I want to use the right column hack with this thread, thats easy.

I need the html for the right column so it matches the rest of the skin, "Rounded corners, images, etc".

Can someone post the HTML for a right column that looks like the original skin, and pulls the images from the correct directory?

i can't give you the exact code off the top of my head, but i did manage to reuse the rounded corners for my test site.

look at the replacement variables at the end of your style variables in the admin-

<ca-hdr> and </ca-hdr> - this was a bit confusing to me at first because the table structure is slightly different. he's using a table all by itself for the rounded corner area, you can't plug it directly in. i was expecting to have an exact mapping from the rounded corner tables to the standard table, and that's not how it works. the rounded corner code has an extra table it in...

basically, the structure i was seeing is this -

<ca-hdr>
<td> content area for the sidebar</td>
</ca-hdr>

when i was comparing templates with the default for the last upgrade, i was able to see the differences in the code and get the effect for sidebars. (currently workign on another sidebar problem with aligning in the showpost pages, but that's another issue.)

maybe this will help get you on the right track anyway.
