ELnew Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 I have to main issues with my site at the moment, just recently these have come a problem for me when I started redesigning. 1.) My Column Left is messed up, for the life of me I can't seem where to change the font size, and also the size of the column itself. In IE the length of the column is how I want it, yet in Firefox it's incorrect. 2.) In IE my Product_info pages seem to show a larger page width than normal, I'm searching code at the moment for minor errors but can't seem to come up with a solution, Firefox it shows up fine. *****A UNIVERSAL BROWSER IS A MUST***** hahaha just my .02
Guest Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 As to your first problem. You will notice in IE the image_submit button in auick find is next to the input field. In Firefox it drops below the input field. Thats why Firefox show the longer column. The width is changed in includes.application_top.php. Look for custimization for boxes. The font size is in stylesheet.css. Look for .boxtext. As for your second problem. I think it could be the size of your pics causing the problem in IE. Believe it or not Firefox actually display about a 1 to 2 pixel greater browser width than IE.

Thanks for the input, I'll definitely use the info you gave for my first problem.....I know it's not the images being too big, for a fact I know this. Spent to much time changing images to meet my standards, furthermore I know it's not the images because this problem just came into effect yesterday when I added the easy graphical borders contrib....
Guest Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 The product_info.php page is fine. That is to say that I do not get a scroll bar. I do get one with product listings in IE. If thats what you are talking about, try this just for kiscks and grins to see if it works. BACKU BACKUP BACKUP In catalog/includes/classes/boxes.php find this code class productListingBox extends tableBox { function productListingBox($contents) { $this->table_parameters = 'class="productListing"'; $this->tableBox($contents, true); } } Change to class productListingBox extends tableBox { function productListingBox($contents) { $this->table_cellpadding = '0'; $this->table_parameters = 'class="productListing"'; $this->tableBox($contents, true); } } All I did was add a cellpadding of 0.
ELnew Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 That greatly reduced the whitespace that was being shown, but there is a tad bit left, any further suggestions?
Guest Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 The only other thing I can think of is as this is only on your index.php page find this on index.php <!-- body //--> <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3"> Change the cellpading to 0. That may change the way it looks that you don't want though. It would also be different from all of your other pages. The only other is to check the easy graphical borders to see if you can change some widths there.

You have it backwards....Firefox shoes the shorter columns...there is something wrong specifically with Column Left, and I can't seem to find why...

ELnew Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 Well I'll just have to deal with it for awhile, thanks for your help, changing the cellpadding in the index.php fixed my problem. Thank you sir. ~Parker
Guest Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 You're welcome. I did answer in your other post as well. Maybe that will help a little more.
