Hey, um I modified some of my skins, so that the default table width was 95%. When I skin my forum, it grabs some other width variable. I'm trying to figure out where I can change my phpBB table width to 95%.

Any clues?

overall_header.tpl I believe it is,,,, in the phpbb templates directory, subsilver for example.

Does any notice weirdness with the menu items after you skin your forum? In IE, all my top level menu items are evenly spaced, and displayed correctly. In Firefox, some of my menu item texts bleed together.

I figured this out, so I'm going to answer my own question in case someone else has this issue.

If your SD header is not displaying properly after skinning your forum, it is because the process that writes the header does not include a DTD tag. I assume this is because the forum already has a DTD tag. So, if your SD header logs garbled, it is because the DTD tag for your skin is different than the DTD tag of your forum.

You wouldn't happen to know where the width setting is for the box when you create a new topic would you (the area you type in). Thats the only thing that goes over the edge of my skin :\
