besides this database issue (also I'd like to inform you that I've 
changed the password to 'test' to be able to access it...) I want to ask 
a thing:

since Sinorca webtheme requires quite a lot of code repetition (like any 
other theme which is XHTML compliant) I've found successful two 
different types of solutions:

1) use PHP include() statement in all files to include the repeated 
stuff. Advantages: easy ! Disavantages: requires work from the server on 
each page request...

2) use an XSLT file which takes the text from rough XML files and then 
produces the well-formatted XHTML files; this could be set up to be done 
in real-time on each page request (but this would be useless since we 
are already using PHP technology for other things and this would be like 
solution #1 just using a different - perhaps slower - approach!) or to 
be done offline using an XSLT processor.
This requires to have
- iconv.dll
- libxml2.dll
- libxslt.dll
- zlib1.dll
- libexslt.dll
- xsltproc.exe
installed on the PC in order to have XSLTPROC working....
the advantage of doing the XHTML generation offline is that the server 
then needs only to send the page to the user and thus is faster.
However since we will be using PHP for other things (like mySQL access) 
the pages still would require webserver processing and thus I suggest to 
use approach #1.
