Even though only about 20% of our users use Netscape, I've noticed my boards look pretty crappy with them with the black bars on the right! But it looks perfect with Explorer!

What do I have to do to fix this? I've tried everything but I know I must be missing something pretty simple!

Could you post URL of your site so I can take a look at the source code?

<TD colspan=6> ?

Ok, i took the source, and did a mass edit /replace. changed all <TD colspan=6> to <TD colspan=4> (looks like you took out moderators colum, and thread colum (sp??)). I think you just need to edit the templates to fix it.

That's exactly what I did (took out the moderator and threads columns) -- I'll go search for that in the templates!

Thanks!

Mine looks lousy on Netscape too. The category links are black.

I fixed the colspan in the logginusers template, and that seemed to make it look better!

Thanks for the tip :)

I think the colspan you need to change is in the forumhome template, and one other (i think...)

Template search is part of 2.0
