Hide New Message Count in DotNetNuke Profile Link

If you use a custom messaging module in dotnetnuke and don't want to see the new message count from DNN built in Messaging Module set dnnUSER skin object ShowUnreadMessages property to false.

Example:
<dnn:USER runat="server" id="dnnUSER" CssClass="register" ShowUnreadMessages="false" />

Simple Color Picker - a jQuery color picker control

It's been a while since I build this small plugin for jQuery, While browsing through my files I try to see if this plugin still works with the latest version of jQuery which is 1.3.2 and it did. I have updated the sample and change the file names so it is easy to recognize. I also move the downloads to my google site, Download here . Focus on the input box below or click on the box next to the control to show color picker. Basic Sample jQuery(function($) { $("#vtrColorPicker").attachColorPicker(); }); Change Background jQuery(function($) { $("#vtrColorPicker1").attachColorPicker(); $("#vtrColorPicker1").change(function() { $("#content-wrapper").css("background-color",$("#vtrColorPicker1").getValue()); });

dnnAlert and dnnConfirm jQuery Plugin

I like the idea of using jQuery Plugins in DNN for interactive and consistent user interface which is why I digg into using dnnAlert and dnnConfirm plugins, however after a quick look on the documentation I notice the following. For dnnAlert you can't set the title. We are allowed to set the OK button text using okText option but not the dialog title? For dnnConfirm. This is very usefull when you just want a confirmation dialog upon click on your button or link however you can't use it like javascript confirm function or at least I don't know how to use it like below: if(confirm('Question?')){//some code}

Example on how to use dnnConfirm jQuery Plugin

The JS code below will show a dnn confirm dialog upon click on any button with my-Button class.  Pay attention to isButton option on initialization and the isTrigger parameter on button click. //initialization $(".my-Button").dnnConfirm({     text: "Confirm Message",     title: "Confirm",     isButton: true }); //button click handler $(".my-Button").click(function (e, isTrigger) {     if (isTrigger) {         // Your code here     }     return false; });
