openid buttons only work when clicked on image

Hi,

The OpenID buttons only work when you click on the image itself. I've had several complaints about the button not working when someone clicks in the div (but not on the image). I've looked at the JavaScript but am not really good with it and not sure how to change it to work for the entire div instead of the image only.

Thanks.

You're right. But is not javascript doing it, is a pure html anchor tag, the thing is that is only surrounding the image and not the div. The code is on /forum/skins/default/templates/auth/signin.html around line 53.

Only facebook, twitter, google, and yahoo have an achor tag. All the other ones do not. So I do believe that Javascript is doing it for those ones at least.

Try turning the borders off around the openid provider images. Then the user will not think that the whole div is a button.
