Hi FF,

wouldn't it be a good idea to put the html-code you use to create the topbar into 'overall_header.tpl'? When doing this, users don't need to load index.php, because overall_header.tpl is called every time a page is loaded.

Vic

Now the header should be visible to everybody, because I placed it into the 'overall_header.tpl' Vic mentioned. Thanks... Smile

Works great Smile but "policy" comes to second line on 800x600. You may consider reducing the size/spacing a liitle bit.

Perhaps a javascript/phpscript to determine what the screenheight of the user is and then adjust the font size of the hyperlinks would help. I'll have a look at it...

I had considered this method in the first place, I would have put it
the template file in the first place but I chose to use a frame for
a number of reasons. First, a frame stays at the top and you can
click on a link without having to lose your place to scroll up to the
top/bottom of the page. Second, I think that frame flows better with
the forum. Also, for my third reason Google/other search engines
do not index the forum without the frame for keywords. Take a
look at http://www.google.com/search?q=vdsworld+forum and you'll
see that it was indexed the day I put the frame up, indicating that
it would be best to use a frame.

I think it actually looked better with a frame though.

Only downside I think is it consumes a little visible browser area at all times.
Just my personal opinion. Many may disagree.

A frame is better to let the links stay on top, but when you open a link at the forum in a new window, the frame disapears. I tried to add a frame by using a <div> layer, but I couldn't get it to work. Sad

About the keywords, we can add them to the 'overall_header.tpl' file?

If you want to open a new window use target="_blank".

Also using overall_header.tpl would not be the ideal choice because
the meta keywords and descriptions tags would not be in the HEAD
section of the document, therefore it would be incorrect syntax.

I mean that if you right click a link, and then select 'Open in a new window', the framepage will be gone. That's why I added it to the overall_header.tpl file. Smile
