I think you missed my point. I want the look and feel of proSilver ... that's the big appeal of phpbb3. But I don't want to mess with all of the CSS conflicts between phpBB's proSilver template and integrating it into my website. I'm open to suggestions but I'm not switching my entire 7 year old website over to divs and CSS at this time to accommodate a change in phpBB. I'm sure many other people will be experiencing the same conflicts that I'm running into as well. I haven't really dived into the proSilver code yet to figure out what's the fastest way to integrate the new phpBB3.0 into my website. I will keep all of you posted with what I come up with.smithy_dll wrote:By the official wording in the W3c HTML documentation, tabular layouts were never Traditional or standard HTML. It was only ever, and will only ever be a back created in the 90s to get around layout limitations in HTML before the advent of CSS.
If you really want traditional HTML, go back to when it didn't support font colours.
Of course if you still desire tables, there is subSilver2 distributed in the box.
Can be long and tiresome depending on what you need to convert, but I agree.Xabi wrote:I'm experiencing the same conflicts (I have a 6 years old portal) and my point is: put your website up to date and leave behind that old, slow-loading table design. I'm redesigning my portal to fit today tableless standards. Instead of adding tables to phpBB3, you have to evolve and improve your website, or you'll have more and more problems in the future.
That is only possible with a semantically architected webpage, to say it best is to quote you on that.Seibertron wrote:I want the look and feel of proSilver
It is in fact easier to recode into semantics than it is to murder the semantic oasis that is prosilver.Seibertron wrote:... that's the big appeal of phpbb3.
It would be far less work to figure out how to integrate the new phpBB into my website than the other way around. My website doesn't revolve around phpBB. It's a very small part of the website compared to all of the other content and sections on the site.OrsoDesigns wrote:Its just my 2 cents but to me it makes more sense if your going to spend the time recoding something, to recode (upgrade) your website instead of recode (degrade) prosilver.
