Well, just as a side note, that's not a cosmetic error. Andrew originally planned to have it that way. In any case, I can tell you how to remove it.
In FORUMDISPLAY find:
Code:
<td class="thead"> </td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
Replace that with:
Code:
<td colspan="2" class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
In FORUMHOME find:
Code:
<td class="thead"> </td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
Replace that with:
Code:
<td colspan="2" class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
I believe that should fix what you're talking about.
