different problems with oscommerce

[sidefx]

hello forum users.

 

Probably I'm not the first asking those questions, but I couldn't find any returns via the search engine (or I used the wrong words to search for)

 

I would like to know how to solve some problems.

 

1: I need to add a space between the price and the currency, so that it appears like: 150.10 CHF, now it displays the price like 150.10CHF. Where do I have to adjust that?

 

2: I would like to set a wider border on the left, where you can choose product category. How can I do that?

 

3: I would like to edit the text that is displayed in information box. Like Shipping, Privacy notice etc. etc. How do I do this best. I opened the php file in dreamweaver and edited it there. But it's somehow strange to do it this way. Could I aswell open it in a text editor ?

 

Thx and excuse me if this has been asked alot or is covered in any faq. I couldn't find it

1> Try changing the following line if catalog/includes/classes/currencies.php

 

      } else {

        $format_string = $this->currencies[$currency_type]['symbol_left'] . number_format(tep_round($number, $this->currencies[$currency_type]['decimal_places']), $this->currencies[$currency_type]['decimal_places'], $this->currencies[$currency_type]['decimal_point'], $this->currencies[$currency_type]['thousands_point']) . $this->currencies[$currency_type]['symbol_right'];

      }

 

to

 

      } else {

        $format_string = $this->currencies[$currency_type]['symbol_left'] . number_format(tep_round($number, $this->currencies[$currency_type]['decimal_places']), $this->currencies[$currency_type]['decimal_places'], $this->currencies[$currency_type]['decimal_point'], $this->currencies[$currency_type]['thousands_point']) . ' ' . $this->currencies[$currency_type]['symbol_right'];

      }

 

 

2> In catalog/includes/application_top.php, look for the line:

 

// customization for the design layout

  define('BOX_WIDTH', 125); // how wide the boxes should be in pixels (default: 125)

 

 

3> Have a look at:

thank you seank123, your help is appreciated. I'll try to change that and give feedback.

hello I'm back.

 

1)ok number 2 I could solve.

 

but with 1) I still have my problems. I changed this currency.php according to your suggestion. I tried to search for the exact code you gave me so it's identical. I'm pretty sure this didn't work. Maybe I did something wrong in setting the default currency?

 

Basically I have to insert a . ' ' so it displays a blank space.

 

Sorry I come up with so easy problems it's obvious as you explained :)

 

Maybe wanna have a look at the page I'm doing it's at www.megalgas.ch / the shop - german index. (I'll add english later)

 

this is the content of my currencies.php (maybe contains already errors?
