    help question Header Issues

    I'd like to adjust some header items & am having a hard time locating the correct file. The space I'm referring to is just below the Home, Log in, Search bar Line & above the Catergories, home, Search bar. 1st - I've edited my Tagline text & changed to my logo however (as their are tutorials for this), but where do you change the font & size of the text? Or where do I find how to input a pic where the text is (or is this not possible since I've got my logo aligned to the left & that's the pic for this space). How/Where do I change the background for this box.

    My site is www.endzoneonline.com for those wishing to look.

    I've seen some really amazing Zen Cart stores (some have blown me away) but for now I just need some help in setting up my own simple store.

    Thanks for your assistance,

    You can edit your stylesheet (/includes/templates/your_template/css/stylesheet.css) to change any of the characteristics of #tagline {} or #taglineWrapper {} (add the selectors if not already there.)

    You can change the tagline define to the HTML code for an image.

    Glenn,
    Thanks for the response. I've finally got the tagline font size & style changed. Going to work on the wrapper now. Thinking of changing it to a pic in the future - I'm not quite clear on "You can change the tagline define to the HTML code for an image" a generic example would be very helpful."

    Any help would be great!

    Thanks again,

    I've changed my taglineWrapper to:

    #taglineWrapper {
    color:#339966;
    }

    but it doesn't seem to do anything - is this not correct? Would this change the background color of the Tagline in the header?

    Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Okay, I've figured out my last issue - should be background color. So scratch my last question, but I'm still lost on post #3 of this list adding the pic.

    define ('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', zen_image(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE_IMAGES . 'taglineimage.gif', 'Alternate Tagline text'));

    This should make the tagline an image drawn from
    /includes/templates/your_template/images/taglineimage.gif.

    The white space is caused by a <br class="clearBoth" /> somewhere around the bottom of the branding display section, or maybe below it. It is unnecessary in Firefox and could just be deleted, but that will sometimes cause IE to mess up the display. If you change that one to
    <div class="clearBoth"></div>
    it should help.
    The tagline is not quite as tall as the logo, so there will still be a space below that unless you add a height to #tagline that matches the logo height.

    gjh42,
    Thanks for your response. I've got everything I currently needed fixed except the white line below "the end zone" the
    <div class="clearBoth"></div> didn't change anything in Firefox & added a small white line to the top in IE7. So how do I change the #tagline height to match the logo?

    Thanks again & any help is appreciated,

    Okay, problem is now solved, I changed the tagline wrapper to a height of 99px (which matches my logo) which then caused the white line to go completely across the page, not just under the tagline. So I added the line #headerWrapper {margin-bottom:-12px;} which made the line go poof! Not sure it's the best way, but it did fix it. Glenn thanks for the help.
