First off nice template!

Ok, I wanted to use some of your simple template and didn't know what code did what to make it work. What I wanted to do was use the header and the 3 links next to it. How was this done? I attached the section in question. Thanks!

OK I got it to work (Image Included) but I don't understand how. Here is what I did.

1) Copied the Simple_Zen_Template_2.1\includes\languages\english\simple_zen\header.php to my template. Note: It only hade one change from origional and that was the tagline.
2) Copied the Simple_Zen_Template_2.1\includes\templates\simple_zen\images
A. logo.gif
B. shadow.gif
C. topnav.gif
3) Then I added the code to MY stylesheet.php

* {
	margin:0;
	padding:0;
	}

AND

/* BOF Top Nav Links with Image (shopping cart/contact us/my account). If you'd like to use text links only, comment out this section, and un-comment out the following section*/

#tagline {
	float:right;
	height:70px;
	width:336px;
	}
	
#tagline ul {
  	height:86px; 
  	margin:0;
  	width: 336px;
	background:#fff url(../images/topnav.gif) no-repeat right top;
  	}
  
#tagline li {
  	list-style-type:none; 
  	width:0;
  	height:67px;
    position:absolute;
  	}
  
#tagline a {
	float:left;
  	height:0;
	position:absolute; 
  	color:#000; 
  	text-decoration:none; 
 	padding-top:66px; 
  	font: 1.5em;
 	}
  
#tagline a#sc{
  	position:absolute; 
  	left:30px; 
  	top:0px;
  	width:90px;
  	}
  
#tagline a#cu {
  	position:absolute; 
  	left:140px; 
  	top:0px; 
  	width:85px;
  	}
  
#tagline a#ma{
  	position:absolute; 
  	left:250px; 
  	top:0px; 
  	width:85px;
  	}

#tagline i{visibility:hidden}

/*EOF Top Nav Links with Image */

Here is what I don't understand. Nothing worked untill I added the
* {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}

In my stylesheet? What is *

Thanks,
Chad

Thank you for this lovely template. I've imported a different logo.gif which is slightly deeper than the one you specify. The top nav bar on the right (shop cart, contact etc) now looks a little too high and I would like to shift it down a tad but I can't find the stylesheet tags which does it. When I switch on edit stylesheet in Firefox (web dev exten.) the nav bar disappears.

Better way to get an answer is to include a link to your site. It's hard to answer correctly. Especially when you have made changes.

Get it here.

The download includes the buttons, the images, the css, and the needed files.

I wanted to offer a simple and uncluttered option for a zen cart, without all the clutter. Of course you can add as many sideboxes as you want, and can keep the left and right sideboxes on if you like, but I prefer only having one side on.

Complete instructions are in the download. I would not be surprised if I forgot to include a file or two, so holler at me if it looks grossly different when you install it.

You can see it in action at: http://www.simplezen.sagefish.com

Feel free to ask any questions here, and let me know if you need any different colors for the gradient in the header.

I've already realized a mistake in my upload.. I added a link to the wishlist in my header, since I installed that mod, so if you're not using the wishlist mod, you'll need to remove that link. I'll add that to a subsequent post.

I have NOT tested this in IE, so can someone please send me a screenshot if things look whacked in IE.

Thanks and Enjoy!

Hi there. I'm very new to trying to learn ZC, using the current version. Could you tell me how you do the mouse roll over that shows the enlarged image on your test product in the right side of the sample page? What determines the size of the image? What would I have to do to get an image about 3x that size to show when the mouse rolls over my products? My website is www.p a p e r p o t a m u s .com. Thanks for your time.
