building a forum, trying to get it to say the topic after the forum name
e.g Corsa Sport » Message Board » Off Day » Geek Day » php question
at the moment all i have is forum index > forum name
and i want the topic name to go after the forum name rather than on its own above.
i would of thought it would be:
<table width="100%" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" border="0">
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="middle" width="100%"><span class="nav"> <a href="{U_INDEX}" class="nav">{L_INDEX}</a>
-> <a href="{U_VIEW_FORUM}" class="nav">{FORUM_NAME}</a></span></td> <td align="left" valign="middle" colspan="2"><a class="maintitle" href="{U_VIEW_TOPIC}">{TOPIC_TITLE}</a><br />
- > <td align="left" valign="bottom" nowrap="nowrap"><span class="nav"><a href="{U_POST_NEW_TOPIC}"><img src="{POST_IMG}" border="0" alt="{L_POST_NEW_TOPIC}" align="middle" /></a> <a href="{U_POST_REPLY_TOPIC}"><img src="{REPLY_IMG}" border="0" alt="{L_POST_REPLY_TOPIC}" align="middle" /></a></span></td>
<td align="left" valign="middle" colspan="2"><a class="maintitle" href="{U_VIEW_TOPIC}">{TOPIC_TITLE}</a><br />
<span class="gensmall"><b>{PAGINATION}</b><br />
</span></td>
</tr>
but it just brings it the furthest right on the page by the new topic and post reply buttons, anyone see where i've gone wrong?

Change
<table width="100%" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" border="0">
To
<table width="100%" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" border="2">
You'll get a better idea of how the tables are layed out.
Also ideally you should reformat all of that code so you can see the cell layout in the code.

I'm guessing you want
<a href="{U_INDEX}" class="nav">{L_INDEX}</a> -> <a href="{U_VIEW_FORUM}" class="nav">{FORUM_NAME}</a>
Changed to
<a href="{U_INDEX}" class="nav">{L_INDEX}</a> -> <a href="{U_VIEW_FORUM}" class="nav">{FORUM_NAME}</a> -> <a href="{U_VIEW_TOPIC}" class="nav">{TOPIC_TITLE}</a>

Might have to test that first though, I'm not sure what each of those things is. Basically if you want it in the same line then you want it inside that first <span> tag, and just play about with the {} bits to place them in there.
<a href="{U_VIEW_TOPIC}" class="nav">{TOPIC_TITLE}</a>
If you want it to be a link or drop the HTML bit if you just want plain text -
{TOPIC_TITLE}

Not sure, not familiar with exactly how phpBB deals with templates.

Tom, you should be able to just make a copy of the CSS file, and work on the colours from there, then link to it on the conf file (its been a while since i edited it)
Altho any inline css you have added to the headers and template includes will still be there of course
