mostlygrey template question

[Smithers]

Im running Zen Cart 1.3.8a with the mostlygrey template. My site can be viewed here http://thumpercrazy.com/store. As you can see I have a blue line around the frames in the middle of the page and one on the top. I would like to outline the whole page with the same color and have been unsuccesful. Can someone point me the right direction? Im fairly new to stylesheet editing. Thanks!

When you have 2 stylesheets, Zencart will load them both, so the black borders in stylesheet_old are overriding the blue ones you put in mainwrapper in the new styleshet.

Just move stylesheet_old.css out of the CSS folder.

Sweet! Thanks!

Ok...Another dumb question. What is the location and name of the file I need to edit to add a menu item to the top section next to home and login? (Im assuming overallheader.php, etc..)

I found it..Nevermind...I know..RTFM.

The Search box right is too long: http://www.ip-192.com/cart/

Firebug shows

<input type="text" onblur="if (this.value == '') this.value = 'Search...';" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Search...') this.value = '';" value="Search..." style="width: 120px;" maxlength="100" size="18" name="keyword"/>

When I would use "10" it would fit. Where and how can I change this.

I had a similar problem with the search_header. I did shorten the text and it worked. But I think this is just a quick and not a professional fix.

What would be the right approach to make css-changes to colors and fonts throughout the template based on my blog-site-css?

The wide banner at the bottom is not rotating, while the side banners are, while reloading the site. Doesn't this template offer this option?

I still use the default-mostgrey stylesheet. I didn't make any changes.

But font sizes have changed (compare the demo http://(sorry, site offline)/templates.html), which shouldn't happen. What could be the reason?

I did post this at another location, but I think it's important, because the problem was not template related.

Weird symbols, smashed design, unusual page behavior could be caused by editing without an appropriate notepad!

Notepad++ yesterday installed, works great, solved the problem.

"save as..." files don't fix the problem - start from scratch.
