    Default Product Description Layout Change

    Hi.
    Here is how my page currently looks:
    http://www.thewhitingpost.com/index....products_id=46
    I want to move the 'Sizes Available' higher up so that it is either just below the image and 'Manufactured by' or just above the 'Add to Cart' box.
    I'd like to know which files control the layout and also which css classes best control this page.
    Many thanks.

    Just bumping this in case someone who knows the answer hasn't seen it. I still don't know how to do this and would appreciate some help.
    Many thanks.

    tpl_product_info_display.php
    For css - get and use FireFox as your browser and a compliment of available extentions to be able to determine the css class or css ID of elements you want to style

    Thank you kobra for those tips on Firefox.
    I am wary of editing the position of elements because of the possible knock-on effect it has on way the page displays. I will over time and when I am more familiar with zencart, learn how to edit the page layouts.
    As a temporary option and one which works for me at the moment, I went into the admin area
    catalog>product types>product general>edit layout
    and changed the Show Manufacturer value. It isn't the solution but I don't feel I actually need to show this on the description.

    tpl_product_info_display.php is designed to be easy to change the display order of elements. Each section of code is enclosed in <!--bof xxx--> and <!--eof xxx--> tags, and you can move whole blocks from one place in the file to another - just don't put one block inside another.

    Another clarification for another newb please.
    I changed this file in:
    /STERILIZERSANDAUTOCLAVES/catalog/includes/templates/template_default/templates

    But the changes don't seem to take effect - where else or what other file do I need to change?
