Hi,

if you just have edited the CSS files then just use the new .tpl files from 2.5.

Problem is that the 2.5.1 template does not have a color.css

Here is the 2.5.1 New: http://seawardyachts.com/phpmyfaq
And the Old one: http://seawardyachts.com/phpmyfaqOLD/

I even tried your simple template on 2.5.1 and it did not work.

Hi,

just add your color.css into the index.tpl file like the style.css is added.

Thanks for the reply.

OK I added the following line to the index.tpl and it still is not the same (closer) - I tried to use the old style.css and that does not work either

Code: Select all

    <style type="text/css" media="screen">@import url(template/colors.css);</style>

Thanks, I did have to make a bunch of style.css changes --- only thing I can not figure out is how I can make the Header fill the page like I did in the old one -- any suggestions.

Hi,

just use a XHTML validator and fix the errors.
