blank sidebox border?

[kdav]

hello, all :) I'm having some trouble with my sideboxes. I've installed a blank sidebox, that i intend on eventually being the only sidebox (in other words, the 'information' sidebox that currently shows on my page will be disabled later)...

I'm having difficulty figuring out how to remove the bottom green border and the other gray borders from my sidebox. i've looked at several threads already, and tried about 7 different things and nothing is working. Ive looked all through "includes/templates/MYTEMPLATE/css/stylesheet.css" and sometimes i couldnt even find what CSS other threads were referencing to. is there another css file i should be editing?

i was able to remove the blank sidebox header already.

also, i would like to eliminate some of the white space below the header (above the content)... i'm guessing that came from disabling the breadcrumbs? how can i move my content up closer to the header?

includes/templates/classic/css/stylesheet.css

line 551:

.leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
	margin: 0em;
	border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
	border-bottom: 5px solid #336633;
	margin-top: 1.5em;
	}

Remove both 'border' lines.


The space at the top is actually this:

<br class="clearBoth" />

I believe that's in /includes/templates/classic/common/tpl_header.php. It's the one inside the "branding display" comments.


I recommend using FireFox with the Web Developer Toolbar. You just select "View Style Information" then click on whatever element on the page you're working with it. It immediately shows you all of the CSS in all of the stylesheets that's being applied to that element. Took me only a few seconds to find the line in the stylesheet that was causing the borders by clicking on them...

I like your site so far. Look forward to seeing it when it's finished.

ah, thanks! that worked well.

now, the only thing i cant figure out how to do is get rid of that white header on the blank sidebox. i tried looking in the css, but even if i just change the color, there will still be a space there. i'd rather just get rid of it all together.

also, i think when you add an item to your cart, keep shopping, and then click 'shopping cart', it doesnt register the item. hrmm. :/

Which sidebox is the blank sidebox? They all appear to have content to me...

The shopping cart problem is due to a misconfigured link.

In the HTML code you have this:

<a href="http://sugar-skull.com/shop/index.php?main_page=shopping_cart"><img src="http://sugar-skull.com/shop/images/cart.jpg" border="0"></a><br>

Note the lack of 'www'.

in the PHP source you should have this:

<a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><img src="http://www.sugar-skull.com/shop/images/cart.jpg" border="0"></a><br>
