Turn on the ez-pages sidebox, then go to "tools", "Ez-pages" and add all the hyperlinks your heart desires.

Thanks Jettrue, much appreciated.

Next question is, how can I add some space inbetween the sideboxes on the left and right hand sides so they don't sit right on top of each other??

Many thanks in advance.

dharma,

90+% of the time, if IE looks bad, the problem is with something in the code. FF is very forgiving and will adjust. IE is clueless. Head over to http://validator.w3.org/ and let it check your site or add the html validator from tidy to ff.

Sorry, another question. How can I decrease the width of the centre column so there is more room between the centre column and the left and right columns?

Many thanks.

this may help, unless you are talking margin or padding.

I fiddled with the left and right widths changing from 150 to 135px but it wasn't what I'm after. I guess I'm wanting to increase the padding between the centre column and the left column and the centre column and the right column.

Thanks again.

Somewhere around line 520 in your stylesheet, you'll find a padding call for .centerColumn.

You may need to separate it from the others unless you want the same padding for all.

Yep, that's fixed it, thanks. All I need know is to find out how to put more space between the boxes on the left and right columns.

Thanks again.

You Guys Are So Smart!

It turns out I was missing an end tag, and it was not a custom IE7 css massagey thingy as I thought..... it looks fine now! thanks again!

oh! I was not able to validate the shopping cart page because a product must be the cart to view that page.

Any work arounds? I have also tried Total Validator from the FF browser, but no luck viewing the shopping cart page with products.

Hey all, hey jettrue. Wanted to ring in with my $.02 that your theme kicks much ######, and I am currently kicking back because finding it took about three days off the project for me.

I had a question, though. I've switched up the topnav file with one of mine, separated into four icons. I've adjusted the css to allow for four a.link spots, and currently the three that existed before are fine now, but I have added a third button (my account is the fourth) and don't understand where to put the actual link. I've looked through all the included files and cannot see any static links, and I don't know how zen cart is generating those.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I'm sure this is a very easy question, but I can't work it out. How do I add pictures/images to the sidebars. I know this is a fairly elementary question, but I just can't find anything on this.

Many thanks.
