Not me, although I'm sure I could do it provided it's not a horribly tangled mess of include files. I could still do it but not sure if I could be arsed. Willing to have a look though.

Sounds good to me mate! I've got my hands full right now with new sites anyway.

Most humble apologies, Paul. I've had loads to do and your kind offer slipped a little

Sorry.

Anywho, I'll PM the css to you, Cow. Hope that's OK. I'm guessing this is a css thing since it's for all pages.

I'm also guessing you can get the php/html from the 'view source'??

Let me know what else you might need. If you have time, that's great but if not, don't worry.

Cheers

I should be able to see what needs changing although you can never get the php from 'view source' as it's parsed by the server before the browser receives it. If it's not a css issue, I'll be in touch...

For what it's worth (not much!) I don't think it's likely to be a css issue. It might be easier looking at the underlying code. Using css to move it to the top of the page could be like using a plastic fork for brain surgery...

would have to agree with paul on this css is mainly for layout etc and its more likely to be the php texting etc etc

OK. What I don't get is that it's obviously something in the template.
From what I understood, the CSS sorted out the layout so it 'cascades' through every page.

If I point you towards the Nosebleed template, then maybe all the code needed will be there??

Alternativly, if anyone can find another good template, please let me know. Nothing dark though. I can't stand dark pages

I really like this idea >> http://demo.mikelothar.com/index.php?s=Subway << but it's maybe a bit fussy.

Or - if anyone wants to produce one from scratch??

If any or all of this is looking like too much work or hassle, then don't bust a nut. I'm sure we can live with it.

i quite like the subway one, wheres the code etc that you got this from i am sure its just built around this etc

It could be a css or php thing. As the site is table based it's almost certainly to be a php fix as Paul says. It's just a case of finding the correct pieces of code from the phpbb source files (of which there are many).

Is it easy for you or hassle?

The link to the Nosebleed zip is above. But here it is again for ease >> http://dwn.mikelothar.com/themes/nosebleed.v1.14.zip
