  I'm currently using the Rhuk2 theme from rhuk.net (their current default theme) on my site, and for the Administration Message as well as the Center Blocks (not the news), there is no center block title for the block or any graphical enhancements for this center block like there is for the news blocks or the side blocks. I'm trying to get the center block to look like the side blocks as far as the graphics are concerned, but I cannot find anywhere in the theme files from rhuk where the center block is coded.
  
  When I asked Rhuk about it, he stated that the center block cannot be graphically coded like the side blocks can. I don't feel this is an accurate answer, why? because if I look at a few of the core themes from postnuke, they do show up like the side blocks, graphically and with center block title.
  
  Anyone know where in the theme I should be looking to correct this problem? Thanks!

  Anvil,
  
  I've just downloaded and taken a look at this theme. To modify the look of the blocks you can alter the themesidebox function. This begins at line 240 of theme.php and looks as follows :-
  

  Code

  /************************************************************/
  /* Function themesidebox()                                  */
  /************************************************************/
  
  function themesidebox($block) {
      global $block_side, $thename;
     
      if (empty($block['position'])) {
          $block['position'] = "a";
      }
      if ($block['position'] == 'l' || $block['position'] == 'r') {
          echo "<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"150\" style=\"border: 1px solid " . getColor("border") . ";\">\n"
          ."<tr><td bgcolor=\"" . getColor("hilitehead") . "\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid " . getColor("border") . ";\"><img src=\"themes/Rhuknet2/images/dots.gif\" height=\"5\" width=\"13\"></td></tr>\n"
          ."<tr><td bgcolor=\"" . getColor("sectionhead") . "\" align=\"center\" height=\"20\" style=\"font : bold 13px;
          color : " . getColor("font") . ";\">\n"
          ."<b>$block[title]</b>\n"
          ."</td></tr>\n"
          ."<tr><td bgcolor=\"" . getColor("border") . "\"><img src=\"themes/Rhuknet2/images/pixel.gif\" width=\"100%\" height=\"1\"></td></tr>\n"
          ."<tr>\n"
          ."<td bgcolor=\"" . getColor("sectionbody") . "\" style=\"padding:4px\">$block[content]</td>\n"
          ."</tr>\n"
          ."</table>\n"
          ."<br>\n\n\n";
      }
      if ($block['position'] == 'c') {
          echo "<font>$block[content]</font>";
      }
  }

  
  
  The key section for the centre block is
  
  

  Code

  if ($block['position'] == 'c') {
          echo "<font>$block[content]</font>";
      }

  
  
  You alter the HTML layout of the centre block here. Look at how the left and right sideboxes are done for an example.
