phpBay: enlarge clickable zone

Lots of people talking about phpBay sites lately. If you use the “column” view in the latest version of phpBay Pro, you might find the following code snippet helpful. This should make the entire table cell displaying an aution item clickable (even better in my opinion than just the image/title).

The idea is that there is a color change when the cursor enters the region - that should signify an event change, but it doesn’t as it’s currently coded - unless you keep moving to the clickable links (title or title/image) w/in the cell. This snippet makes the whole cell clickable via javascript. If your visitor has a script blocker, then the image and title become links and there is no color change.

Upload the file below via FTP to your hosting provider in the wp-content/plugins/phpBay/templates/ folder (assuming you have the phpBay Pro zip file still - if not, back up your file first by saving it locally or renaming it on your web host - but, seriously, where’s your zip file?).

File: template.column.results.html (right click, save as)
