There is a slight problem with the Black Widdow theme and I am wondering if someone could lead me in the right direction to correct it.  An example of that the problem is can be viewed at the demo website at the link below and by choosing BLACK WIDDOW theme.

http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/displayimage.php?album=random&cat=7&pos=-202

Notice that on the LEFT column it creates 5 grey bars and also LEFT aligns the footer.  This only occurs when viewing image in album when NOT logged in.  If you login there is NO problem with the theme what so ever.  This issue only occurs when anonymous viewing.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I did some more research and found that the issue occurs when u give guest group access to rate or to post comments.  Currently I have guest able to rate imgs, but not comment on them.  Once logged in as registered user group this issue goes away however.

The black widdow theme certainly is invalid in terms of table cell nesting: the author has added some design mistakes by implementing the vertical thumb strip improperly. Additionally, you have added to the confusion by improperly editing it: edit http://ramndump.connectingeasttexas.com/feedercams/themes/black_widdow/template.html with a plain text editor, find
Code:
<td align="center" <a href="./index.php"><img src="themes/black_widdow/images/header.gif"></a>
and replace with
Code:
<td align="center"><a href="./index.php"><img src="themes/black_widdow/images/header.gif"></a>
As suggested above, the entire theme is badly done and contains a lot of design flaws I can only recommend to use another theme. I'll remove the black widdow theme from our demo and download section.

The nesting both in template.html as well as theme.php is all wrong. There have been several implementation flaws in this theme, starting with the improper stacking of tiles to the nesting flaws and on to the invalid edits of the theme. I'm only half way through the theme (template.html and style.css and the images should be OK, theme.php acts up), but I have to leave now for a weekend trip. I'm attaching what I have so far.

V2 still seems to be broken as well.  I think picking a new theme is the only answer.  I found a similar theme and have been hacking away at it to try and make it to about the same.  I just about have it, but when you view an img the RIGHT hand and BOTTOM borders are off.  I have attached a link to better show my troubles.

Any ideas??? 

Thanks again for your help

Feel free to improve that theme.

I really like this theme, and would very much like to use it, but unfortunately don't have the skills to fix the problems. I see that you previously got half-way through fixing it  - do you have any plans to finish the fix? It would be very cool if you could find the time.

Or has anyone else out there finished the fix?

Many thanks in anticipation
Alan

No, I will no longer look into themes for cpg1.4.x, as all my efforts go into stuff related to cpg1.5.x

OK - I perfectly understand the priority. Maybe, if time permits at some future time - there will be a cpg1.5 version of Black Widdow...  ;-)

Thanks again for responding.

I have fixed the original black widow theme.  I have uploaded the fixed theme.php file.  Simply overwrite the original theme.php file with this one.
