Going Crazy - Please Help!

[mkmcgrath23]

I'm trying to lay out two attribute dropdowns. One is for T-shirt sizes and the other is for T-shirt Colors. In Firefox and IE7, they are fine but in IE6, the two dropdowns and "Add To Cart" section is floating all over the page. Where/what files do I need to tweak to layout the placement of my attributes on the product pages?

Thanks in advance.

Please look at this in Firefox (this is how it should look) and then in IE6. You can see that the dropdown menu for sizes is all over the place (usually moves to the bottom of the page but moves around when you click on things too). It moves randomly and also the text shifts randomly as well as the "add to cart" box. Any ideas? Thanks.

Sorry about that...it should be up now. Thanks!

If someone can come up with a solution for me, I'll paypal you $25 for the help. I am stuck and have tried to alter many files. Anyone? I just seem to have this problem in IE6.

Thanks!

Your site has many html errors:

Fix those first, it may correct the display on IE. We really can't help unless we have access to your server to fix the files.

I'm using the free_red template so most of the errors were from the original code in this template. I will try to fix those first. Any ideas of the files that I would need to tweak to get the layout I desire? Is this all in the stylesheet or are there others involved?

Thanks so much for the help.

I would suggest 3 tools you need:

Firebug and Webdeveloper add-on for FireFox

And ZenCart Admin-> tools -> developer tools

Now here is how to use it:
Say I want to locate where the code for the size attribute box located, I would right click on the box and choose Inspect (Firefox, after installing the add-ons)

I get this <select id="attrib-2" name="id[2]">

Now lets see, for the nth attribute, you would have <select id="attrib-n" name="id[2]">

Huhm, lets do a search for attrib- using the developer tool kit

Okie, found the guy here:
/includes/modules/your_template/attributes.php

Now I need to use my ftp prog, open this file and check its content.

Well, there goes my tutorial!

The tricks are: choosing the right keyword to search, and know a bit about how ZC is structured.

Thank you for this information. I will definitely try it out and see what I can do.

I'm sure I'll be back for more help soon!
