What are the configuration options for jGrowl that are specific to QuickBase? I have found them for use outside QuickBase but I couldn't get some of them to work within QuickBase. I am most interested in changing the color and location of the jgrowl message.
I managed to find the CSS page that manages the jGrowl and here is what I found. There are options for: jGrowl-green jGrowl-warning jGrowl-error jGrowl-noClose (*no x in the top right of message box) jGrowl-notification (default) jGrowl-closer (centered text in the message box) *if you don't use "theme:'jgrowl-[option]' " then your box will look like jGrowl-notification Options you can use: - glue:'after' or 'before' *determines where new messages will be added. Either the beginning of the list or at the end of the list - header: 'your header here' *Adds a header line to the message box - life: 5000 *Message box lasts for 5 seconds. - sticky: true or false *If true, the message box will not disappear until it has been exed out or the page refreshes. false is default setting There are others but these seem to be the most useful of the settings that work within QuickBase.
Unfortunetely, you cannot change the location of the message box(es) (as well as some other settings) as that must be changed in the defaults before the startup method is called. You can't change the icon within the theme options but I have not tried adding an image into the body where the text would be.
When it comes to using custom javascript in Quickbase there are some options today to use it in fields and forms that are going to be changing over the next year. As a result we are encouraging anyone who is using Javascript to do so within code pages which are going to continue to be accessible or to look at alternatives that use our native features where possible. You can learn more about this change in our recent post right here.
