how do i eliminate the white space between attributes?

[humbll]

If you look at this page: http://rda-enterprises.com/index.php...&products_id=9
you will see that there are two attributes set: duration and soundtrack. There is a whole lot of white space in between them, but i would like them to be one right under the other. How do i go about this? thanks in advance...

The cause of the white space is two <br class="clearBoth" /> tags after attribute displays. The clearBoth forces the break to be below any other nearby floated element, i.e. the add to cart box.

I don't have access to the actual files at the moment, but you can start by looking at /includes/templates/your_template/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php; a modules/?/product_info.php and/or (?)tpl_attributes.php will likely be the place to strip the clearBoth out of the attribute output building. I can look again when I get home if you still need help.

Well I cannot make heads or tails of it all, i found what i think is the right file, the template i am using is the sophie blue-grey, and it did not have a file named tpl_product_info_display.php, but i did find one in /includes/templates/template_default/templates, but it did not look like it had a <br class="clearBoth" /> tag in it. So I will take you up on that offer to lok it up when you get home.. THanks in advance..

Ideally i wold like to get it looking like this:

I really like the way that looks, with the add 2 cart button below the attributes so that they are impossible to miss. unfortunately the thread where i found this was a question similar to mine, but they did not say how they got it like this...

That makes the question really easy.

In tpl_product_info_display.php, each section of output is contained between <!--bof xxxx--> and <!--eof xxxx--> comments; simply move the add to cart section below the attributes section, and they will fall into line. You may also need to change float or text-align in the stylesheet for proper arrangement.

It's the interaction of elements on the same line that is causing your present awkwardness.

Worked like a charm!! Thank you soo much!

Hi gjh42,

I am following your advice above; looking for a way to align attributes alongside the Add to Cart button.

Please can you advise further on which file to find the associated <br class="clearBoth" /> tags.

Using V1.3.9 and Contemporary Green template.

Many thanks,
P

/includes/templates/your_template/templates/tpl_modules_attributes.php is the file that has the clearBoth (copy it from /includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_modules_attributes.php).

You may be able to take care of your display issues just in the stylesheet, though. Add these rules:

#productDetailsList+br, .wrapperAttribsOptions br, .wrapperAttribsOptions+br {display: none;}

#productTellFriendLink {clear: both;}

You may not need all of these selectors, depending on your exact current layout. Seeing your site will let me advise exactly what you need.

Hi gjh42,

Pologies for delay! Thanks or your suggestions; have worked to an acceptable conclusion using the CSS option.

Had to adjust the cartAdd top margin and the wrapperAttribsOptions width and then add a line in the CSS to reduce the productReviewLink margin.

Hope it works out for the rest of the site! Will find out I guess.

Thanks again & regards,
P
