Theme development

Hi all

I need to create a site with a specific look and feel, and for that I need to create a theme for this site. However, I havn't understod anything from the guide that is over here (in the handbooks section).

How do I split date information when dispalying node or comment from PHPTemplate print $date

For example, when I code print $date in node.tpl.php or comment.tpl.php, it will return 27 March 2006 (the date when the node is posted)

Nah... how to split that information to something like this:

I'm in the process of modifying the contributed theme gespaa and one of the things I want to do is center the primary links at the top of the page. I have tried everything I know to try and I can't get them to move. They are currently aligned left and I can't find where they are being commanded to align left. the test site is at http://ross.crickster.com

There should be some mention of this since I'm sure a lot of people will want normal paragraph spacing.

The Argeebee theme removes all the space between your paragraphs. The offending code is in the layout.css file:

.node .links,
.node .content P {
  margin:0;
}

Here is how it makes your paragraphs look:

I recently moved my old blog to Drupal and over the weekend I added some of my old reviews (almost) directly from another drupal site.

I am having problems with the imported comments, in that the nesting isn't working and they are appearing in the wrong order.

Hi -

I am curious about the best way to implement a tab / sub-tab navigation similar to this in the body area:
http://drupal.org/project/Modules/4.7

Couple things I need, that this does:
1) The parent tab (ie modules), has 5 unique children - change the parent tab and related sub-tab children display.
2) The page content shown on a child page (ie 4.7.x) only displays content that is relevant to the parent/child combination.

Are you achieving this with just the taxonomy module?
