Hi Jettrue,

You are fab! Thanks for that.
After promising that I would stop bothering you, I keep coming back with more. I'm really sorry.
The client now says that they want the image on the home page - inserted into define_main_page.php to stretch right across the area horizontally - ie. 100% width between the grey shadowed borders that go up the sides.
I cannot see where this is defined. I was looking for margins that I could set to 0 but I can't find it anywhere. Can you help??

There's padding on .centerColumn, which is good, as you would want some space for product listings and such. But for the home page, you can do this:

#indexHomeBody .centerColumn {padding:0;margin:0;width:100%!important;}

Then, in my testing, it looks like the image will need to be 821 pixels wide.

I have added this to my style sheet, but is there some other file I need to adjust as I'm not seeing the desired effect?

I guess you got this figured out, cause I see the image all the way across in both IE and Firefox?

[FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial]To allow more viewable area for products, I have set Applezen to have NO sideboxes by setting Column Right Status - Global to 0. In doing so, the language box is no longer visable. Is it possible to have[/FONT][/FONT][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial] the language box show in the header area?[/FONT][/FONT]

Change .centerColumn to width:95%.

To address the issue of not enough space at the bottom of the template, you can change the padding of .centerColumn to:

padding:0 2% 2% 2%;

To address the add to cart box, you'd need to open up includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php to move the add to cart section below the attributes section.

This is really a great template. I will play with your recommendations today! Thank you very much!

Jettrue:
Where can I make a financial contribution for your efforts?
Your suggestions corrected all issues with the excepiton of removing the light gray area from the right sidebox area.
I found the following in your stylesheet.css file:
#centerColumnWrapper {
background:url(../images/shadowRight.png) repeat-y 100% 0;
width:71em;
}
I changed the setting to "repeat-y 0 0" like the shadowLeft.png thinking that would remove the shading. It did not work. I also changed 71em to 0 and that didn't do anything either. Any suggestions? I suppose I could edit the .png file and make it white, but that is cheating. ;-)

Just noticed you did not address the language box question. Since I posted several questions in separate messages it could have easily been overlooked. Without sideboxes can it be located in the header area or someplace else?
