• Javascript based color chooser for floating box background
• Rounded floating toolbar bydefault

NOTE2: Guys floating toolbar need extra care, to make this work need to do two urgent things
1. For joomlal 1.5: Enable the system plugin “System – Mootools Upgrade”(mtupgrade.php as plugin file)
2. Open your template.css file and find the #wrapper or all related css id for wrapper and add position:relative; This is very must. For joomla1.6 please check template css files , example for beez5, open position.css file and do the same.

The floating toolbar is added first time as beta and already we did test and works fine in our test servers.

How to install

• Download the plugin as zip
• Install from joomla admin panel like any other joomla extension
• Go to plugins page and “publish” the plugin
• Configure the plugin as you need
• Change order of that plugin for all content plugins to change the plugin action order so that buttons show near content perfectly…
• that’s it baby!
