The template has a small failure, its looking strange if you're board has different width and cellspacing/cellpadding values.
To correct this take this template:
----
<?
echo <<<template
$tbopen
<tr>
<td class="tdheader">
Board Rules
</td>
</tr>
$tbclose
$tbopen
<tr>
<td class="lighttable">
template;
$rules = @file("{$config['path']}/includes/boardrules.php");
if (!is_array($rules)) {
$rules = @file("{config['phpurl']}/includes/boardrules.php");
}
if ($rules) {
while(list($linenum,$line) = each($rules)) {
$boardrules .= $line;
}
}
echo $boardrules;
echo <<<template
</td>
</tr>
$tbclose
<br /><br />
template;
?>
------
Don't know why the original was looking so strange but after comparing it with the viewprivacy.tmpl the above lines came out and are working...
To see the difference I have an example for you:
WRONG (The contact us form has not the right size. Within this example its only a few pixels but this may depend on your theme settings)
RIGHT (The Boardrules have the correct width everytime, no matter what you put in your settings it will fit)
Check it out, I will fix this in the Examples within the next days
