it was an unmodified version that i loaded, but i used my old header.html file because i had altered it some with links....but when the load didnt fix the problem i swapped out my old header file that i had saved for a fresh one...and still no help...would it be a problem that i didn't just start fresh altogether??

one other question...i followed the link about how to remove the boxes on the left when viewing forums...i got it to work no problem...but i was wondering if there was a way to alter the forums theme so it would be at 100% but leave the index theme at 80%...

thanks again for the help
