you should be able to edit the forum template instead...

[PHP] About "wrapping" a forum into your own design.

2006-03-28 Thread twistednetadmin
I am making a page with css for styling and php for browsing and dynamic
content.
I use a simple switch statement to get the main content of each page into
the same  tag like this:




However. I am not that competent in PHP to make my own forum, so I use a
premade forum. Invision Power Board actually.

What I want to do is to get all the links I press in the forum (after
loading "forum/index.php" into the div-tag with id=main) to show up in the
same area. Not sure if this is a php question actually, but...

What happens now is that when I press the link "Forum" in my main navigation
on my site, the index.php of course loads into the div-tag with id=main. BUT
when I press a topic or something within this page (index.php), it opens up
in a new page. I know why, but I wonder if there is a way to get the rest of
the links in the forum to stay within my div-tag other than tracking down
all the variables and such in the forumscripts and alter them? (That's a
hell of alot java and php to work through)

Any help is appreciated.
