I've been at this for over a week, been all over and can't fathom why others aren't having this problem. Some info & facts:
1) Using PN 0.7.6.4
2) Xanthia version 2.1
3) Postwrap 2.5
4) pnRender 1.0

As you can see, I'm veryu up to date, and perhaps that's my problem (I've no previous versions to compare with - new contract).

aquaria, an XHTML based theme blessed by PNuke, runs great except for rendering a completely blank center block (where the postwrapped stuff should be). Apparently Postwrap needs some tables to anchor onto, or somethign like that. I haven't ruled out pnRender, but only because I haven't dug into that module.
PiterPanV2, an HTML based theme blessed by PNuke as a core theme, works great with PostWrapped content.

Any work around for this problem? Actually, since I've found virtually NO evidence that anybody has a problem like this, does anybody have this problem? (I can hear my empty echo already)

Did you tried to assign other a modified template to the PostWrap module?
i mean, create a template with some tricks extracted if the PiterPanV2 layout, that let your postwrap module to work correctly, and insert this template in your theme, and assign it to PostWrap in Xanthia Admin Panel.

Did you tried it?

Yes I did. Keep in mind that this works the same on any browser. I took the (tabled) home.htm working elements of PiterPanV2/modules/home.htm and replaced the non-working (XHTML)elements in aquarius/modules/home.htm with them. Here are the before & after areas:
ORIGINAL START: (uh-oh - I don't see my pasted info - NOT GOOD - do U see it??)

ORIGINAL END:

MODIFIED START:


MODIFIED END:

Then I noticed that the aquarius theme doesn't even have home.htm configured as a module template (URL:http://localhost/pnuke/index.php?module=Xanthia&type=admin&func=editTemplates&skin=aquaria). Matter of fact, it has absolutely NO template modules defined at all. Is that a default thing? Who knows - the Xanthia documentation doesn't describe what's connected with other things, what depends on something else and what's defaulted. It's all a jumlble of old & new forum postings, as if you can clearly find the answer to your probblem. Anyways, after the add, NOTHING's ADDED! It's as if I didn't do the add at all (WTF??).
This is VERY different from the working PiterPanV2 theme, that happens to have lots of templates defined.

I noticed that the page rendering for PiterPanV2 places the PostWrap'd content where I'm expecting, while the aquarius one has me stymied as to what the hell center block 'thingy' it's calling. Check out the page source here:


I was expecting to see a "" from ccblock.htm, so I've no idea what I need to do to get the postwrap'd stuff visible with these kinds of templates. What I can tell you, is the page isn't being rendered correctly, but shows ZERO errors.

I've spent WAY, WAY too much time on something I had chosen to be a easy presentation cobbler that is a nightmare. Any ideas?

Did ANYTHING come through? I see just a BLANK textarea for my reply. So, as painful as it is for everybody, I'm going to split up post #2 into however many replies it takes to get ALL the information visible...
