    Default Re: Right column overlapping centre column?

    Hi schoolboy, thanks for the reply. I take your point, but in our case we are trying in the long run to effectively integrate Facebook with the website for both marketing and actual live sales. So yes excessive widgetry et al will slow down site performance however this one is deemed necessary (for us).

    In the meantime, I've taken your excellent advice and shrunk the main image resolution and brought the right column in properly, however the FB sidebox content now sits outside the sidebox border! Any tips? I followed this great tutorial here. Functionality is spot on, just need to tidy up that border. Oh and any ideas or tips on how to show only 1 or 2 products in the New Products sidebox?

    Thanks again.

    Default Re: Right column overlapping centre column?

    Okay well I seem to be working in the right direction with this, but would still greatly appreciate any nudges!

    I have shrunk the resolution of the main image, and that has brought the right column in, however there is still an uneven amount of white space between the centre column and right column that I'd love to minimise. You can see what I mean here:




    And I've tried to centre align the content of the two sideboxes in the right column by adding a class to stylesheet.css:

    Code:
     .centeredImage
        {
        text-align:center;
        margin-top:0px;
        margin-bottom:0px;
        padding:0px;
        }
    Then calling it in each definition of the sideboxes:

    Code:
    define('TEXT_FANBOX_SIDEBOX', '<p class="centeredImage"><fb:like-box profile_id="116954695015876" width="140" connections="4" stream="false"></fb:like-box></p>');
    Code:
    define('TEXT_BLANK_SIDEBOX', '<p class="centeredImage"><img src="/includes/templates/pure_red_free/images/payments.gif" alt="Payment Options"/></p>');
    But I still have excessive whitespace above/below the content in each sidebox.

    Any help at all would be amazing!
