A link to your site might help. In fact, it is a requirement of this board.

If you need it wider then make it wider - this is a matter of CSS as far as I can see. Alternatively, add some non-breaking spaces to the HTML tag.

Hi Phil, i don't mind giving the link but it is not going to help since i need change in admin area so password is also required. I don't feel safe to give my admin password in this forum. I might do it but PM only

Hi Joachim,
any particular para i need to see in css will help me a lot. As i am not expert but i can do things on my own if i know what i need to change in specific file and particular code.

thanks for replying, Joachim. Can you please specify more details......

Providing a link as per the board rules which I will not explain. We are aware it is in the admin area.

http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,55415.msg270616.html#msg270616

If you would like to post a link and zip a copy of your custom (cpg1.4) theme folder and attach it to your post then we do not need an admin password.

Telling us how the application we provide actually works is a tad bit much.

I don't feel safe to give my admin password in this forum.
Nobody asked for it. We need a link to your gallery to see your stylesheet. We don't need to see your config screen.

You have been told that we need the link to your gallery. Go ahead and do as you have been told if you want help, because we can't help you if you don't do as we told you. All I can see so far is someone who is behaving difficult. Additionally, Phill told you to zip your custom theme folder and attach the theme to your posting. I have nothing else to say: Phill posted exactly the same information that every other supporter would have posted as well.

You should have read board rules in the first place, where you would have learned about the feature of this board to tag threads as solved using the tick icon...

Your gallery is outdated: you're running cpg1.4.19, although the most recent stable release currently is cpg1.4.25. It's mandatory to upgrade. Apart from that, I can see nothing wrong.

thanks for your reply. OK i will upgrade to latest ver

how should i increase the width of drop down menu so that i can see full Album name and hence i don't select wrong album at the time of upload.

I'm not sure what your actual question is: the width of a <select>-box will be determined by the elements that populate it. You can change that by actually assigning a width attribute to it as you see fit. Adding
Code: [Select]
width:100%;to the definition of the class listbox in http://m3.dyees.com/themes/blue/style.css should do the trick. Another option would be to edit http://m3.dyees.com/upload.php with a plain text editor. Find
Code: [Select]
<select name="$name" class="listbox">and replace with something like
Code: [Select]
<select name="$name" class="listbox" style="width:100%;">This is plain HTML/CSS skills and in no way related to coppermine though.

Sounds like your album names are too long then. Mine show just fine using your custom theme on my testbed, see attached screenshot.

What are you waiting for? To get hacked? Update now!
