Ok, so if I were to change it to fix width, do I simply replace all instances of the "width:**em" to "width:770px"? Would that do it or is there something else I would need to modify?

Thank you..

You'd need to change font sizes to px too, and basically anywhere that is sized with em's. But then you'd lose the coolness of the site looking the same even if font is resized (sideboxes run out of space, menus run out of space, etc.). Yes things are a little larger in IE... but its all relative. Your customers will probably not be comparing browser to browser side by side.

Ok, to spill the guts...The reason for this is because the LOGO I made at the top has graphics on the right side, so if it is in IE,FF..etc, the LOGO is not displayed properly as it moves to the left with a gap on the right due to it being smaller in those browsers....

Unless there is a good way to go around that, I would have no choice but to make it fix width...Dont' get me wrong, I would much rather it be liquid but LOGO is important in my case.

Thanks...

Hi jettrue!

The help you gave me last time was perfect! But I got another problem now!

My header is perfect in Mozilla Firefox but has a strange red line in IE,

see http://winkel.smileysmart-grow.nl/

How could this be? Css?( I did change some of the settings from em to px)

I would need to see the website to offer some suggestions. Also, if you upload a larger than needed image for the logo, and specify its width in em's as the original logo with the template is done, the logo will resize with the site.

That could be the read from your top and your black from the bottom showing through a little gap between the two.

In your tpl_header.php, try removing the:

<div class="clearBoth"></div>

right before:

<!--eof-branding display-->

Hi Jade

Firt of all let me thank you for the fantastic work that you done creating this template and the time spent for all of us to have a great looking site. Please let know how can I make a contribution to your effort.

But, one more question...

Where can I find a real good css colour chart? I've been using the one from somacon.com, but I would like to have more "degree" of colous in the same family. The grays are fine but on the others they go from too light to too dark

Thanks in advance

I tried this. None change at all.

The strange thing is the problem only occurs in IE and not in Firefox

Hi!

This is kind of a neat color picking tool... it also can show you complimentary colors, analogic, monochromatic, etc.

As for a donation, its really not required, but thanks. Instead make a donation to zen cart if you haven't already.

So I have almost everything the way I want it and went to do a test order and I am getting this message:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: in_special_checkout() in /homepages/26/d164447903/htdocs/includes/templates/apple_zen/templates/tpl_checkout_payment_default.php on line 50

I opened up tpl_checkout_payment_default.php and on line 50 I have this:


49 <?php // ** BEGIN PAYPAL EXPRESS CHECKOUT **
50 if (!$payment_modules->in_special_checkout()) {
51 // ** END PAYPAL EXPRESS CHECKOUT ** ?>

Anybody know what I can do to make this go away? I do not take paypal if that's any clue only credit cards.

Any help would be much appreciated!!

What version of zen cart are you using? In the readme.txt, I give instructions for people who are using a version prior to 1.3.7. That message leads me to believe that you aren't using 1.3.7.
