The readme does leave out the bit about the usergroups, but it is well covered here. The rest of the readme seems quite useful to me.

I have noticed on several examples here a problem that I have also. The left and right collapse buttons do not line up the same. The left collapse is above the column, but the right collapse is to the right of its column. I think that is a glitch in the template, but I could not find it. I liked the idea that one user suggested of using a separate button to condition the columns. He put the button in the user login bits at the top of the screen. A nice little set of buttons would have a screen icon with a column on each side that changed color and controlled its respective column display.

I would also love to see some nice full examples of how to generate a text stream from some of the local information. I tired using an iframe with the result that all my Ajax controls were disabled. I will look on vb.com to see if I can find the technique mentioned earlier for displaying the contents of a thread. It would be good to have a nice dictionary of the conditionals information useful for controlling block contents. That may require just reading on my parts.

In reading all these posts I have been surprised at how often examples have been posted with bad html. i.e. <tr><td>some stuff</tr></td> instead of correctly nesting the tags. The other common error was leaving off the closing tag on an <a href=.......>Link stuff </a>.

I am surprised that any browsers allow such code, but browser developers must try to be tolerant of errors.

If someone has a clue how to fix the collapse button positioning I would appreciate seeing that. One of my users is giving me fits over it. If anyone has a site where the buttons are used and display correctly, that would be useful too.

In any case, thanks Kerry Ann for this fine addition.:up:
