formatting on product page is messed up

[moby74]

I am very new to oscommerce and php. Have been having fun learning but a lot of this is over my head so would greatly appreciate some assistance to learn what i'm doing wrong.

 

I have modified my header and the overal site to 770 pixels. The main category pages have changed and display correctly when I go to each one. However all the other pages(shipping and returns, Privacy notice, and contacts) do not show up correctly. Basically the columns on the right get pushed to the bottom and left.

 

I am trying to fix the problem by working with my products page because all of them do not show up. They are the product_info.php pages. Basically clicking on a product causes the page to display incorrectly. So i'm wondering how to go about changing this so that I can learn how to fix all of the pages that are not displaying correctly.

 

The only thing that I could see looking at the code is that it appears that the page loads stuff from other files and this might be my problem. I have just noticed that the source on the page when using my browser is different than the actual file product_info.php. More specifically in the head part of the code.

 

Any assistance would be great. The site is www.sunsethilljewelry.com/catalog

 

Thank you so much

Thanks for the information. It offers a different solution.

 

I guess my main question is do I lose everything that I have typed into my catalog as far as descriptions and products or is there a way to go back and use the contribution yet save the stuff that I have entered. Would really hate to have to go back and put all of that information in.

 

If so is there anyone else out there with any ideas. It seems to be a consistent problem throughout my page with the exception of the main pages.

 

Thanks gscreations for your input. Greatly appreciate it.

Success! I was able to get those pages fixed. For some reason when i went in and reedited the code for each page like the product_info.php the fix changed it. I had found the code below on a different post.

 

<table border="0" width="770" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center">

 

When I erased the old one and pasted this in then the page came up correctly. They appeared to be the exact same but its late so maybe i was missing a subtle error.

 

 

Thanks so much gscreations for the advice. It definitely would have been a lot easier to use one of the contributions instead of having to fix all my stuff. I am still curious if you can add contributions without messing up what you have already inputed. I'm sure there are some posts that I can read and I'm guessing that maybe there is other stuff with contributions that would make life easier.
