Support Thread - Responsive Color Changes for 155

[dbltoe]

Translucence is often misused when talking about transparency. Transparency is generally associated with clear. The more correct term for how well you can "see" through something is opacity.

Where you may be confused is that, in order to have 20% opacity in the #FFFFFF, the 33 is added at the beginning rather than at the end AND the result should be eight (8) versus six (6) characters. Had you entered #33FFFFFF, it would have worked IF your browser supported it.

It is the old method and doesn't give the non-compatible browser any alternative. Another reason for the dual calls in the css.

Mentioned it in an earlier thread but, http://tinyurl.com/y929h5f6 is a good read. Especially near the end of the article. Click on View Demo just before the Conclusion.

My browser must not support it because that's how I had it originally, with 33 in front.

Fabulous article, hit the nail right on the head. And the demo was highly cool, thanks!

Will this work with version 155e & 155f?

I've loaded it on all the 1.5.5 series and current github files for1.5.6. All work.

Will be looking at github files for 1.6.0 later this week.

Remember that we suggest loading the current ZC, use Clone a Template to make the template "yours", then load the mod to YOUR_TEMPLATE. That way, you always have the responsive_classic to fall back on if something breaks.

Thank you so much.

Just getting started with ZenCart. So far I like it much better than the old osCommerce, not that I was very good with that.

Again thank you for the quick reply, add-on and guidance.

No Problem. Got lots of relatives in the Keene, W Swanzey area. You'll find that, unlike other forums, the folks here at Zen Cart really are like family and want to help. That's one of the things that brought me here from OsC some 14 years ago.

Years ago the osc forum was a bit more friendly/family like but it seemed to change.

So far searching the forum here it does give a nice family feel, glad to be here.

Moved from CT to NH in 2000. Wife and I lived in Keene for about a 1 1/2 years, to much like city in CT. Moved 3 1/2 hours north where it's quite and rural.

Hello,

I installed the color changer 1.1a to test zencart build @ www.salvagecrate.com. I noticed in the CSS checker I get 1 error.

Sorry! We found the following errors (1)
URI : http://www.salvagecrate.com/includes...stylesheet.css
291 #filter-wrapper select

Is this normal ? Or did i mess something up ? This is not my live site , i am just trying to get ready before i try this on the main site.

I used https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

Should I even worry about this ? I noticed some big name sites like ebay and amazon give tons of errors too and they work just fine.



I love what you said in the photo about btw. I have it as a reminder so i keep to whats important. I saw what you said about css errors and just wanted to make sure I had none.

My actual site is http://missingcord.com. As you can see instead of trying to spend all day trying to make it pretty , I just used the default color for responsive classic and made my store logo colors match it.

Congratulations, you have now created 21+ stylesheet errors that could really screw up the way a browser presents your site to the world. IF it shows it at all!

I was asked in this thread about these 21+ stylesheet errors.
Where could you see them as errors?

I checked in all browsers and a few mobil devices https://www.idtagsonline.com/test/ colors appear are normal.

Thank you.

@jasonshanks. It looks like you made an addition in that area and might have missed something when doing a copy and paste.
Although the line numbers are different, the line 291 in your stylesheet.css

#filter-wrapper select{width5%;height:35px;}

should be

#filter-wrapper select{width:5%;height:35px;}

Note the missing colon.
