Maybe you could implement the IPB fix ? It'd make the site wrap the forum right.

I'd donate one which you could use as your own. it's a skin on the backburner which matches IPB very well :)

send me a pm with the demo link (I'll check it out... )
Perhaps we'll change the skin every couple of months with a featured designer [that doesnt sound half bad -- as long as the plugins all line up]

Thanks :). It took a lot of time to come up with. Was going to use it for something else, but it just did'nt fit kinda.

I'm solving a problem that affects my skins and IPB right now. I think I'm close to an answer. Sorry for the wait, but I need to get it sorted out first.

The nature of this problem by the way has to deal with nested tables. I'm starting to think that it would be better to make specific forumskin.php files for some bb systems. A nested table does not work correctly in invision power board due to attributes which cannot be overwritten due to the IPBWrapper div layer surrounding Subdreamer. When I need a certain effect badly, I can always use a nested div when I need to use one.

Surely no developer likes this prospect of creating extra files for different BB's, nor would subdreamer staff; but what else is there to do ? The only BB's I can think of which would cause these indiffencies would be IPB and SMF so VB and PhpBB could share a file.

I am re-writing all of my forumskin files to suit IPB at the moment, and making distinctive bb specific upload files within a "forumskins/ipb/.." etc folder.

I do'nt stop till I solve the problem, came up with a few viable ways to solve this problem. I see that table and cell height are directly related when skinning ipb, and what the line-height solution does. ie 6 in compliant mode will screw a nested table not given a height relative to it's container. Yet since IPB makes it's forum out of stacked tables ( as most do ) the ipbwrapper div forces the tables to break.

Before I was thinking that ipb might need its own forumskin; yet now I'm sure of it. I'm currently trying rendered divs and paragraphs nested in non-nested table cells to achieve a match. Why bother updating my skins or giving this one rather if it does'nt work in ipb. But, I'm sure it will, the solution's afoot ! lol. I will post my details once I have a fixxer-upper supper.

I had to go out last night and have a good time or else I would&#39;ve thrown my monitor out the window lol. Met some very nice ladies and had a nice get-together with a few pitchers of beer. Ate wayy too many nachos though >.< ( burp* ).
