Theme development

Hi, I'm looking for information in order to fix a website I maintain...which is
http://www.artknowledgenews.com
The main problem is a light blue color appearing at the right side of the header...
And a gray-coloured box with two dots that looks like if drupal wants to show an error message but it does not.
Please go the URL and if anyone can help me finding an answer to my header and gray box problem.
Please advise
Regards,

Leon.

Hi-

I'm new to drupal development, but have been hacking together a way to dynamically generate my own menus for a site based on the taxononmy. I'm not sure if this is the best way to do this. In fact, I'm really sure that it isn't. The number of database calls that this does is out of control. I'd love it if some one/people could help me think through writing some generic functions to develop this kind of functionality.

Basically the site I have has three levels of hierarchy. I built a taxonomy that matches this site map and then applied this taxonomy to all my nodes. This is key for understanding the code that I'm using.

The menus themselves need to reflect the context of the node- so for example if you're on the third tier, I want to light up the correct menu item on the three levels of navigation. So for example, if we have:

about->board->boardmember

if we're on the boardmember page we want to light up board and about as well. The first tier might be comprised of: about, programs, news, each having their own set of children and subsequent children. I also have the code setup to not show the third tier of navigation until the user is on the second tier.

Here's how I did it. I've tried to comment the code in ways that make sense. If you have questions, I'll try to answer, but at least I know that my code does work. I'm using it in page.tpl.php file.

OK kids, I am sure that one of you has the answer to this one.

I've modified the Bluemarine theme to match our organization's branding theme, changed some layout items, new title banner, etc. Browsing in Firefox and Safari it all looks good to me. Browsing in IE gives me wacked out nonsense.

The only issue that I cannot solve has to do with HTML tables displaying contained text in a freakin tiny size. There are no other font attributes assigned to the text, when it is in the table it is tiny when it is outside the table it is normal.

I have been experimenting with a theme including a layout for forum posts (and comments) which looks more like a 'traditional' web forum. Here is an example thread: http://www.webg8.com/h/node/40.

Feel free to play in the test forum on that site: I would be grateful for any testing/thoughts/feedback.

I found this theme on the main site and only want to change the color and add some graphics to it. http://drupal.org/project/greenmarinee I like the layout and hope what I am asking assistance on can be done easily. TY in advance you can contact me privately at commander @ mongounegen .com (remove spaces before sending) if you would like to help.

Folks,

I am trying to make some minor tweaks to the Chameleon theme which is, as you no doubt know, entirely PHP based. What I am trying to achieve is to have the standard node display look like:

By author on date
Filed under terms

instead of both statements on one line. It should be easy for someone who understands PHP. Any ideas of which areas of the theme file that should be modified and which modifications should be made?

Thanks
