What code was I suppose to add in the .htaccess file? After spending days tweaking it, I had to throw it out and start over with new installed zen cart and your template. Now the menu works for IE6 so far without tweaking anything. But there is a slight "glitch" I see on the "categories" dropdown menu button, if you hover over it, it shows a weird little bar and it cuts off as if it was trying to give a dropdown but I know there is none there.

I know all of this is much easier if you could see it but I am it is on my localhost and therefore I do not know how to show you.

Thanks.

Here I have added an image for clearer picture of the problem.

In the download, open up additions_to_.htaccess, and follow the instructions there, and add all of it to your site's .htaccess file.

Thanks for the reply Jade,

However, I don't quite understand what to do even after reading the text file you mentioned. Would you mind to show me a file that is correctly modified?

Thanks again.

Copy the entire addititions_to_.htaccess files. Paste that into your .htaccess file. (should be in your site's root folder) change yoursite.com to your actual web site address. Save the file. That's all.

I am LOVING this template, its beautiful! Thank you for taking the time to put it together and for having this wonderful thread. It has helped a lot!!

Now it is my turn to ask for help. If you go to my store, www.jewelsbyjewls.com/store you'll see what I've done so far (I hope it is OK to do the things I've done - colors etc). I've noticed all of the sudden that I am getting additional HOME words on the gray bar below the navigation bar and down at the bottom of the page below the new products. I have not really done much as far as changing the coding. I did shut off the EZPages and the Categories and wondering if that has something to do with it??

Would someone be willing to look at my link above and tell me what I might have done?

Thanks!
Julie

Hi!

They may have been there before, or perhaps if you changed templates, its showing up, because the two things you mention are stock zen cart settings. The top one is called the breadcrumb links, and you can get rid of the "HOME" on the home page (but keep breadcrumbs on other pages for navigation purposes), by going to "Configuration", "Layout Settings", and changing "Define Breadcrumb Status" to "2".


The bottom one is also the stock "HOME" in the footer that is in all zen cart installs. It should however be centered, and that's when I noticed an error in your css.

Code:

---

#navMainLinks {color:white;}
        float:left;
        position:relative;
        list-style-type:none;
        text-align:left;
        font-size:1.2em;
        }

---

You need to remove the } after color:white;

Now, if you want to get rid of that home link, you can add:

display:none;

to

#navSupp ul

Jade, thank you so much for your help!

Julie

ok one last question, and then I think I am done. If you look at the site I'm working on now (my dad's fly rod site) www.ausableflyrods.com and you look at the navigation bar at the top, I removed the HOME section. Is there a way to:

1) totally remove the items under the HOME tab

2) continue the white spacer bar

If I add HOME back to the navigation bar, I get home there (in the dark gray), directly below that in the green, and way up above the logo. I'm not sure how to make them independently disappear.

IF I could get the HOME to stay in the navigation bar, and disappear below it and up above the logo that would be best.

Thanks!
Julie

Hi,

Using for example cellspacing="6" cellpadding="6" in Ez-pages with HTML_editor does not have any effect with the spacing of table-cells. The spacing stays zero.

Could there be some code in default.css causing this?
