This code will put a table at the top of your forum and add a link to the user's bar that allows the member to show and hide the table. make sure you edit it correctly otherwise you'll get the wrong forum's top posters!

Global/Main Header
<table border='0' class='border' align='center' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='3' id='w_top_table' width='150px' style='display: none;'>
    <tr>
        <td class='title1' align='center'>Top Posters</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td class='window1' id='top_holder'></td>
    </tr>
</table><br>

<script>
/*Top Posters Table.
Created By Wrighty
No Rip, Repost or anything!*/

var _u = 'wrighty';
var _t = '5';

var _l = '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2">';
var _s = 'http://'+_u+'.virtualforums.co.uk/javascript/top_posters.php?max='+_t;
document.write('<script src = ' + _s + '></sc'+'ript>');
function footer(){
    for(i=0;i<top_posters.length;i++){
        _l += '<tr><td width="75%" align="left"><a href="/action/view_profile/user/'+top_posters[i][0]+'/" class="'+top_posters[i][2]+'">'+top_posters[i][1]+'</a></td><td width="25%" align="right">'+top_posters[i][3]+'</td></tr>';
    }
    _l += '</table>';
    get('top_holder','id').innerHTML = _l
    var _a = document.createElement('a');
    _a.onclick = function(){
        get('w_top_table','id').style.display = (get('w_top_table','id').style.display=='none')? '' : 'none';
    };
    _a.href = 'javascript: void(0);';
    _a.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Top Posters'));
    get('pms','id').firstChild.insertBefore(document.createTextNode(' :: '),get('pms','id').firstChild.firstChild);
    get('pms','id').firstChild.insertBefore(_a,get('pms','id').firstChild.firstChild);
}
</script>

Global/Main Footer:
<script>
footer();
</script>

Edit the red parts. They're the important parts.

Where I have 'Wrighty' is where you want to put the USERNAME of your board. Such as: support. Also, where I have '5' is the number of top posters to display. Max is 10!

Hey Wrighty what do you mean about the username of the board. Do you mean the admins username or the board url like it's support here

Edit: My code isn't working.

Code:

Select All

        <td class='title1' align='center'>Top Posters</td>

Link to your site? I've tried the original code on my test board and it seems to work ok, so perhaps recopy the code?

As for the "board username" he means the portion before the ".virtualforums.co.uk", so for here it would be 'support'

http://gamerspark.vforums.co.uk
I also added the global footer part and it stlil doesn't work

I've registered on your site and it works alright in FF, but seemingly not in IE Is it IE you're using?

I think this will be one for Wrighty to sort out

Yeah i have IE 7. So i'm guessing Wrighty has FF. Thats why it doesn't work?

I think it could be a simple browser compatability issue, but Wrighty will know for certain and should be able to provide a cure

I have fixed it and it seems to work on your forum in IE now!

Also updated the first post to the recent version. Let me know if it doesn't work!

It always worked fine in IE7 for me.

it works great now thanks!

it works great now thanks!

Happy to help!

Will this work in main footers?

Will this work in main footers?

It doesn't matter where you place the code, as long as the first portion is placed above the second.

I can't get it to work.

Find this line in the Top Posters code:

<table border='0' class='border' align='center' cellspacing='1' cellpadding='3' id='w_top_table' width='150px' style='display: none;'>

Remove the green.

No - there's a link that appears in the top 'user bar' ... well there should be!

I don't have the user bar on there..... so that's why.

Here are previews of what this code does:
