Theme development

I'm using a custom xtemplate theme on my blog. For some reason, the specfications I set in xtemplate config -- logo, links, so forth -- aren't displaying on my front page. All the others seem to work well. Any guidance?

Hello

I want to implement a dirty trick for top DHTML navigation menu, which can be modified by uploading some js/html code. I'm not a programmer so I don't feel like I can wite a module for this menu manipulation which would be the right way of course.

So can I load to theme (for output to html) some code from external file? I use modified Chameleon theme.

Thanks

I'm not promising anything really exciting (I'm not a web designer by trade), but I've put together over ten xtemplate skins for Drupal 4.4 into one package. You can learn more, see and download them on my weblog (thumbnails lead to larger png's).

Hello

I'm trying to find out where is the hook: menus (menus.module and navigation) is giving strange responce with a lot of space before each item in Interlased theme (like there are a left padding 50px for each item), say:

----menu
--------submenu
------------subsubmenu

instead of

-menu
--submenu
---subsubmenu

where is the point? It eats my content! I've tried to find an answer in css but zero. Maybe I missed something?

I'm not sure thi is the right place to post this.
I am very new to Drupal and indeed PHP... I love the Interlaced themeas well as the Chameleon theme but find it hard to customize them by adding my logo.

I have tried the instructions given at http://drupal.org/node/view/6629#comment-6458 but had no joy... Would any of you gurus please care to help?

Thanks in advance.

I am reposting this under Theme development as it may be more appropriate here.

I followed Steven's "Quick Hack" suggestion (http://drupal.org/node/view/6385#9600) for suppressing "Submitted by" on static pages by making the following modifications:
Open up xtemplate.theme and find the following lines:

"submitted" => t("Submitted by %a on %b.", 
                      array("%a" => format_name($node), 

"%b" => format_date($node->created))),

and replace by

"submitted" => ($node->type != 'page' ? t("Submitted by %a on %b.", 
                      array("%a" => format_name($node), 
                            "%b" => format_date($node->created))) : ''),

This works great for HTML formatted static pages, but it does not work with PHP formatted pages. I suspect that this might be caused by PHP pages not being rendered as node type = 'page' for some reason. I have spent hours searching the entire site for possible explanations and solutions, but aside from finding a handful of posts identifying the same problem, I have not found anything that is actionable. So, I am hoping that this forum topic will attract attention and suggestions from one of the many Drupal wizards in the community. I am using Drupal CVS. Any suggestions are appreciated. Donovan.
