Joey: I assume your sig now refers to the 2006 World Cup.

Or you could go to XHTML 1.1 in which case you can theoretically use the target attribute module via your own DTD. But then you run into the problem of the style attribute being deprecated. I feel an experiment coming on.

More generally, my main concern is the help system. You can for example read the bbcode help whilst completing your post if you tile your windows. You could probably achieve greater functionality by having bbcode help etc in a div above/below the post box which has it's display setting toggled on and off. That can be done with php server side style switching. Actully its pathetically simple, same method as colour striping in viewtopic.php.

I must admit, I have never given a second though to what to do about links in posts. That could be because I always right click and open new window anyway.

You learn something new everyday. What would you prefer, Bilbo or Frodo big_smile

Is this it?

I very much doubt it. Anyway, I wouldn't know, I'm just bashing out the xhtml and css.

BTW. I have to admit, the plugin system looks rather tasty. If I every need a CMS I will know where to look.

You will have to talk to Rickard about seeing his dev code.

Because it's not finished and there still some browser testing to do as well as some accessability testing (hopefully with Jaws or at least Homepage reader). Validation is the easy bit. Getting rid of tables was also fairly easy. Trying to make it semantic, accessible and solid across browsers is not so easy.

Absolutely not.

hcgtv: if you have not already seen it, take a look at this thread
http://punbb.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=4121

Greece 1 - 0 France

What else is there to say.

The bottom line is there is no pressing reason to validate as strict particularly when it means altering existing functionality (subject to further instructions from the boss man). The only people who are likely to be bothered by this are those who want to integrate PunBB into a site that already validates as strict. In that case they will certainly have the know how to make the appropriate changes as rADo has demostrated.

It is not .punhot. In fact there is no css relating specifically to those items. The color is simply the color set for text throughout the board. Really the <td> should have had class="punhead" so that the text would have been the same colour as the other table headers.

Try this. Find the line in the css which says
TD.punhead { color: #whatever }
Before it insert this line
TR.punhead TD { color: #whatever }

If that screws up anything else on you board you will have to edit  admin_reports.php

Would have been easier to wait for 1.2. But it doesn't use strict I think. Anyway... Nice colors smile

1.2 uses transitional but only because it supports target=_blank. Otherwise it would validate as strict or even 1.1

BTW: Nice blog and forum

That answered my question, you opened the links in the same window which is fair enough.

By my reckoning it was England 2 - 1 Portugal after 90 minutes.

nevermind, I did it already wink All pages are XHTML 1.0 STRICT valid.

What did you do about target_blank. Javascript or just open in the same window?

Attempted translation:

Surely somebody here is able to change moderator privileges so that they can only make changes in forums and not ban people and change user details etc.

Jesus, Holland isn't going to be easy, that's for sure.

You think thats bad. Playing Portugal in Lisbon is going to be no picnic either.

Basically, I find it easiest to do it the other way around. Try including the relevant parts of your site in main.tpl which is really just a simple web page. What will happen is that when PunBB generates its pages it will include all the other stuff you put in main.tpl as well.

No. It is changing in <pun_head>. If you have not already done so try putting your stylesheet link between <pun_head> and </head> so it comes after the stylesheet link inserted by PunBB.

It should make no difference whether you have selected a style or are using the default style. Either way the stylesheet link gets output in the same place. I suspect the reason you notice the difference is the default style does not conflict with your own styles. Try changing the default stylesheet and see if you get the same problems.

Moderator isn't a status symbol.

What you need to do is find this line is index.php and viewforum.php

$icon = '<img src="img/'.$cur_user['style'].'_new.png" width="16" height="16" alt="">';

I think its around line 91 in index.php and line 168 in viewforum.php depending on your version. Just comment out the existing line and substitute the same code but with the name of your universal icon e.g.

$icon = '<img src="my_new.png" width="16" height="16" alt="">';

I will try to come up with a better idea which doesn't involve hacking around with the code.
