<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

well i have no idea whats going on. really need some help on this. i have done the tutorial just as it had stated and the test.php well its in the forum directory.. but its still not doing anything! im really lost but need this for my site.

where do i put the second part of the tut if it doesnt explain really where to put it.. header, footer, includes. where?

Okay, I think I understand what the problem is. It doesn't explain where to put it, because your supposed to create a new template with the template code provided. Your page is coming up blank because it's trying to fetch a template that you havn't created yet.

Now create the template, called TEST with the following content:

HTML Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]
<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">
<head>
<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>
$headinclude
</head>
<body>
$header
 
$navbar
 
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tr>
    <td class="tcat">Title</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td class="alt1">Text</td>
</tr>
</table>
 
$footer
</body>
</html>
