I guess this is DP's one of coolest in-house modification, but is there any way to get that as a product? Shawn? [video=youtube;4NbtrnNr8nQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NbtrnNr8nQ[/video]
That's okay.. But, mmmm.. you know, might be for premium members!!?? Or, as a paid product? Please don't mind me suggesting those. Why?? Don't you like to get free things? Well, I'll do that if Shawn say absolutely no to my strong desire for that.
Well, it's not really something that's "simple"... a normal vBulletin installation would slow down quite a bit because it would need to load the entire jQuery framework/library which vBulletin doesn't do normally. I happen to use jQuery for all sorts of other things on the site, so it's always loaded. Adding a 100k overhead to a site that doesn't otherwise use jQuery probably isn't really worth it to be honest.
Okay.. Fine then On a second though, there are some mods in vb.org uses additional js files to function. I guess people won't mind using that little extra load for a feature like this. At least, I won't.
It's obvious that Shawn ain't going to give you the source code even if you paid him, that's why I suggested you to hire someone, because if the modification was available to vBulletin license holders, he would've pointed you to the correct page.
