Category Sidebox Links Single Line not Double

**habsolutely** · 4 Sep 2011, 06:06 AM

Hi,

Trying to make the Category links in the sidebox single, not double. Searched this forum, can't find the exact solution. I tried one person's solution of having

Code:

margin-bottom: -1.2em;

assigned to

Code:

a.category-top, A.category-top:link

but that didn't work at all, it just pushed everything closer together.

Currently I have this:

This is link A
(2)

This is link B
(5)

And I want:

This is link A (2)

This is link B (5)

Where do I fix this issue exactly?

you need to increase the width of your column this can be done in admin configuration and then layout boxes

Sorry but that's not it. They are 200 px wide and some links are like 3 letters long, which obviously shouldn't bump the # down to the next line. There must be a <br> that makes this happen, no?

There isn't in stock Zen Cart. Your template could be changing that, though. We need to see it live to have a better idea of what is really happening.

Here's an example of one of the links that goes to two lines. If I know where to edit it, I can play with it and probably fix it. Is it the " "?

Code:

<li class="category-top"><span class="top-span"><a class="category-top" href="http://mywebsite.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=index&amp;cPath=2">Deuteronomy</a>&nbsp;(2)</span></li>

There is nothing in the HTML output that would inherently cause a line break there. If the links were styled as display: block; they would take the whole column width and force the following (2) to the next line. Again, we need to see this live to be sure of what is happening.
