    Background color --- everything that you want to change as far as color is in the css file. Have you tried playing around with the css? For instance... if you look at the body tag in the css file, it has a background color (background:#999;). Try changing that. You never know.

    If you look at the page source, you can see that the sideboxes are controlled by:
    #navColumnOne (left side) and #navColumnTwo (right side)

    The center stuff is controlled by:
    .centerColumn

    Just add the background colors you want to those.

    What I do when I want to change css in a site, is to first look at the source, and find what section I'm wanting to change, then find that tag in the css.

    Hi,

    All your help has worked well. Its turning out great.


    I know I can be a pain sometimes with all these questions I'm sorry. I am trying to play around the css before I ask any questions but theres some I cant get in the code being a rookie at this and knowing only basic html. Im better with hardware since thats what I earn my living on

    I have a couple things.

    Being the only director of my company and having recently expanded from out of eBay sales hence I needed a website.

    1) It does not have that professional look, I am missing something. I love criticism, I believe the more I am criticized the better I can improve my faults. Please please look at me site an tell me what you think I can improve :) Other than my logo as all my business cards have that logo lol.

    2) If you look at my page www.street-market.co.uk youll see that the grey line in the header has a break in the middle; I cant fix it. I have looked at other sites using simple zen and the problem does not exist so the problem can not be from the way I am viewing it.

    HELP ME PLEASE!

    Your logo is 90px tall... the original logo is 86px tall... either you need to resize your image to 86px tall, or in the css change:

    #tagline ul {
    height:86px;
    margin:0;
    width: 336px;
    background:#fff url(../images/topnav.gif) no-repeat right top;
    }

    to height:90px

    Do you realize you have an issue on your product pages as well? (I'm looking at the sony vaio laptop). The description is wider than it should be, and it's pushing the right sideboxes off the page. (At least in Safari and Firefox its doin that). Either you need to turn off the right sidebox altogether, or decrease the width of your center content. Right now the table containing the extra product information is set to 529px wide.

    You also need to change this section:
    #productDescription, .shippingEstimatorWrapper {
    padding: 0.5em;
    }
    to
    #productDescription, .shippingEstimatorWrapper {
    padding: 0.5em;
    clear:both;
    }

    That will move the product description table down where it needs to be.

    Can we continue this via PM? I think some of this is getting beyond the scope of this template thread. I'm happy to help, but would rather do it off the thread.

    Thanks!

    I've reviewed all the templates, including Simple Zen, with IE7 and FF2 and haven't noticed anything obviously wrong in any of them.

    Hi,

    I use the simple Zen 1.8 on my Zen Cart 1.3.5 (German version). I want to remove the shopping cart/contact us/my account links from the header. So I comment the "Top Nav Links with Image and link only" in the css file out but the links are still there.

    You can see it here: http://lm.teestube-online.de

    Anyone an idea what I have to do to remove the links?


    Thanks and greats

    Hi Christain

    The links are part of the HTML generated by your common/tpl_header.php file. The CSS section that commented out styles these links, so all you have removed is the styling rather than the links themselves. To remove the liks you would need either to comment them out in the tpl_header.php file, or you could hide them by adding the following to your stylesheet
    #navMain {display:none}

    Hello!

    I am trying to fix a small bug on this mod in IE6:

    http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55408

    Would this section of the CSS effect it?

    * {
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    }
