Good luck with your site. The design is good, but the font size is very very small.

Ok, thanks. Is there any software/script, which could extract that information from the logs?

Cena, it is not paranoia, just read some Adsense threads at WebmasterWorld. If the clickthrough will suspiciously rise, you can be banned without warning. marzar00, if you want to really help this site and do not cause potential problems, the way to go is this:
1) promote WordPress itself
2) do not write “incentives of any kind for users to click on ads”. This is prohibited by the Google TOS.
I would really recommend to delete this whole thread.

Oh wait then…I just had a look at 5-6 layouts and all of them were the same big fixed width, so I supposed that all of them are this way. Apparently, wrong use of mathematical induction from my part, sorry.

It’s propably a bug – I have found several permalinks related bugs in CSV.

Thanks for the tip. Some of their examples look fine, and one is actually very close to what I want. Unfortunatelly, I’m afraid there is one annoynig issue with the div’s – if you will increase the font above certain value, somethings will get overlapped… Moreover, when I looked to some of their code, it looks quite “hackish” to me – it was more complicated that my table example. I think, that for now I will live with the simple table layout, and when the CSS and browser guys will do their homework and fix their problems, then I will switch to full CSS. Thanks for help for now.

Hi allusion!
I was finally able to install CSV version! Yes, the menu resizes with the text, but that is what I do NOT want. I want the constant ratio between column width and menu width, so only the text size will increase.

Thanks TG, I will look at your css. BTW, don’t you know about xhtml/css validator, which is a standalone windows application I can install localy on my pc, instead of going to w3c.org?

I’m sorry, the previous post is mine, I just forgot to log in.

Hi david, thank you! The troubles started when I wanted to have the banner with 100% width (the default layout has the banner at the left column only). The same with footer.
Basically, I had two goals in mind:
1) The layout will be as follows:
Banner – 100% width
——————————
Column with articles | Menu panel
——————————
Header – 100% width
2) The layout will be “infinitely” resizable – no matter how big fonts user wants, no part of the text will get overlapped or hidden.
I played with various positioning of the menu panel for a few hours, but I just could meet both requirements at the same time. Then I tried to make it with table, and got it working almost instantly. Anyway, I’m looking for ideas how to “do it right”.
Cheers,
Soso.

Sushubh, thanks for the hint, but I specified the user in the wp-config.php. And the user actually exist, I created it manualy through the CPanel…

I’m encountering the same problem, and my wp-config.php is set corretly. Why I proceed to the next screen by clicking: “Let’s go”, I’m getting “DB Error, could not list tables MySQL Error: Access denied for user: ‘@localhost’ to database ‘db_wordpress'”. Can you help me please? I don’t understand what user: ‘@localhost’ mean. My user I’m connecting with has another name. On my local machine, everything works perfect, but when I uploaded it to my webhost, I’m not able to access the database. Any hints appreciated.
Thank you,
Soso

Hi david,
I tried the “$justArticle” approach and it works, but the problem is that the <?php directive cannot be nested, so I rather end up with a lot of <?php if ($justArticle …, blocks of code, or I need to “echo” the html code. So I’m now trying to have two different templates, like index.php and article.php. It seems to work for me.
Yes, you are right, CSS is a pain, and I’m already tempted to create the homepage layout by using table! I already tried the CSS Layout Generator, which seems to produce correct CSS code for layout, but there are so many nested <div>’s to make it workable, so the resulting code is more complicated than using table…
Anyway, thanks for your help. I’ll post the result of my work, when it will be done. (If that’s not agains the forum policy, of course).

Thank you davidchait, I’ll try the php code+css approach. Regarding the display:none hack, I’m not sure if that is only “maybe 10 lines max of added CSS stylings.” The non-displayed code will still remain in the html source, so it will be downloaded during browsing -> a waste of bandwidth. So I don’t quite like that solution.
BTW: Your CSS list of categories is not displayed correctly in Opera browser (latest version). Good design, anyway!
