Custom Buttons

[RodG]

Hi Rod,

Yes, I did download that mod and customized it.. however, I just wanted to be able to do the buttons because I know some clients will want them so might as well learn to do them.. I still would love to know how to get these last three buttons going..

Thanks so much for your reply.. Pamela

Here's a more specific example of how to 'roll your own':

I was figuring that the mod I referred you to would have a similar example, but with an included zencart stylesheet ready to edit.
Using the 3rd party info means you may need to add to the zen stylesheets as opposed to just editing.

Same results, same methods, different examples.

Cheers
Rod

Unfortunately, that didn't work at all.. plus that's for submit.. I need for the Search button.. I know some designers successfully do this very thing.. but none of them have written any tutorials and I don't have the ***** to ask them how they do it.. lol

Aarrtrghhh... ooooerrr.... Eeeeekkkkkk....

*HTML has two 'types' of buttons. INPUT buttons and SUBMIT buttons. There isn't a 'Search' button as such. What you are calling a "Search button" is in fact a SUBMIT button. The only difference is that the text 'submit' has been changed to read 'search'.

This is why I keep pointing you to the references on how to style the 'SUBMIT' button, because it is exactly the same button.

*HTML has had many changes over the years. This may no longer be entirely accurate.

Hi Rod,

Let me add to your: Aarrtrghhh... ooooerrr.... Eeeeekkkkkk.... DUHHHHHHH..... I should have known that.. what a dunce!

Ok, I get it... sometimes you gotta flick this brain of mine.. I got "these kids will be home all summer and in my face" on the brain right now, lol

Thanks again, Pamela

This is just a mess.. I'm just going to use the CSS button Mod and be done with it.. who knew a stupid search button would cause so much grief! Plus.. now I don't have to make all those darned buttons..
