Search options (Page 9 of 119)

I can see an odd character there as well, it appears to be a dot. That of course would result in a space with a height the equivelant of one line of text.

If I view the page with Firefox or Opera and change the character encoding from UTF8 to anything else then I get the same thing i.e. space caused by a garbage character or characters before the doctype.

Check main.tpl. Do you have a space before the doctype. Trying uploading a clean copy of main.tpl.

Its an optical illusion. It is always the same size, it just appears larger when the post is short because there is blank space underneath it. The post has to be tall enough to accommodate the left hand column. If not the user information would stick out the bottom of the post.

You don't need to modify viewtopic.php to put the user information at the top, thats actaully its natural position, its forced to one side by css.

That makes sense. I always write it as Judgment but thats because I'm invariably using it in the context "The Judgment handed down by Lord Justice etc".

In any case, it was neither a judgment nor an opinion, more of a prediction.

Thats because the div has zero height and zero width. What you are seeing are just borders. You will need to set the height and width to the same or larger than your image.

I'm not sure I understand. PunBB doesn't have any images apart from smilies, avatars and post/sig images.

PunBB does not have a built in text editor. You just open the source files in notepad or other text editor and then upload the modified file to your server.

Rather oddly if you try to go to viewforum.php or profile.php you get the out of date link error page minus stylesheet so something is there. At the moment its showing the database error message rather than a blank page. Maybe somebody can figure out whats happening from that.

That seems to be a free host. Any chance they are blocking install scripts.

2C- That should be the name of the empty database you created before running install usually something like "forum" or "pun" or something else appropriate. You did create a database didn't you? That however probably has nothing to do with your current problem but would have been the next problem once the current problem is sorted.

The reason it looks different on IE is that IE is using javascript to resize the image because it doesn't understand max-width.

However, since the default styles are designed not to fall apart the forum won't expand to fit large images so instead of being resized they will be cropped. If you want to change it so you can see all of the image then you either need a style created to do that or scroll posts horizontally using overflow or a javascript solution.

Not really, it has a few page templates but thats not the same thing.

The idea of templating is sound enough but a template engine is over the top, particularly smarty. Why bother when php will do the job and save you the effort of learning a templating language.
