When I view my forums in Firefox, the Recent Posts menu wraps itself into multiple lines before I can click on a link. I have looked for a way to apply no-wrap to the Recent Posts menu and found that adding it the win1 class fixes that issue. However, everything that uses the win1 class now has the no-wrap attribute. I need to only apply no-wrap to the Recent Posts menu. Which perl script do I need to edit in order to apply the correct style at page rendering?

okay i changed the code in boardindex.pl from:
Code
<td style="padding: 7px"><img src="$images/crumbs.png" class="centerimg" alt="" /> $dirlist</td>
     <td><div class="win2" style="float: right; padding: 7px"><a href="$surl\lv-search/p-topten/">$boardindex[25]</a>$newpostslv</div></td>


to:

Code
<td style="padding: 7px"><img src="$images/crumbs.png" class="centerimg" alt="" /> $dirlist</td>
     <td class="right" style="padding: 7px;"><a href="$surl\lv-search/p-topten/">$boardindex[25]</a>$newpostslv</td>


and that stops the links jumping and wrapping - on my forum anyway!

Ok, after playing around with boardindex.pl and template.css, I have found a solution that will work for any theme.
Add this to your template.css file:
Code
.postsmenu {
	white-space: nowrap;
	background : #FFF;
}

Then edit this line in your boardindex.pl file:
Code
<td><div class="win2" style="float: right; padding: 7px;"><a

to this:
Code
<td><div class="postsmenu" style="float: right; padding: 7px;"><a

I simply added a new class called postsmenu that has the same attributes as the win2 class, but it also has the "white-space: no wrap" attribute in it. I hope that this helps. I will see if I can write a mod for this so that people don't have to manually edit their boardindex.pl.
