    Default A Moder Zen Template. How to edit the main page scroll box?

    On the main page of the "A Modern Zen" template, there is a box that scrolls through the products near the top.of the page (I don't know what that box is called)

    On the left side is the picture of the product. To the right of that is a title of the product, below that a price, then below that "read more".

    I need to move the tile, price, "read more" a little to the left for 2 reasons: 1) too much space between the picture and the text. 2) I would like to type a longer title without it wrapping around.

    Second: When filling in the description of the product the text starts to go outside the box on the right side. It needs to wrap sooner or be moved to the left to keep the text from going outside the box.

    Third: I would like to be able to add more than one line of description, say a short paragraph, then have the "read more" for detailed info.

    In short, where do I go to edit this box for these parameters, and exactly what should I edit?

    Thank you for your help
    Bill

    A link to your site would assist in getting responses

    Place spaces in it to prevent it being indexed by Google as in

    refresh until you see the red 1956 Johnson 7 1/2 hp. That is the best example

    In stylesheet_slider.css, find this rule and reduce the padding-left:

    #featured1 .ui-tabs-panel .info {
    background: url("../images/transparent-bg.png") repeat-y scroll 0 0 transparent;
    bottom: 11px;
    font-family: sans-serif;
    height: 296px;
    left: 246px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding-left: 120px;
    position: absolute;
    width: 235px;
    }


    Your current text example is not wrapping because there are no spaces in it to break on. Use normal words with spacing and see what happens.

    Thanks G, but I can't find the stylesheet_slider.css file. I went into developers tool kit and did a search with no results.
    can you narrow down where this file is?

    Thank you
