MyBB Community Forums

hi all

problem A)
i try to install the forum in http://www.tm-creative.org (forum is installed in http://www.tm-creative.org/forum, using frames at both sides) but no matter what i TRY to insert into the CSS, the horizontal scrollbars under IE stay there :ß

i tried into css/ html attributes
1) overflow-y: scroll;
2) overflow-x: hidden; and overflow-y: auto;

problem B)
when trying to insert these attributes by editing the theme in the admin cp, i can write these attributes into the "Extra CSS Attributes" field and they're saved, but they will NOT appear in the css file after i call the website and look at the saved css file...

problem C)
general board config / CSS Medium : i chose to store the CSS "Stored in the file system (In the 'css' folder)" ... but that doesn't change anything, all data is still stored in the database...

i'm getting crazy

little update:
it seems to help to remove the "http://www.w3c.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd" out of the doctype line in the html header part, at least the scrollbar is gone. the other problems still exist :ß

For problem C, make sure the css folder is writable by the server (i.e. CHMOD 777). The theme data is always stored in the database regardless of that setting, however if the setting is enabled, a cached version of the theme is stored in the css folder.

the folders are writeable (otherwise i couldn't have activated the option to save them as files in the board config)....

my one big problem is this:

when entering values for the "Extra CSS Attributes", they're saved into the the [database / mybb_themes/../css bits], but they're not taken to the [database / mybb_themes/../css]
so of course they won't be used when calling the forum website :ß
