Ocinfo Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 I was asked a few weeks ago by a local store owner to build him a website. After doing some research I found Oscommerce and decided to try using it. This is what I have Lion's Clothing after about 2 weeks of messing around. The products haven't been added yet but there are a few fake ones to serve as examples. I wasn't attempting to make the store really fancy or anything I just wanted to give it a little bit of personality. The main picture of the store is just a substitute until I can actually take a picture of his store. Please let me know what you think and give me any suggestions that you have. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chance Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 This is what your site looks like in mozilla based browsers (Firefox in this example): My advice comes in two flavors- Pick the one that won't offend you.

Chance Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Its caused by your background image tag in the various CSS styles like infoBoxHeading in your stylesheet.css: You have: background: url('http://www.lionsclothing.com/chair.jpg'); color: #ffffff; The standards compliant way to do this would be: background: #ffffff url(/chair.jpg); Or: background-image: url(/chair.jpg); background-color: #ffffff; You just have a syntax issue on your stylesheet.css.

Ocinfo Posted July 7, 2004 Author Share Posted July 7, 2004 Thanks for letting me know about the CSS issue. I hadn't had the chance to test it with anything other than IE. I think I changed what you told me too but Mozilla doesn't seem to recognize the CSS at all. Any ideas? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chance Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Yeah bud, remove the '' around the url in the style. Do this: url(/chair.jpg) Not this: url('/chair.jpg') And there really is no point in putting the full URL, although I don't really think that matters. "/chair.jpg" is the same thing as "http://blahblah.com/chair.jpg". Putting a leading slash before any url means webserver document root.

Chance Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Also, the reason you are dropping some of your background colors in mozilla: You are missing some of your #'s before the hex color codes: .infoBox { background-color: FEFAE6; } .infoBoxContents { background-color: FEFAE6; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; } Should be "#FEFAE6" not "FEFAE6" My advice comes in two flavors- Pick the one that won't offend you.
