 * I did a similar thing not too long ago.
 * It is near impossible to actually get phpbb to run _in_ WordPress, but it is 
   easy to fake it.
 * All you have to do, is create a new theme for phpbb that looks exactly like your
   WP theme.
 * My example:
 * WordPress: [http://www.templeofdagon.com/](http://www.templeofdagon.com/)
 * phpBB: [http://www.templeofdagon.com/forum/](http://www.templeofdagon.com/forum/)

 * Im wanting to achieve the below:
 * <img src=”[http://www.vini.co.uk/uploads/forumpress.jpg”&gt](http://www.vini.co.uk/uploads/forumpress.jpg”&gt);
 * [php]<?php
    /* Template Name: Forum */ ?>
 * <?php get_header(); ?>
    <div id=”main”>
 * <<<< INSERT FORUM INCLUDE?? CODE?? WHAT?? >>>>
 *  </div>
    <?php get_footer(); ?> <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
 * </body>
    </html> [/php]
 * the above, is a blank template for my wordpress theme, is there anything i could
   include in there to get the forum looking like the picture?
 * an iframe does the job i want, but iframes are rubbish. i dont want the scroll
   bars and hassle that they bring.
 * ive tried an include but all the links and css goes to pot for the forum.
 * any ideas on a way to do this? prefiously people have mentioned <div> but this
   means nothing to me.
 * the forum & wp are on the same box/space, (forum = /forum &&& wp = / (root))
 * could someone show me an example, or guide me through this? surely its not that
   difficuly?
