This is my Screenshot, with "relative sizes":

Mozilla with Default Text Configuration

When I use my mothers notebook (Internet Explorer 6.x, default settings) it`s the same!

The C in CSS stands for "Cascading"... so when such "oddities" occur, it's actually the author of the stylesheet not being aware how relative font-sizes filter down through the cascade.

I have updated this style for phpBB-2.0.20. I also removed some uneeded code from a phpbb mod that was installed.

So here it is:

The design of templates has become so much easier with the release of phpBB3 (Beta). The ability to subdivide complex files into different elements not only assist building but also makes porting easier…

It is entirely possible to divide each html file into basic elements and include different elements to create excellent looking pages…

Here is a one possible representation of a portal_body (similar to index_body)

Code: Select all

<!-- IDTAG index_body starts -->
<!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html -->

<div align="center">
	<table  width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
		<tr>
			<!-- INCLUDE blocks_all.html -->
			<!-- INCLUDE block_index_top.html -->
			<!-- INCLUDE block_announcements.html -->
			<!-- INCLUDE main_forums.html -->
			<!-- INCLUDE block_time_zone.html -->
			<!-- INCLUDE block_php_support_sites.html -->

			<!-- IF S_DISPLAY_ONLINE_LIST -->
				<!-- INCLUDE block_whos_on_line.html -->
			<!-- ENDIF -->

			<!-- IF S_DISPLAY_BIRTHDAY_LIST -->
				<!-- INCLUDE block_birthday.html -->
			<!-- ENDIF -->
			<!-- INCLUDE statistics.html -->

			<!-- IF not S_USER_LOGGED_IN -->
				<!-- INCLUDE block_log_in_out.html -->
			<!-- ENDIF -->

			<!-- INCLUDE block_images_explain.html -->
		</tr>
	</table>
<br />
<!-- INCLUDE overall_footer.html -->
<!-- IDTAG index_body ends -->
This code is an example of a standard index(portal) used in the Kiss Portal

Resulting in the images attached…

This fixes the wierd topic title sizes at least in Firefox, and also makes them not seem so incredibly large in the Private Message menu.
