IE6/7 Problems with Template [SOLVED]
 

sorry, i should have note, I am having some issues with IE6/7 with my template, and i don't have access to a windows computer as of right now. I will try to resolve the issues later tonight.

currently, firefox (mac/linux), safari (mac) and opera seem to work fine.

Your template seems very clean and simple, and I love the mod_rewrite work. I'd highly recommend you post your template/adodn/hacks to the Extend section. That way It will get much more exposure.

Just go to: http://www.pixelpost.org/extend/admin/ and login with your forum username/password, and you will be able to upload the files.

thanks. and yea, as soon as i work out the IE6/7 issues I will definitely post it there. I wanted to give a once-around here in the forums before posting it on the main site :)

How were you able to get the links on the archive page to output in your format without modifying any Pixelpost code?

That's a good point, I should have made it clearer. paged_archive.php is a addon, I modified it so the thumbnails link to the mod_rewrite URLs, but the categories and dates on the left, still use the old URLs. I left all base pixelpost 1.7.1 code alone.

This is the kind of thing I wanted to work out before posting to the main site, so thanks for pointing this out.

I am going to try and clean up the "paged_archive" addon and bundle this all together with a readme (in one ZIP file)... and between sed, grep, and/or awk, I should be able to cleanup ALL the URLs in paged_archive.php rather quickly. I post back when I made the changes. and thanks again. i've been in-and-out of this template so much lately, I've forgotten things I've done (and haven't done)..

I didn't realise the treeswing.net template was available? I think you've done a nice job but it's had some trouble loading the image fully.

The treeswing template isn't *available* per se. I just copied the general layout using the same javascript for the comment hiding and the same/similar fonts.

at this point its heavily modified and my template is entirely XHTML 1.1 valid. but it was my starting point and i really admire Sean's work, that is why he is credited in my about page.

Hopefully Sean McKendall won't mind. :)

Yea
 

Yea sean already visited and commented on a few of my photos, so I think it's ok. Imitation is the most sincere form flattery. :)
