Let's See What We Have Here

DeadDingo · September 27, 2006

Hi All

I have removed the "Let's See What We Have Here" by commenting it out on the main index page (as shown below)

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

(The one just above "// optional Product List Filter" at around line 232 on a vanilla install (line 237 on mine)

But now I chekc the diffenrent categories The center part (where the items are listed) is a lot lower than the left and right columns (the right column is a little lower than the left one aswell for some reason)

Where should I be looking to make it so that the left, right columns and the center section all allign evenly at the top?

I hope this makes sense, if not, please say and I will provide a screen grab.

Thanks in advance

try adding a & nbsp; (without the space between & and n) and see if it pads it out properly.

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

you don't really need the php bit..

by commenting out just the php, youre still leaving a big empty row in your code. to bump up the middle part of your pages you need to comment out or delete the whole row it was in.

Cheers

I managed to get the Left and Center Areas setup correctly now, but the right box is still lower. Here is my entire index.php page

maybe post your column right.php file?

DeadDingo · September 28, 2006

It is the 2nd piece of code above.

DeadDingo · September 28, 2006

Finally figured it out. It was the
