Centering categories in main wrapper

[richphitzwell]

have attempted to place a text-align:center in pretty much all the wrappers and its still going to the left or right if I change the float.

How can I go about centering this as I have an odd number of categories and or I may add more at a later date. This is only happening on the index page.


Also if anybody knows of a script that can automate qr's for each product that would be grand, but thats for another day.

automate qr's? What do you mean?


There is no way to center those last two categories automatically without a bunch of custom coding. You can get the effect for your particular current display with CSS, using the "adjacent selector" operator, similar to this:

.categoryListBoxContents+.categoryListBoxContents+.categoryListBoxContents+br+.c ategoryListBoxContents {margin-left: 123px;}

This would have to be customized to exactly fit the sequence you have, including a br if there is one. If I saw your page live, I could write the correct rule quickly.

Thanks, ill try it later.

I have qr's on every product that directs smartphones back to the specific product. Unfortunately I have been sucking it up and manually doing this which brings up a couple of issues, one being time, and two being if I move a product or category to someplace else it would invalidate the code.

If someone came up with a qr generator script that would poll whatever the url is to the product on the fly that would be awesome!

**I just looked at your code, didnt even think about nudging it over! Simple solution thanks

Glad to hear it! Now what's a qr? I see it's that barcody thing... what does it actually do?

Quick answer, anything I want it to. Your phone scans it in this case it will pull up that specific product on the phone. I have others on sites that will add contact vcards to the persons phone. At businesses I have the wifi information on it so they scan and all the encryption said etc configure the phone to the network. Hell I can put a nice message on your phone like hi!

I've been putting these up for a year now and just in the last month they are becoming common on business cards, bills, whatever.

I've seen them here and there and obviously they have coded information, but that's all I knew (didn't know what they were called either).
