The only reason I suggest this is because it reloads completely each time I go to the forums as the top seems to stay the same. If I'm incorrect lock 'er up.
P.S. nice use of comments, I hate them personally.
I think it's quite apparent that they used PHP, mixed with some CSS and HTML as well as a bit of Java. As for the comments, it's a Canadian thing...
Well, I see the php and skidoo_too is CSS so I assume it's the stylesheet, JavaScript isn't Java per se. But what I'm suggesting is create a different .php file with all of the side menu bar info and just using it in each page instead of having the actual code on each page.
He probably does... The way PHP works though is that it just spits out HTML to the browser. So if I include some pages, the "<?php #include("blah.php") ?>" isn't going to show up when you view page source. But when you go to a new page it's still going to reload all the things, unless you're using AJAX or something.
That's not entirely true, if I were to make a "functions.php" which would do, let's say, clean up anything entered in the login field. i.e. extra space and malicious code, truncation and what not. The code for the would not be shown, it would simply show the include functions.php statement. It wouldn't show the code used to do that. But if he did, then he can lock the thread or we can let it die. It's just a suggestion.
