Header customization quirks

[schoolboy]

The problem may also be within your stylesheets.

Because you reference things like:

li {
list-style:none;
float:left;
}
A:link {
color:#000000;
text-decoration: none;
}

A:visited {
color:#000000;
text-decoration: none;
}

A:hover {
color:#000000;
text-decoration: none;
}
a {
outline: none;
} 

... in style_2.css,

You are creating conflicts with similar statements in stylesheet.css... and stuff will be over-ridden

Somehow we've got to apply these declarations ONLY to the fancy header you have created, or restructure the HTML in your header so it's not using <li> tags...

[schoolboy]

What about:


my_menu_header.php

<div class="myNavBar"> 

Then, dispense with style_2.css and just put the following at the bottom of the stylesheet.css :-

/* removes the "bullet" before each list item*/
.myNavBar li {
list-style:none;
float:left;
}
.myNavBar A:link {
color:#000000;
text-decoration: none;
}

.myNavBar A:visited {
color:#000000;
text-decoration: none;
}

.myNavBar A:hover {
color:#000000;
text-decoration: none;
}
.myNavBar a {
outline: none;
}

#home
{
display: block;
width: 220px;
height: 112px;
background: url("images/home_btn.gif") no-repeat 0 0;

}

#home:hover
{
background-position: 0 -112px;
}

#home span
{
display: none;
}

#store
{
display: block;
width: 90px;
height: 112px;
background: url("images/store.gif") no-repeat 0 0;

}

#store:hover
{
background-position: 0 -112px;
}

#store span
{
display: none;
}

#portfolio
{
display: block;
width: 144px;
height: 112px;
background: url("images/portfolio.gif") no-repeat 0 0;

}

#portfolio:hover
{
background-position: 0 -112px;
}

#portfolio span
{
display: none;
}

#about
{
display: block;
width: 132px;
height: 112px;

}

#about:hover
{

}

{
display: none;
}


#contact
{

height: 112px;
background: url("images/contact.gif") no-repeat 0 0;

}

#contact:hover
{
background-position: 0 -112px;
}

{

.myNavBar {

[tiffanyhunter2009]

none of this has seemed to work. is there a better way all together to insert a custom header? i am open to suggestions.

[tiffanyhunter2009]

schoolboy:

i appologize for the incredibely long post but i couldn't figure out a better way to do it to make sure i am not missing something!

i tried your suggestion and this is what it is doing



maybe i am missing something (i will admit that php is not something i am comfortable with YET. i have enrolled in a class to fix my ignorance though!!!!!!)

here is exactly what i have done:

includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_header.php (red is MY code)

<?php
// Display all header alerts via messageStack:
if ($messageStack->size('header') > 0) {
echo $messageStack->output('header');
}
if (isset($_GET['error_message']) && zen_not_null($_GET['error_message'])) {
echo htmlspecialchars(urldecode($_GET['error_message']));
}
if (isset($_GET['info_message']) && zen_not_null($_GET['info_message'])) {
echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['info_message']);
} else {

}
?>


<!--bof-header logo and navigation display-->
<?php
if (!isset($flag_disable_header) || !$flag_disable_header) {
?>

<div id="headerWrapper">
<!--bof-navigation display-->
<div id="navMainWrapper">
<div id="navMain">
<ul class="back">
<li><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'; ?><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a></li>
<?php if ($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a></li>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li>
<?php
} else {
if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a></li>
<?php } } ?>

<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a></li>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a></li>
<?php }?>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="navMainSearch"><?php require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'sideboxes/search_header.php'); ?></div>
<br class="clearBoth" />
</div>
<!--eof-navigation display-->

<!--bof-branding display-->

}
?>
<?php
if (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2)) {
if ($banner->RecordCount() > 0) {
?>
<div id="bannerTwo" class="banners"><?php echo zen_display_banner('static', $banner);?></div>
<?php
}
}
?>
</div>
<?php } // no HEADER_SALES_TEXT or SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 ?>
</div>
<br class="clearBoth" />

The problem may also be within your stylesheets.

Because you reference things like:

.
.
.

You are creating conflicts with similar statements in stylesheet.css... and stuff will be over-ridden

Somehow we've got to apply these declarations ONLY to the fancy header you have created, or restructure the HTML in your header so it's not using <li> tags...

what would you suggest? i am open! if there is a better way to do this i can

i got rid of style_2.css so the only stylesheet that should be referenced currently would be stylesheet.css so atleast we only have one file that conflicts now!

Try this... DON'T EDIT ANYTHING BELOW...JUST COPY & PASTE
(Backup original files, of course...)

Use this code in tpl_header.php

(includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_header.php)

<?php
// Display all header alerts via messageStack:
if ($messageStack->size('header') > 0) {
echo $messageStack->output('header');
}
if (isset($_GET['error_message']) && zen_not_null($_GET['error_message'])) {
echo htmlspecialchars(urldecode($_GET['error_message']));
}
if (isset($_GET['info_message']) && zen_not_null($_GET['info_message'])) {
echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['info_message']);
} else {

}
?>
