Text Formatting Issues

[ojhernandez]

Hello all,

I am having some problems formatting the text on my EZPages.

I am using the HTML editor to make certain things 10pt Arial but when I save it and go to the actual EZPage, it doesn't display like it does in the editor.

This led me to believe that something is overriding this in a CSS Stylesheet somewhere but......my issue is that I can't find it.

I looked in "/languages/english/html_includes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/define_main_page.php" but nothing was there.

How can I change my EZPages so the formatting mimics what I put in the HTML editor?

Am I even correct and thinking it's in a Stylesheet I can't find?

Thanks In Advance!

Probably not. What version of Zencart ?

A link to the site might help us spot something.

It's the latest version of Zencart.

The link is c-stamp . com/zencart (link with spaces to prevent being parsed by a search engine)

Thanks,

Everything looks OK to me. What page exactly are you having issues with ?

I'm having trouble with the Authorized Consultants page.

http://www . c-stamp . com/zencart/index.php?main_page=page&id=16&zenid=2c1b60f77894c8b708eb27e57e8f7ba5

In the HTML editor, it shows the font as 10pt Arial but it doesn't show up as 10pt Arial on the actual page.

Thanks!

I'm seeing Arial all right, but the font size is teensy tiny, almost to the point of being unreadable.

Why not let the regular stylesheet handle the style? Is there some reason you absolutely must control the font on those pages independantly of the rest of the cart?

I suppose it doesn't matter the steps I take as long as the end result is the same but the problem is that some things need to be a larger font on the same page.

Also, when I edit future EZPages, I need to know that my HTML editor will be reliable because in other EZPages I have yet to make, I need to have tables and things of that nature.

Could it be the stock HTML editor is bad?

Is there a better one out there that is reccommended?

Or is there a way to do what I want in a stylesheet?

Thanks!

I use FCKEditor, as many here do, but I'm not sure that's your problem. The computed (by the browser) value of the font size on your Authorized Consultants page is less than 8px, which is why it's so small. But when I remove just that content and put it into a page of its own, it comes out a whole lot larger. In other words, the code you're entering is correct. Another clue that tells me that is that the page validates with only a small error near the bottom.

There's something wrong in your stylesheet which is causing (I guess) a font size to be calculated more than once, and each time it gets smaller. You'll have to do some debugging in the stylesheet to track that down.

Where is the stylesheet located?

Thanks!
