Re: How do i use the same style sheet?

This line references the Style sheet for your Home:
html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
You show two stylesheets for your forum:
html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://computer.forums.central-forums.net/Themes/babylon/style.css?fin11" />
  2. 	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://computer.forums.central-forums.net/Themes/default/print.css?fin11" media="print" />
The second one looks like a print stylesheet, so just change the relevant entries in the first one, or substitute the home style sheet.

Re: How do i use the same style sheet?

The easiest way might be to copy style.css to your forum folder and change this line:
html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://computer.forums.central-forums.net/Themes/babylon/style.css?fin11" />
To:
html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" />
Your other problem is a bad link:
This:
a href="www.central-forums.net"
Should be:
a href="http://www.central-forums.net/forums/#"
Note that your other menu links need to be changed also.
You can read more about how links are formed here:

I think I have all that right, but let me know if anything gets broken.

Re: How do i use the same style sheet?

On this page:
http://www.computer.forums.central-forums.net/
In Dreamweaver I believe this can be seen in Code View
I'm not a php expert, but every page will need to reflect this change if you want them all to use this stylesheet.
