I found on members.asp that when the "strDefaultFontColor" and the "strForumCellColor" are set to different colors that some columns are one color and some are the other I took this exagerated screen shot of my local copy of the snitz exchange forum.

After a more thourough investigation this is what I discovered: There are several places in the forum where the "strDefaultFontColor" is used in table cells that are "strForumCellColor" where I will assume that "strForumFontColor" is supposed to be used.
This creates a problem, not just on members.asp, but also when trying to use a high contrast color sceme that has a dark background with light tables or vice versa.
Areas of the forum afected > - Statistics on default.asp
- copyright and title in inc_footer.asp
- admin_home.asp
- admin_config_order.asp
- admin_moderators.asp
- admin_forums.asp
- members.asp (title and country columns only)
- policy.asp
- subscription_list.asp
- faq.asp (table of contents bullets only)
The fix, if this was not already fixed or was intentional, is just to change the needed instances of "strDefaultFontColor" to "strForumCellColor"

good catch. I'm taking care of this now in v3.4. I'm also addressing the In Forum Link Color as well, since it's not currently implemented completely (if at all). |

While you're at it. In post.asp when you reply and the previous replies are listed at the bottom of the page, you've got strForumFirstCellColor in the cell where the original person's name appears but then you have strForumCellColor for the cell where the original post appears. The replies use the correct alternating colors, but in my color scheme, that first row just looked wierd. I change the message cell to use strForumFirstCellColor.

I need to find out of the following is cross browser compatible (is it compatible with all browsers...)
<a href=""www.yahoo.com""><font color=""" & strForumLinkColor & """>Yahoo.com</font></a>
I'm pretty sure it is, just want to make sure. |

thanks. Though CSS would be the ideal way to deal with it. Links in posts are still not addressed. |

Putting a span around the message to cover those links isn't hard.
Put this around the message displays in topic.asp and post.asp <span class=""spnMessageText"">text</span>
then in the link style definitions in inc_top.asp add
".spnMessageText a:link {color:" & strForumLinkColor & ";text-decoration:" & strLinkTextDecoration & ">}" & VBNewLine & _
