Hello, just to begin I am not just a newbie asking for help regarding issues withoit spending hours looking for help and topics more specifically to what I am looking for.

So if I can list a few issues ive learnt from studying oscommerce that need to be addressed. But no matter how much I play with the codes I cant get it right. Here goes.

 

1. How to check how many queries are sent to the server and what is the limit that stresses the server out out or what is the safe limit

 

2. How to individually give each and every infoBox different styles. Tried to do it using CSS but the picture images in the header are always not in correct place or creating issues.

So ive used a different approach and coded it into the actual box file (categories.php) etc. Now even though the picture in the header is perfect fit now, cant change the CSS

of the text (infoBoxcontents) value?! I wanted to give each line of the category listed vertically a different colour. To colour match the website.

 

3. Also how to take the log-in box to the header element. And have the shoppingcart and Log-in intergrated into one box exactly as the one on (www.play.com)

Ive researched and know how to take it to the header but not how to get the 2 features intergrated into one box

 

4. This is probably the most stupid question I feel am asking but needs to be addressed. What are the links at the bottom of websites called? (or how to add them)

Such as the one you find at the very bottom of this webpage where it has "Trademark Policy | Copyright Policy | Site Map"

 

5. On item desription page, how can I add a iframe tabbed box at the bottom of the page, so i can list the individual spec instead of having a massive list. Just to clarify I have

Tried one of the contributions but had issues with that regarding browser compatiblity.

 

6. Instead of having new products for "current month" infoBox at the bottom. Can you add a iframe tabbed box?

 

7. Finally how can I add a linkable picture in the Main_Text area when a category is selected??!! as this does not have a specific file, only a "cPath" path??

 

I do apologise about the long list and if it is an exhaustive one but I am a person that likes to learn and code and manage and do things myself than sit down and let somebody else do it. I am a quick learner as you can see from the website I started 3 days ago and have learnt alot. But these are some of the issues I cant overcome no matter what I try.

And it is driving me crazy as I cant find anything on the net that meets what am trying to do specifically.

 

So if someone can point me in the right direction or even show me what codes would be appreciated. Many Thanks.

Yeah Ive had a look at all that already but yet can't find anything that would help me. Theyre all relating to a specific mod that's been created. To be honest sam, only number one and two I may have come accros that would require me hours to try ammend to what am looking for, and that's messing around with codes blind, but find nothing at all relating to the others. All I was looking for was some help, or point in the right direction of the points am looking for, and I can do the rest of studying it. But no problems. Will keep searching.
