left navagation bar

how to put a left navagation bar in vB ?

vboard.co.uk,

that means I don't need to do anything on the header template ?

<table align="left" width=150>
should do it.

Or

(in the header)
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td><!-- Nav Bar --></td>
<td>

(in the footer)
</td>
</tr>
</table>

In my understanding,

to put a nav bar on the left, there are two methods mentioned by two persons in this thread

1st method mentioned by vboard.co.uk
modify the forumhome template to make a two table
one on the left of the nav bar and one on the right for the forum

2nd method mentioned by Ed Sullivan
edit header template and footer template

<table align="left" width=150>
should do it.

Or

(in the header)
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td><!-- Nav Bar --></td>
<td>

(in the footer)
</td>
</tr>
</table>


Please correct me if I am wrong

Actually, I mentioned 2 methods - a left aligned table or one large table.

Mine requires no header template.

Just Forumhome template.
I will try it later on today and see what I can do with it.

okay mate I tried it with sucess.
Surf to: http://www.vboard.co.uk/test/index.php
for my demo of what I was talking about.

Only the front has that lay out so far.

If you want a hand with this let me know.
It realy is not that hard.

In the header you would have the start of the table and the nav bar, then you have the open second column.
<table> (start of table)
<tr>
<td width=120> (nav bar)
Links
and
other
nav
bar
stuff
</td> (end nav bar)
<td> (open second column)

The is all you would have in your header and the forums yould be here

</td> (end second column)
</tr>
</table>

that would be in the footer

look at my source if you want

vboard.co.uk

does the links at nav bar is hard code or dynamic ?

They are normal links I wrote in.

I will change that so it calls on a new template I am creating for the nav bar so I can edit the template when I need to and update it very easy.

Easy stuff!

Damn I could have suggested what UKliam said!
oh well use his!

Its easy to mantain then editing all displaying templates like Forumhome, Forumdisplay .etc

Me/ Brain dead!
