flash header not working

[barco57]

While I'm beating up on you a bit hopefully to get you to learn from your mistakes please go and resize you product images.....
Your index page had 2 product images one was 770k and the other was 774k.....why?
When you only load up 1 large image and don't resize for the medium and small you make my browser download the large image and resize them......well I read my email while waiting for them to load. Even your large images shouldn't be that large....plus when the browser has to do the resizing of such a large image it looks like crap and I can't tell what it is......

Yeah, this is my first web page since 1996. I'm learning CSS as I go here.


I'll resize those images.


Regarding the branding display...

<!--bof-branding display-->
<div id="logoWrapper">
<div id="logo"><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, HEADER_ALT_TEXT) . '</a>'; ?></div>
<?php if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '' || (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2))) { ?>
<div id="taglineWrapper">
<?php
if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '') {
?>
<div id="tagline"><?php echo HEADER_SALES_TEXT;?></div>
<?php
}
?>
<?php
if (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2)) {
if ($banner->RecordCount() > 0) {
?>
<div id="bannerTwo" class="banners"><?php echo zen_display_banner('static', $banner);?></div>
<?php
}
}
?>
</div>
<?php } // no HEADER_SALES_TEXT or SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 ?>
</div>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<!--eof-branding display-->



Are you referring to this?

[barco57]

My post #19 addresses the box near the top......the image trying to be called there 1 doesn't exist and 2 even if it did you would never get it to display with the way you were trying to call it.

my question is why would you be going to the index page in https mode anyway? The cart will switch to https when it needs to and the new products box wouldn't display on any of those pages anyway.

[nonfinite]

Images updated.


Wow, really? I had no idea zen cart did that.

I guess I can reprogram my flash to link to http://nonfinite.org/catalog then.

[barco57]

no what I mean is this section of includes/languages/english/header.php

// added defines for header alt and text
  define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', 'Powered by Zen Cart :: The Art of E-Commerce');
  define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'TagLine Here');
  define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '192px');
  define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '64px');
  define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'logo.gif');

Now this is were I assume you set that define because the code that is a problem is classed as "logo".....


oh and I checked your stylesheet again and you haven't made the fixes for calling the images relatively......doing it the way you are will throw secure error as your are trying to call images on a secure page (login, checkout,etc...) through the stylesheet by pionting to the unsecure side of the site.....when called relatively they will automatically be called secure

[nonfinite]

// added defines for header alt and text
define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', '');
define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '');
define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', 'auto');
define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', 'auto');
define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'http://www.nonfinite.org/finalbutton.swf');

That's what I'm seeing inside includes/languages/english/header.php

[barco57]

What is finalbutton.swf? I know its a flash file but you can't call it there that way.
If your not using a logo in that position then clear the http://www.nonfinite.org/finalbutton.swf leave the 2 single quotes

[nonfinite]

OK, did that.

Refreshed IE, box is still there.

[nonfinite]

is there a firebug for IE? This would make this SO Much easier...

[barco57]

clear the "auto" in the height and width in that same file.
