CSS - Sub-Forum-List in Columns · **Released**: 06-28-2005

For vb3.5.x --> vb3.6.x

Tested and working on Firefox, Safari and IE6.

What this does:
It converts the sub-forum-list into a unordered list, then by using CSS arranges the sub-forums into columns.

The columns are liquid - number of columns depends on browser-window-width or page width. The column width is set in the CSS.

Note that you need to enable sub-forums in your ACP.

3 CSS class definition added.
8 template edits.

See the zip for further instructions / full details.

Enjoy!

Update: v2.

Class attribute moved from <li> to <ul> element, and you now get full control through the stylesheet.
A clear:both style added below the list to constrict the floats, so that you can put stuff beneath the list.

Update:

Works for vb3.6.x with no changes.
Added .txt to textfile

Been looking for this since I saw it on another forum..
This is a great mod...
Thank you very much

[EDITED]
This is a good hack, but when I use it, the adsense link ads on my page messed up. So, uninstalls..

You have to edit the way the subforum link gets created and then I put the description in the "title" html tag.

This is such an old hack but such a useful one, too. Many thanks for this again.

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