[Prosilver] Tableless Aero-like borders

Tutorial icon

  • Author : Ishimaru Chiaki
  • Type : Styles
  • Level : Newbie

The particularity of the Aero styles serie (available on phpbb3styles.net), is the border made with transparent PNGs that reminds Windows Vista's transparency effects and surrounds the forum list.  Because of this transparency, embedding (x)HTML elements isn't possible and we'll have to place them side-by-side.

So, I will show you how to do it, so you can get a result without overlapping, like in this example

Special thanks to Samurai and micka76 from phpBB-fr.com for the tests, error reports and fixes for IE6.
