Design Issue - Altering the info boxes - How?

Hi,

 

OSC is awesome but the one drawback with the way OSC is coded is that it allows very little scope for us designers who are'nt PHP gurus.

 

I need to be able to completely change the way the boxes look, such as categories, reviews etc. I'm finding it very difficult because of the way that the html is coded into the PHP. Using Dreamweaver as a visaul editor is useless when it comes to code such as this.

 

I know I'm asking a lot, its the nature of the beast that is PHP but I just wondered if anyone had mananged to somehow resort the PHP scripting to be a bit more user friendly for designers needing to customize?

 

These days there are a lot more PHP developers making template based scripts that offer a much easier visual representation for designers need to modify the look and feel

 

Any pointers would be appreciated :P

 

Cheers

There is a PHP class for drawing boxes in includes/classes/boxes.php.

 

The code is somewhat difficult, but the HTML stands out, it's easy to change. Test your mods one by one. If you get an error message, undo your last mod, and check you did not change the PHP.
