Templates with Tables
« on: March 27, 2002, 12:16:00 AM »		 Reply with quote
Does anyone know where I can get a template with frames, kind of like this site?  Does such a template exist?

Anyone every make one of these and know the steps?  I have made pages with frames before, but I have no idea where to start with a frames/tables and PHP.

Right, it uses Tables...

I was just wondering if there is a template or something out there all set up.  I know in SP1, some people where able to put the login, a poll, etc., into the tables along the edges.

Well, I guess it would take tables to put a bunch of things on the borders like this site or some of the SP1 sites...  

Do you know of anything that is available that is kinda ready, just add some of your own tables?

Just make a backup of your template first.

I give up...  **SLAMS HEAD AGAINST WALL**

I tabled this project until the 1.3 release (I needed more time for games...hehe)  But I have been screwing around with the template file and I can not do this without screwing it up or making it look like crap (damn notepad and MS paint)  ;)

Can someone who needs a FUN project make me a template with tables on the left, etc... something that looks nice?  *hangs head in shame*

I can make it worth your while!   ;D

its easy to do a html template, if you want I can do it it for you but I would need to know what colour scheme you want if indeed you do want a coloured template.

if you wish to do it your self, what you need to do is take your page and then allocate a main table to one site, place the <yabb menu> <yabb imname> <yabb time> in the top row (this is for the home,help etc buttons) then below that in the next row you need to put <yabb main> into the html.

These must be entered in raw html, you can use FP2k or dreamweaver to do the html, not a problem but you need to have the tags.

Very basic, here's what you do.
On a backup of your template file leave everything alone above the <body> tag. (css stuff, title, etc) Below that delete everything and paste in the code below. Then delete everything in parens. Where it says 'this is your side menu' put in the code for your side menu. (duh).

That should give you the basic setup you want. You can play around all you want. Move the yabb tags, put css into the tables, etc.

(Page top stuff)
<table>
 <tr>
  <td>
   <yabb boardname> (Yabb Boardname)
   <BR>
   <yabb title> (Yabb Title)
   </td><td>
   <yabb uname> <yabb im> (Yabb User name + Instant messages)
   <br>
   <yabb time> (Yabb Time)
   <BR>
  </td>
 </tr>
</table>

(Main body stuff)
<table width="100%">
 <tr>
  <td width="20%">
    this is your side menu.
  </td>
  <td width="80%">
   <yabb menu> (Yabb Menu)<br>
   <yabb main> (Yabb Forum)
  </td>
 </tr>
</table>

(the end)
<center>
<yabb copyright> (Yabb copyright)
</center>


btw,  a nice template from Boardmod that uses a side menu is Easy Blue. I think this link should get you there:
