    Default Re: Credit card sidebox image and box height

    Oh, I have more advice to add. I like your template, but I don't find appeal in regards to the center column header graphic bloated and showing two highlight lines like it is. I have a tidbit of stylesheet code to tweak in order to get that center box top matching like the sidebox tops. Damn it, my "Enter" key still isn't working. Okay, find the following Selector code in your stylesheet: h2.centerBoxHeading {
    background-color:#1D5685;
    background-image:url(../images/bg_box_header.gif);
    color:#FFFFFF;
    font-size:1.3em;
    margin:0em;
    padding:0.5em 0.2em;
    } Change the value in red to 0.3em Sorry this is a mess, but it's the best I can do without having the use of my "Enter" key. lol

    I appreciate your input but I did not see any difference when I made the change. Did you?
    I am not sure what you are exactly talking about. What is bloated? I don't see it.
    I am using IE7 if that helps. Thanks

    And on a second note: Is there any way to center the product name and price on all of my listings. I moved the product image to below the product name and price and really would like to center the products name and price for symmetry.

    Do you have a pay-pal account? I would like to send you a gift.

    Cheers!

    No, I don't see a difference. Basically, what I see is that the center column header graphic shows two highlight lines due to the graphic being stretched horizontally. That's in IE6, IE7, and FF.

    Oh boy, I think the prior code got snipped in my past post, sorry! It should be as follows:

    Code:
    h2.centerBoxHeading {margin: 0em; background-color: #1D5685; background-image: url(../images/bg_box_header.gif); padding: 0.5em 0.2em; font-size: 1.3em; color: #ffffff;}
    The above value in red, should maybe be: 0.3em

    What that will do is shrink the center column header graphic until the lower highlight disappears, it would look more streamlined like your sidebox tops. That's just me though, you don't have to take heed by any means. I'm just offering a suggestion as an extremely picky person and ex-designer. lol

    No, I don't have PayPal and I don't require anything. I appreciate the gesture though but your happiness is good enough for me.

    BTW, is it just me having to type out on notepad and then c/p into a post here in order to have the "Enter" key working?

Sorry for missing that, but aren't they centered? ~Edit.... hahaha, yup, you beat me too it.

    hahha.. nope. Oh, and it was soooo close. If I didn't have to convert my posts in Notepad first.. I would have beat you. lol

    Funny that my "Enter" key works fine in Notepad, but not in the post input. I don't get it. I've been over-working Firefox and it's extensions, so I guess I deserve it.

    I tried editing my stylesheet like you suggested.
    h2.centerBoxHeading {margin: 0em; background-color: #1D5685; background-image: url(../images/bg_box_header.gif); padding: 0.5em 0.2em; font-size: 1.3em; color: #ffffff;}

    I even changed it to
    h2.centerBoxHeading {margin: 0em; background-color: #1D5685; background-image: url(../images/bg_box_header.gif); padding: 0.0em 0.0em; font-size: 1.3em; color: #ffffff;}
    did not seem to change a thing.

    I feel so...... So Darn Stupid!
    I have been looking for the problem at the header not the center column.
    Gotcha now. How's that look now that I stopped mutilating it?

    It's XxXfabulousXxX !

    Sorry, I'm not the best at explaining. So, I'm to blame for the misguided Selector tweaks. I have a hard time converting thought into word. I should stick to poetry. Although, I think I would add to confusion even more, in regards to explaining in Haiku or simple rhyme.

    How did you kill your keyboard? I spilled soda into mine once. "NOT GOOD"
