[TYPO3] vbulletin & typo3 integration

[Herbert Roider]

I think this is a problem. A Solution is to move the menu to the top,
because 
you can easy modify the template for the header. I see that most people do 
so. A example is this website:
http://www.typo3forum.net/forum/vbulletin-typo3/5603-umfrage-extension-fuer-forenanbindung-6.html
but this website don't use hr_vbulletin_connect.
But I am not  familiar in customizing the VBulletin board. I havn't done
this. 
Only dig in the php-code ;-)

regards
Herbert
