I've been playing around with the Site Integration mod...very cool BTW
The only problem I have is that it doesn't do exactly what I need it to do.  The readme file specifically states: 'Please note that due to the way that the MOD is implemented, any table structures that are used in the 'area' files must be complete'
Based on the way my web site design is setup (see it here http://www.mathtv.com/blank.htm), I want to use a header and footer that splits in the middle of a table. Is there any way to do this? or should I just try to find a creative way to get it as close as possible? |

Where the MOD code was addded to inc_header.asp add the lines in red:
if strSiteIntegEnabled = "1" then
response.write "<table width=""100%"" border="""
if strSiteBorder = "1" then
response.write "1"
else
response.write "0"
end if
response.write """ cellspacing=""0"" cellpadding=""0"">" & vbNewLine
if strSiteHeader = "1" then
response.write " <tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td"
if strSiteLeft = "1" or strSiteRight = "1" then
if strSiteLeft = "1" and strSiteRight = "1" then
Response.write " colspan=""3"""
else
Response.write " colspan=""2"""
end if
end if
response.write ">"
%><!--#include file="inc_site_header.asp"--><%
response.write "</td>" & vbNewLine & _
" </tr>" & vbNewLine
end if
response.write "</table>" & vbNewLine & _
"<br />" & vbNewLine & _
"<table width=""100%"" border="""
if strSiteBorder = "1" then
response.write "1"
else
response.write "0"
end if
response.write """ cellspacing=""0"" cellpadding=""0"">"
response.write " <tr>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td valign=""top"">" & vbNewLine
if strSiteLeft = "1" then
%><!--#include file="inc_site_left.asp"--><%
response.write "</td>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td valign=""top"">" & vbNewLine
end if
end if
See if that works for the Header... |

Ohh...it's so close! Check it out: http://www.mathtv.com/forums/default.asp
I can't get the white table cell backgroud to show up. I have the bgcolor set in the inc_site_header.asp file. I'll try messing around with it some more. Any suggestions?
Also, I have the body tag in the inc_site_header.asp file to set the background image. Is this ok or not? I know it says in your readme file not to use html, head, and body tags in the header. |

Yes, you can't use HTML,HEAD and BODY tags becasue they already exist in the document (defined in inc_header.asp) so any subsequent repetitions will be ignored or cause errors.
It would help the debugging if you add these lines to your inc_site_header.asp file:
Put this line at the very top:
<!-- Header starts -->
and this line at the very bottom:
<!-- Header ends -->
This will show you which code was inserted by the inc_site_header.asp file when you view the HTML source. |

Good idea. I just added the comments to the header and footer files. How can I specify a background image on the page? Can it be set in the inc_header.asp file instead? |

| Oh, my bad. I guess I should have checked that before asking. |

Ok, I'm starting to get the hang of this (I think). I've been viewing the source in the browser everytime I make a change to make sure the HTML matches up. I had to strip out some of the code from the inc_header.asp file to get it to work. Is that ok?
I got the white table background to show up, but now the tables for the forum are acting weird. They got narrower and shifted to the left edge of the table defined in the inc_site_header.asp file http://www.mathtv.com/forums/default.asp
Any idea how I can fix this? |

I took out some code around line# 282 - mostly response.write's that defined some of the HTML table tags. They were reduntant with the HTML that is in my inc_site_header.asp file. I don't think that messed anything up because the combined HTML source in IE is matching up correctly as far as I can tell. Am I wrong? |
