theme causing strange login/logout problem

I am developing a new PHPTemplate theme & it mostly works the way that I want, but it seems to be causing a strange problem when I try to log in or out. I am fairly sure it is related to the theme because the problem only happens when my new theme is used.

I am using clean URLs. The problem is exactly the same with IE and Firefox.

Using box_grey as the default theme, if I go to www.mysite.com/user I get a login screen. After entering a valid username and password, I end up on the www.mysite.com/user/2 page. If I click on a link to www.mysite.com/logout, I get logged out and end up back on the front page. Perfect.

However, with my custom theme as the default (and with *no* other changes), after entering the same username and password at www.mysite.com/user, I get stuck on a blank page with the address www.mysite.com/user/login?destination=user. If I then place the cursor at the end of the URL in the address box and press "return", I get redirected to the correct www.mysite.com/user/2 page. If I click on the www.mysite.com/logout link, I get stuck on a blank page again. If I then type www.mysite.com in the address bar, I can see that I have been logged out. There are no errors in the Drupal log.

So, it seems like *something* in my theme is causing page redirects to not work correctly. Any idea what it could be? I have no idea & the only thing that I can think of is to start with a totally clean template & paste in all the new code section by section, retesting every time. That could take days!

box_grey looks strange in internet explorer, but fine in Firefox

Please have a look at this page:

In IE the boxes overlap the header. But in Firefox everything looks fine.

This is the css file:

I've looked thru it, but I cannot find wat's wrong. Can you?

"Home" breadcrumb in PHPTemplate themes?

Been modifying a few PHPTemplate themes for my site, and I noticed that on the home page of my Drupal test site, a "home" breadcrumb is always displayed. Anybody else have this problem and/or a solution?

List bullet aligns with bottom of text

Theme: Civicspace. Today, I noticed that when I have an html list in my nodes (with ul and li) IE 6 is not displaying the bullets. I guess, it gets confused by some earlier css definitions. To solve the problem, I added the following to my custom.css:

More Unique Themes . . .

I just went to a Web page because of a referrer link from Drupal Talk. When I got there, I instantly recognized the Kubrick theme and thought, "Ah, another Drupal site." Then I scrolled down to the bottom of the page and saw this text: "Careers is proudly powered by WordPress". Curses! Foiled again!
