Best way?

Can anyone think of a way to stick a forum page within a site, without using frames? Could an iFrame work somehow? The forum resides on the same server. I'm just trying to integrate a typical PHPBB into a site and have it look as seamless as possible.

Thanks,

Dave

if it's a PHPBB forum then you could just amend the template to include whatever you want. that would be the best way to do it.
are you hosting the forum yourself?

Yes, I'm hosting it. I haven't checked into the levels of customization they offer on that, so I guess I should check it out more.

have a delve into this folder...

[your phpbb folder]/styles/prosilver/template/

and take a look at the following files to start you off...

overall_header.html
overall_footer.html

each style has got its own folder. so if you're using a style other than prosilver then you'll have to look in that folder instead.
