ok so i'm designing a template from scratch because i can't get used to this new vbulletin style and have a few questions.

QUESTION 1: the order is

header
headinclude
headinclude_bottom
forumhome/forumdisplay/showtrhead/whatever
footer

right? what actually defines this?
(is there a container template or such that calls for all this?)

QUESTION 2: so now if i want to create a completely new style how would i split up my 3 tables, for example lets say my code is:

Code:

<table id="MyOwnFixedContainer" width="1088" align="center" border="0">
<tr>
<td id="header">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id="forumbit or whatever">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id="footer">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
</table>

would this be split into:

HEADER TEMPLATE

Code:

<table width="1088" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td id="header">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
<tr><td id="forumbit or whatever">

FOOTER TEMPLATE

Code:

</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id="footer">&nbsp;</td>
</tr>
</table>

and well whatever i want to actually be between header and footer would just be in showthread/forumdisplay/memberinfo or whatever.

would this work?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
