(I didn't know where to put this, so if there's a place just move it for me :? )

Next time the site is updated, would it be posssible to keep the side menu up when visiting the forums? Sometimes clicking on "Home" freezes my computer and I miss a song I requested :( . I don't know if anyone else has this problem

That's strange.

I wish I could easilly do that.

There's a few portal systems out there. It might just come down to replacing this whole website with one of those. Everything outside of the forums I coded myself. I don't think PHPBB has a mod where you can "wrap" a website around it.

I don't know anything about designing websites, so I didn't know how easy or difficult it would be. It was just an idea. I solved my problem by opening two internet windows though (one for forums and another for everything else)

Instead of opening multiple windows, perhaps you should look into a browser that allows tabbed browsing. (I use Firefox). I usually first open the now playing page in a tab, and the forums in another tab.

Sub just add a Home link that will take users to the /index.php that should be easy

Sub, you could setup phpbb to run in an IFRAME or AJAX. This script could do it: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicinde ... cludes.htm

If he want to recode the whole site he could create a left.php and use a

Code: Select all

<?
require("/left.php");
?>
on any page that needs the left side

Whoa! I don't know what any of the above means, but they all seem like a lot of trouble :shock:
I'm fine using two browsers...really

AJAX might act funny. Frames could work but then I'd have to pull the header out of one of the layouts.

There's probably a mod that does what we need.
