I need a little assistance with migrating my site from frames to the header/footer integrated table.

From reading this forum, I realize that I need to add the following to the style:

HEADER
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" id="SideBars"><tr><td width="15%"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="95%" align="center" id="Left Sidebar"><tr><td width="100%">&nbsp</td></tr></table></td><td width="70%">

FOOTER
</td> <td width="50%" id="SideBar"> </td> </tr></table>

I see how that lets me run ubb in a table, and I see where to put in the text, but is there any easy way to integrate HTML files as the table source? I already have my content for the top and sidebar worked out in framed HTML, but how do I put that into the table and still keep the source outside of UBB. I need to be able to edit the HTML outside of the style section of the admin page.

Sorry if this is a newbie question.

you won't be able to.

So I have to add all of my content via the admin page?

you are correct sir! heyo!

or you can do a file include in Perl through the template files

Charles,

I'm not too familiar with Perl includes. Is it like an HTML include? Can you point me to a good link?

Thanks.

something like that should work:
include that where the header/footer is normally called. probably somewhere in public_common.pl
