    You don't need to "call" the other style sheet - you simply name it stylesheet_ie.css and zen will automatically pick it up and apply the differences.

    Zen has a text pad in the css folder called css read me I suggest you peek at it.

    Basically, zen will read stylesheets in alphabetical order in the css folder so if you have :

    stylesheet.css
    stylesheet_ie.css
    stylesheet_mine.css
    stylesheet_new.css

    Zen is going to read and apply those stylesheets in exactly that order.


    Hope that helps

    Mod,

    Just had a re-look at your site, and you have replaced the css with one from 2004 that is all table based and part of the hipctech template....This template is NOT compatible with ZenCart beginning with the 1.3.x series.

    hey,

    You kow about a year ago I bought a Modchip for my older model PSII and I managed to destory it, lol, still have the mod chip, but got a new PSII.

    Thing is I was under the impression that it was not legal to sell Mod chips in the UK, and indeed now as far as I was aware the US also?

    Have they changed the rules (if so I will reconsider a new one) off the record of course ;-)

    at present it is not illegal to sell modchips in the uk most modchips come with a legal bios on them that allows your to flash them with what ever bios version your want dependant on the job you want them for
    however most of the bios's that allow you to get round the copy protection are illegal as the are based on the console manufacturers copyrighted code and thats at the point that the chips then become illegal
    having said that some chips do come preflashed witt a bios that allows you to play backup and import games for example the matrix infinity come preflashed but the code they use on the matrix chips is legal as the matrix team wrote the code themselfs without using and of sony's original code

    Sadly I have one that requires soldering at 17 points on the board, and even using tracking wire its useless, lol

    Never mind.
