You would want to move the code that generates the home/login to inside the navAccount div, wherever that code is. You would probably want to trim some of the functionality, as there will now be duplicate account links there when a customer is logged in (unless that has already been done - I didn't make a test account to find out).

The current #navAccount has a background gif to make the bordered box with rounded corner; that will not fit more links, and with modern browsers you can probably switch that box generation to pure CSS, like this:

#navAccount {border:1px solid #112233; border-top-left-radius: 9px; background-color:#aabbcc;}

The worst that could happen is that the rounded corner squares off in older browsers.

Hi gjh42 I'm not worried about the #nav account background I can sort that, but Ive been staring and altering this code I've totally lost the plot
here's my tpl_header file as I'm lost now

Put this section from the original nav:

<li><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'; ?><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a></li>
<?php if ($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a></li>
<?php
} else {
if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a></li>
<?php } } ?>

<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a></li>
<?php }?>

into the navAccount section at the marker:

<!--bof-navigation display-->

<div id="navAccountWrapper">
<div id="navAccount">
<ul class="back">

--->insert main nav code here

<li class="contact"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT; ?></a></li>
<li class="account"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li>
<li class="shop"><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>

You can add
class="homeLink"
or the like to the relocated <li> tags similar to the ones currently in the navAccount section, if you want, for styling hooks.

Hi gjh42 Thanks for your help I've decided to use ezpage links I know you can slap me but hay I've learned something so not a complete waste just have sort out the blank space left by some of the links but thats css and I've got quiet good at that thaks again

[gjh42]

I like the ez-page menus... Do be aware that they won't switch login/logout links the way the original code does. I actually posted a code fix for that for someone yesterday, if you want to have that functionality.

will it work with this setup
http://www.rvsolarsystems.co.uk/shop/index.php this is a work in progress to test zen 1.5
also is there a way of checking that I haven't created any errors by deleting code form the tpl.header file
Cheers peter
