i'm making a website and i want to run a forum. however i'd like the forum to match the basic template of the rest of my site so i want to insert the forum into a table within my site. is there anyway to do this (besides using Iframes)? i'm using the forums from phorum.org and i'm just trying to insert it into a table. will this work? thanks!

edit: i found out how. you just edit the header and footer files found in the "include" folder. simple enough. didn't see it before
 
sure its possible...your just going to have to go into the code for each and every page the forum uses though and edit it to match your "template"...you might be able to get away with something like dreamweaver templates to apply it to many pages at once but chances are its gunna looked messed up a little so each page is going to use its own tweaking. So long as your not editing any of the main code though it should be fine...just remeber to keep backups 😉
 
It's completely dependent on how phorum determines its "look 'n feel." If they allow you to make "themes" then it should be pretty easy. If not... then it won't.
