    Default customizing

    ok least take this in baby steps

    I want to change my text in the main body
    to be centered at the top
    stylesheet text I changed to this :
    /*The main content classes*/
    #contentColumnMain, #navColumnOne, #navColumnTwo, .centerBoxContents, .specialsListBoxContents, .categoryListBoxContents, .additionalImages, .centerBoxContentsSpecials, .centerBoxContentsAlsoPurch, .centerBoxContentsFeatured, .centerBoxContentsNew, .alert {
    vertical-align: top;
    text-align: center;
    font-family: comic sans Ms;

    also when I want to change individual font size within an area I assume I do this with my html coding in languages?TIA

    Sorry, I'm having a little trouble understanding the questions.

    Did the stylesheet changes you made work?

    Generally, font-size changes are made in the stylesheet, but you need to know what class or id they're under. That's why we recommend the Web Developer plugin for the Firefox browser so often here. In this case, exactly what text do you want to change?

    Hi stevesh
    thanks for helping
    No the above did not center the fonts.

    Generally I will need one line in one size and then possibly the next smaller. And then maybe the next smaller.
    Please correct me but I figured that the stylsheets were for the general overall and the specific within an area then you were using the language. This will be true throughout my pages where I will be changing fonts sizes alot for the discriptions. of products and just the index page information.

    I do have the web dev for foxie and also firebug altho have not used it yet. firebug that is - I have been messing with WD - I have found that it does not update the changes as it would in IE.
    Why?
    I Know I have aske alot of Q?
    I have printed off my stylesheet to help me find things and that helps too. TIA

    I noticed in the stylesheet at the top thereis a change of fonts for h1
    h2
    h3
    h4
    are these different sections in the header that can be used for what i am needing?

    If so where do I change the text for these? I have looking in the header.php and tried to add on some coding but since I am not knowledgeable in php then I dont think it will work:
    define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '437px');
    define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '282px');
    define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'shop1a.jpg');
    define('HEADER_WRAPPER2_TITLE','Stitch n Frame');

    right now I have got my shop name in the tagline and I dont know whether that is a good place or not. because my address and discription of the shop needs to be smaller than the shop name
    http://stitchnframe.home.att.net like this.

    finding the location of text is a little tricky the searchs that was suggested in the tutorials come up with no results. TIA
