    It will help in that we can dynamically "alter" the css and directly see the result in our browser.

    Now we need to know what you are altering and what you are expecting to happen.

    I have tried changing a lot of things, but nothing works. It could be that I just dont understand how the stylesheet works because I deleted everything from it expecting it to really mess thing up on my site (just as a test). But nothing happened.

    Default Re: Changing code in stylesheet.css has no effect

    I am just now noticing that some of the things I tried to change last night are now working. But now I am trying to change the code again, and nothing happens.

    What makes the changes take effect?

    As far as Zen Cart is involved, changes take effect immediately when the file is uploaded.
    So, when you use your FTP program to upload the edited file, it is immediately available for subsequent visits.

    If you are not seeing the changes, then the file's contents have probably been cached by your browser. Clear your browser's cache to cause a reload. You might be able to trigger a reload by pressing F5 when looking at the page, or right-clicking and choosing "Refresh" or "Reload" depending on your browser. But emptying the cache is most effective.

    Using your browser's "Inspect" functionality can help further as well. Firebug takes it up another level too. You can find discussions of these web designer tools all over the internet.

    Thank you. I feel very dumb right now. I thought hitting the home button was the same thing as reloading the page. It is all wrking properly.
