Default (skinning/forum tips) PM in RED

I just want to have a back up of my small modification..

This is simple modification that turns PM Link into RED once you received private message.

Installation Path: AdminCP->HTML Templates->Manage HTML->Global HTML elements-> Board Header(logo, links, etc) ... edit single and add to bottom.

Code:
<script type='text/javascript'>
// Coded by: MasterVision
// Date coded: June 12, 2007
e = document.getElementById('userlinks')
a = e.getElementsByTagName('A')
for (i =0; i < a.length; i++) {
if (a[i].href.indexOf('act=Msg&CODE=01') != -1) {
s = a[i].innerHTML
if (s != "0 New Messages"){
   var new_s = "<span style='color:red; font:bold;'>" + s + "</span>";   
   a[i].innerHTML = new_s;
}
break
}}
// -->
</script>
Enjoy... and hope this helps

I have installed your code and it's great!!!

Thanks,

I see that you made the font bold, but for some reason it does not go bold on my board. I copied it exactly as it is, and it works fine, just doesn't go bold.

Do you have any idea why?
