It's behind a security layer. You're right, though. The Tabs On/Off issue went away when I used a manual installation of Zen Cart (used Fantastico earlier).Quote:

First of all, I would like to thank you for the wonderful templates and mods you offer on zen-cart.com. I am a new zenner and one of the happy users of your works. I am about to launch my Zen Cart shop using your Apple Zen template. Everything seems okay except for the following pages.
http://ZEN-CART_URL/index.php?main_page=specials
(The problem occurs, when no product is marked as special.)
http://ZEN-CART_URL/?p=1
(the single post view page of the Wordpress mod.)
When there is no special product, the side boxes which are supposed to in the right column move to the left (FF2 & IE6). Also when I view the single post page of the Wordpress mod, the side boxes move to the bottom-left corner under the blog comment section (IE6).
I tried to fix the problem and searched in the support forum but could not find the answer (Sorry, if I overlooked the answer). I would be grateful if someone could help me.
My site is powered by Zen Cart version 1.3.0.2 and Apple Zen template version 2.3.
Thanks for your attention

Hey Jettrue,
Congratulations on producing the first truly professional-looking, and free, template for zen-cart!
Seems no-one replied to my last post, but then I did come in with all guns (or questions!) blazing, and perhaps a more polite protocol is called for.
Solved most of the problems I had there, but I still have one really annoying layout problem.
My version of apple_zen is fairly modified, as you can see, and I have changed (I know ya boo sucks!) to a non-fluid layout, with a set width.
I have changed all widths to 780px and 781px from 70em and 71em.
I have also played around with the centerColumn and NavColumn widths to get everything roughly where I want it (still much tweaking to be done).
The problem, is that can't get all the pieces to line up. Looking at my site in Firefox on a Mac, you will see that the main content is offset from the logo and drop menu.
https://www.shopfoundation.com/store/
Looking at it in Windows IE, things sort of line up, but i have a white box offset to the left of the drop-down menu.
I can't for the life of me work out why!!
Any help gratefully appreciated, to spare what little hair I have left! :eek:
I'll happily share my CSS code if it helps.
Regards,
James W
Still trying to figure it out but cant seem to fix it :blink:Quote:

Both amounts that coincide with how much the ribbon protrudes into those respective areas. And the jmdbag.jpg image is not centered, why? It has 100 pixels to its left and 91 to its right. That doesn't look right.
So, look at those amounts, the differences, etc. and see if you have anything that matches in your CSS that could be the cause.
Thanks for the feedback.
I tried disabling the various layers to see if they were what was causing it. But they weren't. i will have a look at the site in IE7 on a PC to see how they render.
Just went through the CSS with a fine tooth comb, and compared it to the 'virgin' CSS file. It would appear that my CenterColumnWrappers were causing the problem. After playing about with the widths, and more importantly the padding, they now appear to (pretty much) all line up.
Now my next question (and I realise this isn't exactly an apple_zen question! Is there any way of changing individual background colours in the drop-down nav table?
Thanks again for the great template, and apologies for mucking it all up with my tinkering!!
Regards,
James

Thanks!
Play with the background colors in stylesheet_header_menu.css. For those without, assign background colors. And use obvious colors, red, black, blue, green, yellow, etc. so that you'll quickly locate what handles what.Quote:

Of course, you'll need to edit a language file or two. At least that'd be my first thought of adding to it.
Thank you, I will give that a shot!
