A little bug on forum's first page.... any help?
 

Hello.
I have installed 3 template hacks at my board (no php hack).

1) Remove moderators column
2) Space between Categories
3) Images at categories

everything seems fine except for a long time now.

These last days, though, I noticed a small bug at the "Currently Active Users" table:

I have attached a screenshot... You van see that there is a black vertical area at that table - on the right side.... :(

could someone help find the bug? I mean first of all, in which template should I start looking?

If I knew the template - in which there is the mistake - maybe I could copy it here and we could find the problem.

thanx in advance

Just to add that this black area is visible ONLY when users are logged out - and not every time...

most of the times it is there.... (Im using IE6)

I have also noticed that with Opera Browser i have never seen this black area !

I'm guessing it's another cell with another border? NO, that can't be it. It seems like the borders shows up twice =/. Could you post here what you have in your forumhome_loggedinusers template?

not sure but its probably the

forumhome_loggedinusers template, right?

here its the original :

________________________
<tr id="cat">
<td bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}" colspan="6"><a href="online.php?s=$session[sessionhash]"><normalfont color="{categoryfontcolor}"><b>Currently Active Users</b></normalfont></a><normalfont color="{categoryfontcolor}"><b>: $totalonline</b></normalfont></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" colspan="6"><smallfont>
<nobr>There are currently $numberregistered members and $numberguest guests on the boards.</nobr> |
<nobr>Most users ever online was $recordusers on $recorddate at $recordtime.</nobr><br>
$activeusers</smallfont></td>
</tr>
______________________________________________

for removing the moderators column I had to do this change:

Template: forumhome_loggedinusers

Change:

colspan="6"
to
colspan="5"

and

colspan="6"
to
colspan="5"

____________-

for putting images at categories I did this:

• Find the following code:
code:

<tr id="cat">
<td bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}" colspan="6">

and replace it with the following code:
code:

<tr id="cat">
<td background="{imagesfolder}/frontpage/cat_bg_01.gif" bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}" colspan="6">
____________________

so the template right now looks like that :

<tr id="cat">
<td background="{imagesfolder}/frontpage/cat_bg_01.gif" bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}" colspan="5"><a href="online.php?s=$session[sessionhash]"><normalfont color="{categoryfontcolor}"><b>Currently Active Users</b></normalfont></a><normalfont color="{categoryfontcolor}"><b>: $totalonline</b></normalfont></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}" colspan="5"><smallfont>
<nobr>There are currently $numberregistered members and $numberguest guests on the boards.</nobr> |
<nobr>Most users ever online was $recordusers on $recorddate at $recordtime.</nobr><br>
$activeusers</smallfont></td>
</tr>
