Hi There Allen,

I am using the stylesheet you were nice enough to share with us. Thanks for that! My only question is about the blue background. In the stylesheet you posted, the blue background shows between every cell. Here, on threadsdev, the blue background is only a frame around the posts, with all the posting info set on an uninterrupted white background.

What do I need to do to have that uniterrupted look?

Many thanks,

Mary

Under Edit Theme Settings in Admin, there should be a selection for Cellspacing and Cellpadding. I use Cellspacing 1 and Cellpadding 3 with great success myself. Try different settings there.

Excelsior!

THANK YOU for replying! []https://www.ubbdev.com/threads/php/images/icons/smile.gif[/] []https://www.ubbdev.com/threads/php/images/icons/smile.gif[/] I tried to change those settings, but no luck. The stylesheet is at

What do you think I am doing wrong?

Many thanks,

A link to your site so I could see what you are doing would help tremendously... if you like you can pm it to me. []https://www.ubbdev.com/threads/php/images/icons/smile.gif[/] It's possible the body background color may be different.

It sounds like you need to add a few lines to your header.php and footer.php creating a separate table in which to "house" your board. That provides the initial table with the blue background and then a 95% table with the actual board content. The lines you'd need to add are:

In header.php:

<br>
<table width="95%" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td align="center" class="menubar"><br>


And in footer.php:

<br></td></tr></table><br>


That should give you the look you're looking for.

P.S. A link would really be helpful in helping you figure out what's going on.

I believe Wraith is correct - we have the entire forum inside another table, do a "view source" here and see where our header/footer starts/stops []https://www.ubbdev.com/threads/php/images/icons/smile.gif[/]
