Post Black Pearl Center Forum 
 
I am using the black pearl theme on my phpbb3 forum. I am having lots of trouble trying to center the forum. I have gone through a lot of topics on here and google but can't seem to find a solution that will work.

I am using width 960px but the forum is not perfectly centered.

Any help in centering the forum would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Posse, welcome to IcyPhoenix,

Can you provide a link so we can take a look if we can see why this is happening?
Black Pearl is usually centered by default.

Looks to me like the opening body tag is missing Spydie, but I'm not even sure I'm looking at the actual forum yet  

I've tried viewing in 3 browsers and it all looks centered to me (chrome, IE9 and FF nightly)

Heheheheh, rest assured ... I'm no member there  
Just did a little tracing

PS don't forget ...I still think you have a missing opening body tag in your overall header

Not very well-versed with that Joshua, what do you mean by the missing body tag?

Appreciate the help.

P.S. What did you trace?

Your overall_header.html now contains something like this:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
</head>



<a name="top"></a>


and it should be:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
</head>

<body class="ltr">

<a name="top"></a>



 
Off Topic
:
By using your private profile info
(which is why I did not post the full url to your board, that would be upto you )

You also need to move this above the </head> tag, because that's probably why the <body> tag was removed to make it work?

Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]

Well if that is the case at the portal Mort (and it IS .. probably in portal_body.html) , I think it would be better to move that into the stylesheet?

Well in that case I'll stop trying to take this step by step.

You have a few more errors:

- the "buy admin" link in menu_block.html needs work (you can't use "&" like that in that file)
- in overall_header.html you should replace:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
alt='site_logo'/></a>

with:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
alt="site_logo" /></a>

or if you don't want the alt there:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
alt="" /></a>


- in overall_footer.html you should also replace the "&" character between "Dave Polaris & Welby" (not so important but still a small error   )

I'm not going to get into this about ' and " and the space in front of the />  

But for html & is either "and" or &amp; and preferably &amp; should be used for the short version when you use &.
