signature without lightbox effect. It could be used in combination with [url] for linking images.
It doesn't touch all other images like banner images, etc.. as well signature images. Now attachments images also are resized and show in a lightbox.
Users can also post their Flickr images in a nice flash slideshow.

I wrote this mod because I coudn't found one using onDOMready function, instead ONload. Actually this one does it and now when you click on images before the page is loaded the script already works in a reliable way.

Installation is really easy and requires modding of 1 line into 3 files only (one of them is a template file) and no database changes. All this means you'll have no problems upgrading your board in the future. All changes and additions are tagged to easily locate them after install. Original lines are preserved throgh comments.
In the included XML file you can find complete instructions and documentation.
It has been tested succesfully with Firefox 2.0 & 3.0, Internet Exporer 6.0 & 7.0

While 40% of raised funds will be used for the maintanance of the site, 60% will be sent to sustain the medical regional aid program of pediatry and cardiac surgery of Emergency in Africa.

In Soba, a small village along the banks of Blue Nile, 20 KM from Khartoum, Emergency opened in April 2007 the Salam Center of Cardiac Surgery, the only structure able to guarantee a free and high level medical support to cardiopathic children and adults from Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo, Central Africa Republic, Chad, Libya.
In this immense region Emergency will build a network of satellite clinics connected to the Salam Center in order to provide basic pediatric medical services, following the example of the pediatric center of Emergency in the refugee camp of Mayo, in Khartoum, which became active in December 2005.
The first centers will be active in the Central Africa Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda and other four in Sudan.
Through the regional project of cardiac surgery, Emergency wants to contribute in the building of cooperative relationships between the involved countries, a necessary preface for the peace keeping of an area harassed by war and poverty.
