Well i want something like when you have 2 new Mails , theres a square or something with "2" on it on the Navigation " inbox" , Is this possible ? maybe with some Js?

Here is some jQuery AJAX to check the length of the default PunBB new PM image:

Code:

$.ajax({
  url: '/privmsg?folder=inbox',
  success: function(ajax) {
    count = $('img[src="http://2img.net/i/fa/punbb/status_unread.png"]', ajax).length;
 
    if (count < 1) {
      $('a.mainmenu[href="/privmsg?folder=inbox"]').html('Messages');
    }

    else {
      $('a.mainmenu[href="/privmsg?folder=inbox"]').html('Messages ('+count+')');
    }
  }
});

I'll leave you up for the editing. Host it the Dion way.

This is my code in overall header from the Navigation.

Code:

<li><a href="/privmsg?folder=inbox">INBOX</a></li>

Can you add cause i ain't understand a word of it

Replace your link with:

Code:

<li><a href="/privmsg?folder=inbox" class="mailbox">INBOX</a></li>

and use this code:

Code:

$.ajax({
  url: '/privmsg?folder=inbox',
  success: function(ajax) {
    count = $('img[src="http://2img.net/i/fa/punbb/status_unread.png"]', ajax).length;
 
    if (count < 1) {
      $('a.mailbox').html('Messages');
    }

    else {
      $('a.mailbox').html('Messages ('+count+')');
    }
  }
});

And replace your "New Subject" icon with this one "https://2img.net/i/fa/punbb/status_unread.png"

Saxy, why i didn't used this before lol its a nice script

Thanks this is solved. Thanks for the support Gangstarr and Saxaca!

Gangstar - no need for your way.
Emilio's running with two navbars - the Forumotion one, with all links but the PM hidden, and his custom drop-down one, located over the navbar template tag.

Assuming you want to use the PM image, host this script in a HTML page, and link it globally:

Code:

$.ajax({
  url: '/privmsg?folder=inbox',
  success: function(ajax) {
    count = $('img[src="http://2img.net/i/fa/punbb/status_unread.png"]', ajax).length;
 
    if (count < 1 ) { }
    else {
      $('a.mainmenu[href="/privmsg?folder=inbox"]').after('<span class="saxPM">'+count+'</span>');
    }
  }
});

The reason I left the "if" in place, is in case you want to add something more.

Style the .saxPM rule as you want. I'd suggest you to position the navbar relative, and the .saxPM absolute.

What this script does, is really simple. It sends an AJAX request to the server, which returns the DOM of the inbox folder page. The count variable searches for matches of the new PM image, and returns the length of them. Based on the length of the image, code is executed to modify the navbar on all pages.

Good luck!

First time I visited here in a few weeks, and this topic got me to re-join.

Using AJAX for this application is like using a flamethrower to light a candle...simple is always best:

Code:

var x = document.getElementById('i_icon_mini_new_message');
if (x) {
$('ul.topnav a[href="/privmsg?folder=inbox"]').after('<span class="dionPM">' + x.title.split(' ')[2] + '</span>');
}

(A version of this code was on my IPBDion board. How did you miss it? )

Damn.. never thought about the split. Damnit!
I never noticed the IPBDion code, I was away in the weekend, and when I came back, IPBDion was deleted

But hey, a flamethrower will certainly light the candle

I'm feeling flattened

Oh, IPBDion is still around...it will be making a return public appearance in the near future.

This should be possible gangstar is allreaddy shown you

IPBDion reminds me more of.. hmm.. the domain redirection explains
