Inger I am now an official customer of hostgator.com, I hosted a phpbb message board there, but I was wondering, how do I install a favicon if the message board is on the main page? I haven't even opened it in ftp yet, just using script installation for phpbb..

Yeah, finding the right file to set the link can be a problem with these message boards. I have no such message boards to play with at the time being. and it's very long since I had one of those, but I think it has to go on one of the templates. But to make it easy for yourself, why not create an 'opening page' with a bit of info to the forum users perhaps, and insert the favicon link on that.

Oic.. hey Inger, can you check out torchlight.coffeecup.com please? It's a preview of how I want my site to be, but where the lettering is I wanted to include a scroll graphic with -z index just to cover up the backround a little bit, so I went with the coding

.index
backround: url(../images/scroll) and it isn't showing up anywhere.. can you help please? Thanks Inger :)

This appears to be controlling your marquee.
element.style {
background-color: #414141;
color: red;
width: 100%;
}

Looks to be inline.;)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Remove the space after 'url', like this:

.index {
background: url(../images/scroll.png);
margin:20px auto 10px;
width: 900px;
height:600px;
z-index: 100;

}

I got it, I made another post in the HTML forum, I can't get the scroll to stay centered for websites like we did on the judd site. I couldn't find the code that centered it in css though, so i'm searching for a way to keep that scroll behind the lettering centered.

Hmm, wouldn't have that 'lost code' problem if you had Prism's handy little 'Snippet' program :D
Ask nice and you might get a download link... :cool:

Prism has a snippet program? I'd love to check it out if so, send it on over to scripeon@gmail.com
