You can use bulleted lists anywhere you want. The stylesheet sets a default for no bullets but you can override it for any element on the board with an appropriate css declaration. Just give the lists in your rules an id and style them however you wish.

I tend to agree with pogenwurst. Forum functionality is really geared to organising topics with the details of posters being somewhat secondary and even, where guest posting is enbabled, totally irrelevant. When you think about it a forum will function perfectly without user profiles at all. Social Networking is a different thing alltogether with the system being centered around user identity. I'm not sure its a good idea to try and turn one into the other.

This is getting a bit off topic. To clarify; I changed the description because most people seeing a topic entitled "Majour security issue" would assume it was some kind of exploit being reported and not a topic about spam prevention.

The way PunBB sorts topics is pretty much standard for forums, and blogs for that matter. Putting the latest post first would move the topic to the end which kind of makes the thread meaningless. However, I think it is simply a matter of altering one of the queries and I'm sure somebody will be along in a minute to tell you how.

I've tested again. Fine in Firefox, Opera and Safari. In IE scrolling using the scrollbar is a little jerky. If I block javascript then everything works fine in IE.

Bumped because I just deleted the spam in this thread and the replies to it.

Please repeat in French. There are French members who can translate your question better than Google.

Actually, to be really strictly accurate, the situation with   is a bit more complicated. Its valid html and should be valid xhtml. If you are serving xhtml as html then there should be no problem. If you are serving xhtml as xml then the xml parser may well only allow the 5 named entities which are valid xml. The reason for the problem is that an xml parser trying to parse xhtml would have to query the xhtml doctype to ascertain what entites were defined there. If it doesn't do that then it will only regard the allowed xml entities as valid. Since the approach is different from browser to browser it is safer to treat xhtml as if it were xml and only use the 5 named entities permitted by xml which are <, >, &, " and &apos. It should however be noted that &apos; it not valid html.

MattF is probably partly right about the validator. They recently updated it so it could check documents served as xml and it probably needs some fine tuning.

The short answer is if you treat xhtml as if it were xml and use numeric references then you will never have a problem. The alternative is to use utf-8 and enter the real character.

main.tpl does stand for main template. You could have made it work without changing main.tpl but it involved some rather advanced css which would have needed a lot of tinkering to work properly. The problem is the style author didn't design the css to work with transparent backgrounds. Had he done so the css would have been different in the first place.

a {margin-right: 10px}

You should also put an ordinary space between them as well. If you want fine grained control of the spacing then float them left which will collapse the white space and make the margin setting completely accurate. You will of course have to add appropriate css to clear the floats to make the container shrink wrap the links.

That will work fine. In fact its a good way of playing with the css on your own machine if you don't want to install a server. Only problem is if you want a complete copy e.g. all topics rather than just examples of each page it could get rather tedious.
