I downloaded a new style for my forum last night and unlike my previous styles it has the new PM info etc set off to the left and there is a search bar to the right. I have found that most the usual bits of code for navbar are now in the header template and to add to this confusion i have found myself unable to edit the links on my navbar. I want to remove the calendar, faq and memberlist links, and add my own links in to my arcade, casino and merchandise. Can anyone tell me what i need to be doing here? The usual
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="URL">LINKED TEXT</a></td>
doesnt work! I have pasted the template code in below:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<div align="center" class="outer_border">
<div align="center" class="inner_border">
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" class="header_bg">
<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[left]" valign="top" height="112"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]">
&nbsp;
<!-- banners -->

</td>
</tr>

The style was sent to me by a friend, i have no idea where it came from. I didnt know if anyone here could see what i needed to do.

It looks like they are using the class "nav_menu_control" instead of the class "vbmenu_control". So, have you tried <td class="nav_menu_control"><a href="URL">LINKED TEXT</a></td> ?
