Let me explain. $phpbb_root_path is the relative path to your phpBB installation. One dot means the current directory, two dots means the parent directory. It always needs a slash at the end.

So if your board is in (like we have here), and the file you want to use is in (the webroot), your $phpbb_root_path has to be: .

If your file is in , $phpbb_root_path would have to be: .

If your file is in , $phpbb_root_path has to be: .

I hope you get it.

Righto, i reckon i should be able to work this out hehe. Fingers crossed.

THinking about it, do i put the html for the navigation in the overall_head.html, and the uniqu CSS for it in the common.css file?

I happen to notice you have a feed on your home page, feeeding topic titles to your homepage. Was this coded by yourself, or was it a mod to export to rss?

thanks again

The class used to create RSS feeds is custom-coded. It uses phpBB's template system.

Thats very clever I'm guessing there are no plans for a public realease hehe.

Could you answer my other question, about the html/css of the header please, then i know if i understand it right. :

Haven't decided which yet, properbly the rising sun one.

Right, ok. I coded the navigation. But i have two quries.

1) I have a button which displays 'login' and one wich says 'logout' for the navigation, how can i add a <if> variable to it, more to the point, what variable do i need?

2) how can i get arid of the line gap in between the top of the banner, and bottom of the navigation.

There is .

i tried this:
<!-- S_USER_LOGGED_IN --><a href="http://dsminded.com/community/ucp.php?mode=logout"><img src="http://dsminded.com/community/styles/proGrey/imageset/logout.gif" width="104" height="31" border="0" alt=""><!-- ENDIF -->


Brings an error up:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '}' in /home/swabru7r/public_html/community/cache/tpl_proGrey_overall_header.html.php on line 108

[harmlessgoat22]

you need to do <!-- IF S_USER_LOGGED_IN -->

[Crispy]

Wicked mate, worked a treat. an't belive i forgot the IF.

I done <!-- IF not S_USER_LOGGED_IN --> for the login button, and it worked a treat.
I used {U_LOGIN_LOGOUT} for the logout url fienld so the session data would match up right. -Worked great

Cheers for your help again evil and harmlessgoat22.
