CSS Question

[Guest]

Well I was trying to edit the look of the catalog and was wondering the difference between

tr. and td.

 

for exampl:

tr.headerNavigation

td.headerNavigation

 

and so on...why are there two options? Does td relate to the look of the catalog itself and tr is for the administration?

 

Anyone knows the answer?

tr relates to a table row

td relates to a table column

Do a google search for "html table tutorial" and you'll find a wealth of information about dealing with tables. The basics:

 

<table> creates a table - much like a table in Word if that's what you're used to.

<tr> creates a row in the table you just created.

<td> creates a cell in that row.

</td> ends the cell

</tr> ends the row

</table> ends the table.

 

All of those tags can have modifiers - you can set the height and width, assign it a class, lots of good stuff. You can also have tables within tables (aka nested tables).

One last thing...

 

In the stylesheet.css file of oscommerce...does the TR.headerNavigation and TD.headerNaviagtion refer to what you two are talking about?

 

Forgive me for not knowing the answer to what might be a silly mundane question.

 

Thanks again,

Macie

Say Rankin, Do you have any suggestions for my recent posts? Removing the "New Products" table is driving me CRAZY.

<?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?>

 

Search for that line (around 300) in the index.php file and comment/delete it out

 

<!--?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?-->

Hi,

 

I don't think your question _really_ got answered. I'm no CSS expert, but the entries you are referring to are classes and used like this:

 

<tr class="headerNavigation">
   <td class="headerNavigation">

 

and refer to thes entries in the stylesheet

 

TR.headerNavigation {
 background: #bbc3d3;
}

TD.headerNavigation {
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 10px;
 background: #bbc3d3;
 color: #ffffff;
 font-weight : bold;
}

 

Hope that helps,

 

Peter

Search for that line (around 300) in the index.php file and comment/delete it out

<[color=red]!--[/color]?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?[color=red]--[/color]>

It would be better just to comment out the include:

<?php //include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?>

The HTML comment still outputs into the HTML.

 

Hth,
