2 spacing issues

[PastGenToys]

Alrighty...

My first issue is that under header I have approx 3 cm of white space that I want to get rid of. To see it place your mouse in the header area, left click and drag down. You will see a small blue area on the right... I want that to go away.

Second issue is the opposite... the top "search" side box is touching the EZ page info bar (or whatever its called). I would like to add some space there!

Any help is much appreciated! Thanks! PGT

Hi PGT,

First of all I don't understand why you have two main stylesheets? Could you not merge these into one, it would make things simpler... Well for me anyway

Anyway to your issues.

First of all the space is being caused by the following in catalog\includes\templates\yourtemplate\common\tpl_header.php, obviously this is taken from the page source but you should be able to see the php code you need to remove

<div id="logo"><a href="http://www.pastgenerationtoys.com/"><img src="includes/templates/pastgen/images/logo.gif" alt="" width="10" height="10" /></a></div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

Explanation
The image doesn't exist so IE in its wisdom is holding onto the space where it should be. As you have no left or right floats to clear (as you have already cleared them a few lines above) you don't need the clearboth or the line return so these can be removed as well.

The second issue is easier, to add a margin (space) to the top of that column simply add the following to your stylesheet.

#navColumnTwoWrapper {
margin-top:0.5em;
}

And I think that should about do it

Rufus,

Thanks!!

Issue 2 is no more! Issue one... I went the tpl _header.php file and the following code was not present:

<div id="logo"><a href="http://www.pastgenerationtoys.com/"><img src="includes/templates/pastgen/images/logo.gif" alt="" width="10" height="10" /></a></div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

Could it be a different file?




(catalog\includes\templates\yourtemplate\common\tpl _header.php)

[kobra]

The poster stated that this was taken from the source and this has been parsed to be your url ..

Did you see the <div id="logo" ???

Then it is that and the php code after that all the way to and including the clearBoth

<div id="logo"><a href="XXXXXXXXX XXX XxXX XXXXX XXXXX"><img src="xxxxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxx" alt="" width="10" height="10" /></a></div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

[PastGenToys]

No, div id="logo" nor height or any thing else was found in that file. Thats what i was trying to get across. What file should I be looking for?

First of all the space is being caused by the following in catalog\includes\templates\yourtemplate\common\tpl _header.php

[PastGenToys]

As I stated before I am not finding that code in that file. Ill check for a third time since you seem so sure.

Hi PGT,

Post your tpl _header.php file and I will highlight exactly what needs to be removed.

To be fair to Kobra this is exactly what he told you to remove, hope this helps
