SMF changing mambo template style?
« on: June 01, 2005, 09:14:43 AM »
Hi,

I'm in the works of making my own little community site. It's almost finnished but i got one problem that i can't figure out how to fix.
When you enter the forum it changes the color of the menu headers in my left menu. All the links etc works like they should, just the headers.

If youw ant to take a look, check here:

I recomend using Firefox, the design still got some issues to be resolved with IE:

Best Regards

Ok, solved why it changed color on the text, mistype in the css.

It still changes the font just a tad in the menu header tough. It's stil the same font but it seams like it gets "wider".

yes...  this is a known issue...   and has been discussed with nearly every new bridge user...
Change the line in SMF's indix.template.php from xhtml to html.

Hi, it doesn't change the font problem.
Can't i change my template to be xhtml instead? Since that text style looks better imo?.

Don't change to xhtml, you'll get huge fonts in Internet Explorer. Your problem is caused by your forum's style.css.

This part

Code: [Select]
/* By default (td, body..) use Tahoma in black. */
body, td
{
   color: #000000;
   font-size: small;
   font-family: Tahoma, arial, helvetica, serif;
}

is probably overruling your Mambo's stylesheet. Try removing it.
Please do not PM or mail me for support. Thank you.
