    Default Eliminating wrap-arounds

    The text description tends to wrap around the product info image.
    In other words, when the text is a little long, instead of continuing neatly aligned it will continue below the image.
    I have also uploaded a contrib from the downloads section
    http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=241
    This relocates the additional images which display at the bottom of the page, below the main product image.
    Again, the problem is that attributes tend to wrap around this, thus causing the additional images to be juxtaposed.
    You can see the problem here:
    http://www.haiswigs.com/index.php?ma...&products_id=6
    I have tried to increase width of the whole site, setting it even to 100%, but that doesn't fix the problem, the attributes rows don't break where they should.
    Basically my question is: how do I achieve a tabular design of sorts?
    Like having:
    row, first cell, second cell with rowspan=2
    row, cell with add'l image, cell with add'l image
    You get the idea, everything neatly separated so nothing will overlap.
    Also, I need the attributes to start always below this chunk of code.
    Maybe I need to use a template.
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    Do you want the images to just display beneath each other?

    Well, yes, I would like the additional images to display under the product image.
    But, in general, I would like to have more control over the page layout, because that is not the only issue.
    Additional images are juxtaposed and attributes do not display neatly under the additional images, but are also overlaid.
    I need to know how does Zen Cart control page layout, so I might be able to tweak those files to my needs.
    Thanks for quick answer.

    If anybody else wants to answer this thread, please be my guest.
    I haven't got much so far, tested and uninstalled contribs. 41 and 43 of the donwloads/templates section but they mess up more than they solve for me.
    I will now try ZenMagick to see if I can get results in page layout customization.

    In your templates, look for the tpl_product_info_display.php file. It's not the easiest to read, but that's why the product info view is generated.

    I'm not an expert so I have no concrete advice other than deciphering this file and then re-arranging it as you need.
