    I have been converting a PostNuke Theme to break away from the table tags and use
    tags instead. A sample theme complete with
    tags and CSS would help me a great deal. Let me know if you have any tips for this type of conversion. My general questions deal with what functions remain the same or can be eliminated. Does the theme file still need the OpenTable() and Close Table() functions? How does one incorporate or change the code for the sideblock modules?

    I'm in the process of learning to do this myself (e.g. using the CSS box model rather than HTML tables for layout) so I can't help you (yet). I would certainly suggest that a good knowledge of both HTML and CSS is a requirement for doing this 'right'. :)

    As far as the Open/CloseTable functions go, I've asked this before and the answer seems to be that they are legacy functions included to accomodate certain older modules. Which ones, I couldn't tell you. As far as the $bgcolors go, I've heard that these are legacy variables as well, and really could (and should) be defined as part of the CSS.

    Hope this helps (a little). :)
