ebay sidebox layout changes

[Graffxman]

Hello to everyone!

Little by little, thru blood, sweat and tears, Im getting there!
My latest peeve...

I managed to get the ebay sidebox installed - albeit not fully working yet ...

I havent been able to figure out how and where to change the box background color to WHITE, to match the rest of the boxes...

ANy suggestions on how to change the background color behind the ebay logo and inbetween the dropdowns?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I Amaze Myself!

Either Im THAT good ... or just lucky!
Sorry for the question, I resolved it already...

I started messing around with the CSS ... I had made a note-to-self where the sideboxes area is, colors, etc...
I gave it a try and added:

#ebaybox {
background color: "ffffff"
}

Wow, it worked!

Now all I have to do is to get the thing working - YAY!

Thanks y'all !!!

Hello Graffxman,

I've been desperatly trying to setup the ebay sidebow for many days, but i wasn't able to do it by myself...


Can you please tell me your secret and how you manage to setup the Ebay box ?

That's a great contrib which could help me a lot


Thanks in advance

Hey there TimBaloo;

I know what you mean, it took me some sweat and tears to get it...
There is no secret really, just a lot of trying.

Tell me what you mean by "setup" ...
Are you referring to installing it - or getting it to work?
Ive got it installed, but not working because I dont have the ebay Account ID, name and other information I need to configure inside the module itself. Once I have that info I'll get it working.

In the meantime - if you mean installing it inside zc, I might be able to help.
First, where did you get your ebay mod from? What version is it?
Didnt it come with install files?
What version of ZC are you using? Im using 1.3.02
Do you have a link so I can see your site/install?

Hi Graffxman,

first, thanks for replying so fast


Unfortunately, i dont have yet a url to show you because i'm currently working on local server, but I attached a screen capture showing error messages.

Here is my config:

ZC 1.3.02

I started from "geeks4u_eBay_ZC12" (from the zen-cart.com download archives) and tryed to adapt it to run in zc 1.3.02:

I managed to insert a "our Ebay account" field in Mysql database, the ebay box correctly displays but when i click on it, i get the following error messages:

Warning: fopen(http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ms&userid=eBay Account&since=-1&sort=3&rows=0): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request in c:\program files\easyphp1-8\www\1\includes\templates\template_default\templates\tpl_ebayauctions_default.p hp on line 112

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in c:\program files\easyphp1-8\www\1\includes\templates\template_default\templates\tpl_ebayauctions_default.p hp on line 153

Do you have any idea ?

[Graffxman]

If I remember correctly...

Your supposed to insert the ebay account / ID info in the tpl pages as well - not just the SQL - did you ?

I know you have to replace those lines somewhere because I remember seeing them in the actual pages, I just havent gotten that far...

Lemme know!
