Title: CSS & HTML in classic & sample theme
Post by: PLG on November 11, 2007, 05:02:21 pm
My apologies if there is another place for theme bugs.

This is not a bug per say. But to clear up a confusion. I newly installed CPG and I was making a custom theme. I spent 20 minutes figuring out where some whitespace was coming from although I am quite familiar with both CSS & HTML.

The conclusion was that in order to remove the white space I had to include some of the functions found in the sample.php into the theme and then disable the cellspacing tag that was placed there with value ="1".

In an attempt to be clear. For the future theme users of CPG, I think it would be a good idea to remove the cellspacing and cellpadding tags from the starttable() function and replace this with CSS tags of border-spacing and margins.
Therefore when someone is making a new theme they need not include those functions just to disable those attributes, but he/she can simply edit the CSS to change the whole look and feel.

Agreed. Moving thread accordingly.
