Looks that way... Seems like it could be some problems with the nameservers (can't find the domain when trying to ping it).

OK, I looked and realized the announcement box allows HTML. Very cool. Now, the problem is:

1) Says "announcements" at the top...how can I change that to "Highlights"?

2) The announcements box spreads 100% across the window, but I'll probably using a maximum of 500 pixels. Is there a way to fit the box to the images and center it?

Thanks!

Edit: 500, not 100 pixels smile

1: See the post above.

2: Sure, the announcements box have an id, so just use the stylesheet to set to however you want (div#announce).

Question and comment...

Comment: The "Forum » News" link works fine at the top but at the bottom of the news page it goes to fora.php which is 404.

Question: Is the news.php page a script you wrote yourself or a mod available around here?

Thanks!
Andrew

Thanks for reporting, I forgot to change it when uploading smile

The news.php page is a script I wrote myself, and currently, it's not released anywhere. It's part of a little project I'm working on, and as such, not complete yet. Still, if you'd like to take a look, I could always upload a copy when I get home from work...

very nicely done as always CodeXP.

side note: would you consider converting and releasing your downloads "mod" when 1.3 is released?

Thanks smile

It's actually not my mod, it was Mediator who created it. Unfortunately, I he only ever released a v1.0 version, with a *lot* of bugs. I've fixed many of them, and changed things a bit, but not all bugs are fixed (the ones remaining is mainly related to the creation of download forums, though it's possible to work around it).

You can find Mediator's original mod here: http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=9076

If I can get all the bugs fixed, I will post the changed files here smile

.pun textarea, .pun input { color: #000066 }

That should take care of it smile

Putting it at the bottom of your stylesheet should work just fine smile

For the most part I think regular rectangular borders works fine, it's just that I wanted them for this particular theme, but thanks for the link... Might have to read up on it smile

The hard part about it this time, was mostly that the markup is already pre-made, so there are only a set number of elements to style. I did add a couple of divs to the .tpl, and a few other tweaks, but other then that, it went ok.

By the way, when working on 1.3, wouldn't it be a good idea to be very consistant with the use of tags? What I mean is, it kinda surprised me that while for the most part, all H2 elements contained a SPAN tag, there are exceptions troughout the code. This made it a little more difficult to just use CSS to achieve the look I was going for..

As you have, so have I, come to the realization that all web presences surround feedback.

Only a forum can do a conversation justice, the logical central building block of a site.

Everything else becomes a means to elicit a discussion, a welcome, a hey see what I got.

Maybe one day we can meet along the road wink

You're confusing me a little here lol

This will do that...

#brdtitle, #brdtitle P {padding:0; text-align:center; color:#fff}

I'd recommend you to remove/change this line from your header though:

<a href="http://www.d1acollegefootball.com/Forums/index.php"><p align="center"><img src="http://www.d1acollegefootball.com/Forums/img/D1ACF/ban1.png"></a>

You can't nest a paragraph inside the A tag, and even if you could, you still haven't closed the tag. Also, there is no such thing as align="center" in proper XHTML.

I just created a new theme for my website again, so here's a new showoff topic smile

This one took me some time to get to the point it is now, and while there are still some work left on the style (cleaning up the CSS some more..), I think it's ready to be used.. It wasn't easy making most of the boxes rounded (especially these elements), but I think the end result was worth it...

Since my last showoff topic, I've also integrated the lightbox JS among various other tweaks (see this topic for an example)..

So, for those of you that would like to take a look, here's the link: TASARINAN.COM

Feedback is always appreciated smile

Awesome thanks. Got it to work. No I forgot how I got the pictures in there. Say do you know a way to remove the title text in the header in the style.css instead of the main.tpl? I want to have another style besides this one that WILL use the title area text.

Absolutely, here you go smile

Here you go:

What happens if you try * html #menu ul {width: 100%; padding-right: 40px}

You know, I think I love you right now wink It solved the problem, thanks a lot for your help! It's kinda strange that it did though, but of course, this *is* IE we're talking about...

EDIT: Screenshot of IE actually working

http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/9058/iefixed4wd.th.jpg

I did set the padding & width on #brdmenu instead, just so it wouldn't mess with my existing hover & active page effect, but it worked just as well smile

Paul wrote:

What about replacing the left and right margins on #punwrap with left and right padding on body.

NB: It doesn't work in 1.3 either.

Doesn't work either... I also tried creating a simple .html file, with the following contents, but the results in IE is the same..

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Test case #1</title>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
html,body,ul,li {margin:0;padding:0}
li{display:inline}
#wrap { margin: 158px 20px 20px 20px }
#menu {
    position:absolute;
    left:0;
    top:0;
    right:0;
    background:#333;
    width:100%
}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>

<div id="wrap">
    <div id="menu">
        <ul>
        <li>link 1</li>
        <li>link 2</li>
        <li>link 3</li>
        </ul>
    </div>

<p>some content</p>

</div>

</body>
</html>

Works fine in other browsers though, even IE7 (which actually doesn't need width:100%).

EDIT: Removed doctype to test IE's quirks mode, and the results are the same.

decaf wrote:

Maybe you should give both the ul and the div a width of 100%?

Already tried wink

Tried playing around a bit by setting various size/margins/padding etc. on .pun, but with the same result.

Here's how it looks by using 100% on the UL:

Paul wrote:

Does #punwrap have a defined height or width (maybe in the hacks section of the stylesheet). If so, try removing it and see what happens. You will still need to give the menu 100% width though but it might change the way IE handles positioning.

No, #punwrap only has those margins listed above, no size set anywhere... I just can't for the life of me figure out how to solve it properly by just using CSS.

EDIT: I'll try 100% on the UL, thanks for the tip smile Unfortunately, I don't have a live demo yet, but I'll post a link when I do.

Nobody have any ideas?


At this point, I'm hating IE so much, that I'm feeling tempted to serve it a text-only version of my site wink

The thing is though, there's not really any special code that should be able to cause the install.php script to not load completely, until after you actually submit it. Basically, there's just a few checks to see if certain functions exists. Certainly nothing that should be able to cause problems, as long as the server itself is correctly configured.

What does the log files of your server say?

What browser do you use? If using FF, try right clicking the page, and choose page info. I'm just wondering if your pages could be sent as an image, or some other incorrect type. I've seen this happened on a phpBB forum before, due to some messed up server config... this of course resulted in some very strange behaviour, with one of the symptoms being that the pages only loaded partially, if at all.

EDIT: Try adding the following code to install.php, directly below $punbb_version = '1.2.11';

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');

Sounds strange though, as at this stage of the install, there's not even any DB queries done yet.. Does this happen to any other scripts on your server?
