vasttech Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 You need to take out the tags above and including the <body> tag, styles are set in the stylesheet.css file in the includes directory, and take out the </body></html> tags at the bottom of it for the define('TEXT_MAIN' statement. You should use the define statement for straight text with minimal HTML tags and use the style sheet to handle formating as much as possible if you can. osCommerce Knowledge Base osCommerce Documentation Contributions
lbhaven Posted March 15, 2007 Author Posted March 15, 2007 I'm not exactly sure how to do this. Which lines do I need to remove / replace? What do I need to change to the stylesheet page?
vasttech Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 Delete: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <title>New Page 1</title> <style> <!-- p.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm; margin-top:0cm} --> </style> </head> <body> And delete: </body></html> at the bottom of the text you inserted. Also, I would highly recommend reading the Wiki and Knowledge Base (see my signature below for links) as they will give you a very good understanding of osCommerce. Then search the forums for help, most likely someone has definitely had the same problem in the past, then post a question. Someone will usually always answer. Not trying to be mean, just trying to help you out in obtaining a better understanding of osCommerce. Also, if you are unfamiliar with PHP or a PHP command you can always search at php.net for help there. Hope this helps. osCommerce Knowledge Base osCommerce Documentation Contributions

vasttech Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 You still need to do some deleting :). <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"> <title>New Page 1</title> <style> <!-- p.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm; margin-top:0cm} --> </style> </head> <body> All needs to come out. Since osCommerce builds the page you do not need to redefine your title or the meta tags. Also the body tag is already included when osCommerce builds the page. You should move the style definition (p.MsoNormal) to your stylesheet.css file. The proper syntax for the line of PHP you are trying to edit is: define('MAIN_TEXT', 'Put Your Text Here'); Notice the beginning and ending single quotes around Put Your Text Here. If you have single quotes anywhere else in the text you need to escape them by doing this: \' so for example if you have define('MAIN_TEXT', 'This is the greatest site. It\'s the best place to buy from.'); See how the single quote has been escaped out. Hope that helps. osCommerce Knowledge Base osCommerce Documentation Contributions

vasttech Posted March 28, 2007 Posted March 28, 2007 define('TEXT_MAIN', Welcome to <b>Longboard... Should be: define('TEXT_MAIN', 'Welcome to <b>Longboard... You need the single quote before Welcome. You don't have to take out all the formating (i.e. <b>Some text</b> or <span style="MsoNormal">SomeText"</span>). What you do need to do though is move the definition for MsoNormal from this file to stylesheet.css. Where previously you had: <style> <!-- p.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm; margin-top:0cm} --> </style> That portion can be moved to the stylesheet.css file. You will see how the other styles are setup there. Not to sound rude, but you may want to get yourself a HTML book. Just so you can better understand what some of these things are. Believe me been doing this for over 10 years and I still have 5 books sitting on the shelf in front of me at all times :)... They go a long way for quick reference or those long nights where things start running together and even the obvious becomes hard. While an HTML book won't get you far with PHP at least it will help you understand what the PHP code is doing to some point or at least help you understand how the website is laid out with tables and styles. osCommerce Knowledge Base osCommerce Documentation Contributions
lbhaven Posted March 29, 2007 Author Posted March 29, 2007 Did the quote change. Thanks, all is well now. I did the stylessheet update but didn't notice any difference with or without those lines of code. I'll look into some html training. Thanks again. Its always the most simple of mistakes which are the hardest to figure out.
