    I would like to know if any of you can help me. I've made themes to customize the layout orkut. Only after it launched the new website layout codes change all the time. Thus the themes stop working because they depend on the names of certain large areas of the site. such as the header, navbar, etc ... now they are codes such as GGRPUC5CF3C or GGRPUC5CGYB

    You'd know any way around this without having to change all the codes, one by one, every time they change their orkut codes? would know if there any other way qeu operate independent of these new names that are given areas of the site? thank you for any help.
