I don't know what i do wrong, but i cant get it fixed. Can you please help me.

This is the code in the stylesheet.

#manufacturersHeading, #currenciesHeading, #musicgenresHeading, #recordcompaniesHeading, #searchHeading, #search-headerHeading {
font-size: 0.9em;
color: #ffffff;
}
.leftBoxHeading, .rightBoxHeading {
margin: 0em;
background-color: #abbbd3;
background-image: url(../images/tile_top.gif);
padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
}

.centerBoxHeading {
margin: 0em;
background-color: #abbbd3;
background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);
padding: 0.5em 0.2em;
}
.leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
margin: 0em;
border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(../images/tile_boxes_background.gif);
border-bottom: url(../images/tile_bottom.gif);
margin-top: 1.5em;
}
.sideBoxContent {
background-color: #ffffff;
padding: 0.4em;
}


Thanks

Thanks for more info.

There is a template called Future Zen in the downloads section and it has curved edges on the sideboxes -- not sure if it has the bottom, or just the top. Download it and see how the sideboxes are coded in the stylesheet in that template. This may be the best place to start and compare codes. That was my only idea to play with it.

As for the side lines, instead of using an image file, I would increase the pixels and change the color.

.leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
margin: 0em;
border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(../images/tile_boxes_background.gif);
border-bottom: url(../images/tile_bottom.gif);
margin-top: 1.5em;

I would change that stuff in red. Try changing to 3px, and whatever color you want, say #660033, just as a test.

Also, to play with your cart without having to change the stylesheet,
use the Firefox Browser, download the Web Developer's tool. In that tool is a CSS editor. This will bring up the stylesheet code on the left and you can try different things in the code and see it on your web page sitting to the right. Very helpful. Then go change your actual stylesheet when you have what you want.

I also downloaded Color Zilla which will give you the Hex codes (those 6 digit numbers) for whatever color you want. Then you can test that, too, using the Web Developers tool.

I'm new to this stuff so this pretty much covers my experience. I hope it helps. Let me know how it goes. Download the Future Zen template (i'm gonna because I want to see the round box corners myself) and see how the author did the curves. Then download the Firefox helper tools. Post here how it goes.

If it still isn't coming out, eventually someone will wander in here who has more experience than I changing these pieces and we'll both get the info.

Good luck,
