Hello! c:
I need lots of help, because I've only had three weeks of coding experience.
Ok, I created a roleplaying forum, but the side tables are set for only one color. If you see here, this is where I got the forum layout: CLICK HERE. Yeah, side tables can only be one color. But I want multiple skins, but I also want the side tables to match the color scheme of each skin.
I did try this coding: CLICK HERE. But there was a major issue, and I couldn't access my headers and footers. So I just went back and deleted that coding. But I still want to have different side tables for different skins.
Oh and I also need a code to have a different head banner for each skin. Because the default one if just always there. A friend gave me a code to change the banner for each skin, but I didn't actually try it quite yet. Because it was supposed to be after I had different side tables for each skin.
I need help! cx

I need help! cx That particular code you linked would have trouble with codes such as side tables or border-around-forum that started an element in the header and closes it in the footer in order to wrap the forum. The successor to that code is generally believed to be the " Hack Manager" which doesn't have that problem. The hack manager however adds a layer of simple encoding to your codes making it harder for someone to debug if there's a problem but for someone with little or no coding knowledge it is a perfect (easy) tool to serve up skin based codes. |

Alright. I have the Hack Manager all installed and ready. I added the hack coding stuff from before. I just need to test them out and see how they work.
EDIT:
Everything was working smoothly! Until I put a code in one of the new skin's headers/footers. At first it said, "hit the back button and try again." And saying it wasn't working and such. So I went back and put the code in again, and it worked this time. Then when I went to the homepage, there was another whole set of side tables and the colors didn't change.

What "hack coding stuff from before" are you referring to?
I don't see the code installed at the site you linked, if you removed it then there really is no point trying to debug what you described since I would need to see the code installed to see what hacks you added to it. One common cause of the headers/footers save attempt failing is when someone tries to save a code that contains an image but the src of the image is left blank (example:<img src="" border="0" />) or if using style sheets the spot where an url to an image should be is left blank (example: background-image: url() ).
But as I said, if you removed the evidence then there is no way to track what went wrong.

Ok, well I got it to work! :D I'm so happy. If it wasn't for you I'd be so lost! c:
Now I just need to change the head logo for each skin, which I think I have a code for it. But I'll probably come here if it doesn't work for me. Thank you!

another cause is if they have mulTiple tabs open to the same site.
