README.txt in Purr Messages 6.2

// $Id:

This module hooks into the D6 theme registry to override the core message display.

The purr messages, in their default state, look similar to Growl messages 
on OS X and float in their own jquery based windows. The module makes use
of the purr jquery function created by Net Perspective: http://net-perspective.com/

------------------------------------------------------
Install:

Download the module and untar into your site's modules directory. Activate the module
from the Drupal modules page /admin/build/modules
------------------------------------------------------
Usage:

Simply install the module and the core message system will be overridden.
If javascript is turned off the messages revert to the usual core ones.
There is an admin page at /admin/settings/purr which allows you to change
various settings. A default set has been included to give you a start.

You can decided to disable the display of purr style messages on admin pages.

You can also only display purr style messages when explicitly called using the
status parameter of 'purr' in drupal_set_message(). For example, in your custom
code you could call: drupal_set_message('my custom message content', 'purr');
This setting is also useful in conjunction with the Rules action (see below). 
------------------------------------------------------
Rules integration:

There is a custom rules action included which when used in with the purr admin
setting 'Only show purr message style if explicitly called' will allow you
to display a purr message given a specific condition.
------------------------------------------------------
Customisation:

To customise the display of the messages copy the folder called 'purrcss'
from the module's folder and place the copy in your theme folder.
You can then make adjustments to the copied purr.css and images as you see fit.
------------------------------------------------------
Known issues:

IE6 & 7 aren't able to fade pngs with alpha so the code checks to see
whether IE is being used and also for the existence of the setting:

usingTransparentPNG:true.

In which case it simply shows and hides the messages rather than using
the gradual fade technique. Not as pretty but hey, its IE after all.
