Making Text Changes to Shopping_Cart.php

[traytray]

I am trying to add some text under the heading "Your Shopping Cart Contents" and if I add it to the title, I have very little control over the look of the font. I want it normal, not bold, not italic.

I feel I should be able to add the text and the control I want to the define('TEXT_INFORMATION', but nothing shows up when I add to that spot, and if I add any more quotes, it just kind of breaks the page.

So this is what I have now:

define('NAVBAR_TITLE', 'The Shopping Cart');
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'Your Shopping Cart Contents'<br/><br/>

<font face="verdana, geneva, sans-serif" size="1" color="#444443" style="normal">

'Ready to check out?<br /><br />

The simplest Checkout method is obtained by clicking the <font color="#ed3a84">Go To Checkout</font> button below, and then following the prompts to continue checking out.<br /><br />

Pay with PayPal or a credit/debit card. You don’t need a PayPal account in order to use their safe service!'<br />


define('HEADING_TITLE_EMPTY', 'Your Shopping Cart');
define('TEXT_INFORMATION',

and this is the result. Suggestions?

actually this line says:

define('TEXT_INFORMATION',' ');

actually this line says:

define('TEXT_INFORMATION',' ');

Right now it looks like this, and when I add the quote as you show it, or any text, it doesn't show up or the page doesn't open:


define('HEADING_TITLE_EMPTY', 'Your Shopping Cart');
define('TEXT_INFORMATION',
define('TABLE_HEADING_REMOVE', 'Remove');
define('TABLE_HEADING_QUANTITY', 'Qty.');
define('TABLE_HEADING_MODEL', 'Model');
define('TABLE_HEADING_PRICE','Unit');
define('TEXT_CART_EMPTY', 'Your Shopping Cart is empty.');
define('SUB_TITLE_SUB_TOTAL', 'Sub-Total:');
define('SUB_TITLE_TOTAL', 'Total:');

You can't remove a define value without leaving the single quotes. It should look like this now;

define('TEXT_INFORMATION', ''); That's two single quotes, not a regular quotation mark.

If you want to add text, define('TEXT_INFORMATION', 'Your Text Here');

When I add text to that spot, between the quote marks, I cannot get the page to load at all.

Hi steve,

I do not know why her copy has the text in the file like that. I have also sent her a copy of what my text editor sees as well as the fact that I know it does not look like that cause I had to upload a pristine copy to make it not give the blank page loading (which is caused by the file if she uploads it again that way).

I personally have entered her text that right now is in the header title section of the page ----I have entered it, changed it to something totally different and saved it then uploaded it to the server to no avail.

I know that it should appear when entered there cause it is the same file I too used in my own store but not her store...IT refuses to be seen on her shopping cart page.

Any ideas why it would be prevented from being seen?

I will look through the stylesheet to see if there is something there set to not display that section but I don't think so, please let me know what you think.

If you mean you're seeing a blank page, check your /logs or /cache folder for error log files.

I had the exact same problem. Wouldn't let me add text between the quote marks at define('TEXT_INFORMATION', '') However I think I know what the issue is and it now works for me, basically DO NOT use apostrophes in the text so change the words e.g don't to do not etc.

Yes, unescaped apostrophes will kill a page. You can use apostrophes in a define if you escape them with a backslash \, like don\'t.
