Can Someone Please Help Me?

[SheerPassions]

Hey thanks for taking the time to read my thread. I have a question regarding the "Fixed Width Site with CSS" contribution. Now it says it should work in both Firefox and IE right? BUT - for me it's working only in Firefox, and in IE it is all aligned to the left. I don't know how to fix this. I put in the code exactly as stated in the contribution, so I dont know - maybe I missed something? If anyone can help me with this it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Also, I want to know how to get rid of those really annoying icons (IE. http://www.sheerpassions.com/Line/catalog/index.php - on the top right - the little woman at the cash) - this icon has been driving me insane and I've just about run in head in the ground trying to find "where it's living".

 

And last but not least I wanted to know if anyone knows how I can change - on my payment page during checkout I use 2checkout for my credit card transactions, now on the payment page it gives the payment options "Check / Money Order - PayPal - 2Checkout" - how can I change that to read "Check / Money Order - PayPal - Credit Card"?

 

If anyone can help me with any of these topics it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Sincerely,

Melissa

For the second one, you have two options. You can upload little 1 pixel transparent pictures in place of all the table_heading pictures (there's at least one contribution for doing that that I'm aware of), or you can go in and delete the relevant code by hand. It appears on basically all the pages, and is

<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'table_background_*name varies by page*.gif', HEADING_TITLE_1, HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>

I started with the first option, but eventually just went in and deleted them all because it drove me nuts.

 

For the first one, I suggest finding the contribution thread, if no one here knows the answer. For the third one, I don't know.

Not fmiliar with the contribution you spoke of, but you can fix the wdth of either right or left column in the appropriate include files.....in your case, /includes/application_top.php , will change the left column.

 

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

 

Add another define: define('BOX_WIDTH_LEFT', 230); //the 230 should be the new size you want...in pixels

 

NOW, in your index.php, about line 50 or so,and between the <!--body //-- > & <!-- left_navigation //--> tags, change the following code: <td width="<?php echo BOX_WIDTH;?>".....to read

<td width="<?php echo BOX_WIDTH_LEFT;?>......"

 

ALL FILES NEED TO BE UPDATED LIKE THIS, I don't know of a quick fix and tend to shy away from them.

 

 

The second issue has to changed on every page as well.

 

I always comment out the areas in questin BEFROE committing to complete deletion. Again you will have to check ALL files and do the same if necessary....

 

 

About line 297 or so, comment out the code, mine is as follows:

 

<!-- BEGIN HIDING THIS SECTION OF CODE

 

<td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>

<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'table_background_default.gif', HEADING_TITLE, HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>

</tr>

</table></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr>

<td class="main"><?php echo tep_customer_greeting(); ?></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td class="main"><?php echo TEXT_MAIN; ?></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>

</tr>

<tr>

 

END HIDING THIS SECTION OF CODE -->

 

The third issue.....haven't made it that far, yet.
