    Default side box heading font size

    When I have something in the shopping cart- the shopping cart appears as expected in a box on the right side but the font is much larger than the rest of the boxes. The search heading appears to be a little larger as well. I have played around with the css by changing sidebox font sizes but the shopping cart title and the Search title are proportionately larger. I know that it is in this css somewhere but after searching the forums and changing everything that looks like a font size I am still at a loss. My Categories, Information and More Information are at the correct size. Any suggestions?

    I believe these titles are a "label" type element, so can be affected by different declarations than the rest of the sidebox titles.

    You might try adding
    , .leftBoxHeading label, .rightBoxHeading label
    to the

    .leftBoxHeading, .rightBoxHeading {}

    declaration and see if that brings the display into line.

    I tried to add that statement after .rightBoxHeading but it did not seem to do anything except mess up the side box heading graphic a little. I don't understand why just the Shopping cart heading font has a different size. There must be some statement somewhere that effects just the font for the shopping cart heading.

    No, there is a declaration that affects all labels (including the shopping cart header). Search your stylesheet for "label" and find out exactly what it does. You may need to make a separate declaration for
    .leftBoxHeading label, .rightBoxHeading label {}
    which reverses or nullifies the generic label declaration.

    Default Re: side box heading font size

    I added:

    .rightboxHeading label, .leftBoxHeading label {
    font-size: 1.2em;
    color: #000000
    font-weight: bold;
    }
    With this I can only effect the heading in the Search Box.

    I am able to control The heading for the Information box, the More Information box and the categories box by adjusting the statements in:
    h3.leftBoxHeading, h3.leftBoxHeading a,
    h3.rightBoxHeading, h3.rightBoxHeading a {
    font-size: 2.0em;
    color: #000000;
    }
    I have to make the font 2.O to equal the size of the heading in the Search Box.
    However- what ever size I make the Font for these boxes, the heading for the Shopping cart box is proportionately larger. (almost but not quite double)
    How can I control the Heading on the Shopping cart by itself. Where in this code does it tell the Shopping cart label to be 1.7 times (or however larger it is) larger than the type in the other boxes.
    This is really complicated and arcane. I can't seem to grasp what the H3.leftboxHeading statement means in all this.
    It shouldn't be that hard to control the size of the fonts to be the same on all the boxes. (maybee it isn't but that's why I'm here)
    Thanks for your help.

    The shopping cart sidebox heading is actually a link, not a label (some others are labels).

    h3#shoppingcartHeading a {font-size: .8em;}

    will control this. Adjust to taste. Repeat for other box headings; if they take the same size adjustment, you can combine the selectors (comma-separated) into one declaration.
