Theme development

Hello all,

I couldn't find the answers to these questions via searching the forums and handbooks. My apologies if they have been covered before.

1). In the gunmetal theme, there is no content block as default. The default displays the last 10 posts or whatever it is set at. This content is displaying fine. However, submission forms appear down quite a ways in the content block area, below the lowest block on the right sidebar. Is this just a bug in the theme itself? If it is caused by 800x600 resolution, how does one eliminate this extra spacing?

Hi,

I trying to create a more traditional navigation for a "standard' web site. By that I mean I need to have the main navigation along the top consisting of say "About Us | Services | Our Team" and when someone clicks on "About Us" a submenu appears down the left hand column whose menu items only relate to "About Us". Then the same for "Services", I'm sure you get the picture.

I want to be able to detect which page and section visitors are looking at so I can update the styling on the navigation accordingly i.e. change the background colour of the menu items they've selected both on the main and sub-nav e.g.

=======================================
About Us | Services | Our Team | Etc | Etc
=======================================
--------------------------------------
PHP Development
Web Design
Another Service
One more service
--------------------------------------

I'm using a 'Page' type for all of these pages and I've started using the Primary Links for the main nav which works fine but I'm at a loss as to how to link it with the sub navigation. I think what I need to do is create a 'section' or 'category' so I can see from the URL where they are, something like http://mysite/aboutus/history or http://mysite/services/webdesign whereas at the moment all I get is a node/34 or node/56 which doesn't relate to anything in terms of where I am on the site.

I am having trouble with this: http://drupal.org/node/90277 I get this warning: warning: implode() [function.implode]: Argument to implode must be an array. in C:\Program Files\xampp\htdocs\trafiq2\themes\trafiq_pipes\page.tpl.php on line 44. Obviously meaning that $nodes isn't anything at all.
