Using CSS over-rides with sideboxes...

[Alex Clarke]

Ok, I've managed to use (what I call a CSS over-ride) on the categories and manufacturers box, but cannot apply it to custom boxes.

All boxes are formatted with the sideboxContent CSS code. I have added the following code to my CSS file to 'over-ride' the sideboxContent for the categories sidebox...

#categoriesContent {
  padding-left: 6px;
}

This works fine. I've also used the same technique for the manufacturers box.

However, I'm trying to apply this same technique to a custom box (search by price range). As you can probably guess, I've had no luck getting this to work so far.

Anyone able to help, please?

Unbelievable. If you are refering to the Quick Price Sidebox, then while you were struggling to style it, I was busy upgrading it to v1.3 standards. It should appear in the downloads section within the next few days.

Unless there is a version out there of which I am unaware, this sidebox was designed for use in version 1.2 of Zen Cart. It can be used in version 1.3, but doesn't quite conform to the normal sidebox layout, though it's very close.

If you are using the stand-alone Quick Price Search sidebox, rather than the combined box, then you would need to apply your styling to

#search_pricerange

If you were to post a link to your site, it would be much easier to be definitive about this.

Thanks for the reply. I'll look forward to the 1.3 Quick Price Searchbox.

At the moment I've not got my site online. I'm building it on my dev machine, which isn't public. Guess I could upload a demo copy sometime.

kuroi - Any news about the new sidebox?

Ok, I actually found that changing the padding under "#searchbypricerangeContent" in my css file did the trick! :)
