Apple Zen Support Thread

[jettrue]

anybody help me with this please... thankz a lot!

It looks like you got the logo working. Now to change the sidebox background from grey to blue, you have to change the image includes/templates/apple_zen/images/content_bg.gif

You have to change the grey to blue there, and re-upload it.

Am getting a few CSS errors in FireFox (v2.0.0.12) using 'Error Console'
I can get some info and line# to see where its coming from but cant
(knowledge failure ) figure out the case.

have a looksy at the file, error msg then the code at that line #;

file=stylesheet.css
"Error in Parsing value for property 'display. Declaration dropped.'"

.clearfix {display: inline-block;}

Dreamweaver tags 'inline-block' as a code error also


file=stylesheet_header_menu.css
"Uknown property 'behavior'. Declaration dropped."

body {  
	behavior: url(includes/csshover.htc);
	}

verified that csshover is in /includes/csshover.htc

anyone have any idea on this?

These can just be ignored.

Thank you so much for all the help! I made some progress; however, I still have 2 grey bars on either side I would like to get rid of!

I also printed out the w3c css validator errors for the site....I'm not sure I will understand any of it or how to fix it though, but I will definately look through it.

We will also check out the other browsers...never thought of that.

Thanks for the help!

Hallo jettrue, thanks for your help

Here is the link: www.lamorhada.com/catalog
As I said, I found the pulldown menu moved to right in internet explorer...

I have been testing and looks as if in internet explorer the navigation heather where categopries drop down is floating to the right.....

I have been looking in the suport forum and found that the problem could have been in stilesheet.php where the size of the heather should be 100% an not 71 em.... I chec hed and this looked to be allright.

Maby I have been changing somenthing in stilesheet and I can solve it By replaicing with the original... Thanks for any idea

Hello, jettrue, I'm also having a problem with Internet Explorer.

When I turn off category tabs (Admin > configuration > layout settings > Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF > off), in IE7 not only does the category-tabs list disappear but also the applezen drop menu. However, the dropdown remains in Firefox, which is what I want.

Then when I attempt to modify tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php by commenting out the echo...

  <li><!--?php echo $links_list[$i];?--></li>

...the apple zen drop down menu stays in Internet Explorer but moves to the top and covers the Home, Login links and the Search apparatus.

Any suggestion how to kill the category listing but keep the apple zen drop down menu so IE7 looks the same as Firefox?

FWIW, ideally, I want the drop down menu to be above the logo and the home, login links and search box.

Under normal circumstances, turning off category tabs WILL NOT turn off the drop down menu. My guess is you changed something to cause that. Re-upload the original includes/templates/apple_zen/common/tpl_header.php.

And undo that commenting of the echo you did, that isn't correct php syntax either way.

Try changing this section (remove the last */ also):

#dropMenuWrapperc {
	background:url(../images/shadowRight.png) repeat-y 100% 0;
	width:71em;
	margin:0 auto;
	position:absolute;
	height:2.18em;
	}

#dropMenuWrapperd {
	background:url(../images/shadowLeft.png) repeat-y 0 0;
	width:71em;
	margin:0 auto;
	position:absolute;
	height:2.18em;
	}
*/

to this:

#dropMenuWrapperc {
	background:url(../images/shadowRight.png) repeat-y 100% 0;
	width:71em;
	margin:0 auto;
	position:absolute;
	height:2.18em;
        left:0;
	}

#dropMenuWrapperd {
	background:url(../images/shadowLeft.png) repeat-y 0 0;
	width:71em;
	margin:0 auto;
	position:absolute;
	height:2.18em;
        left:0;
	}

Thanks for the quick reply!

Since I'm using all original files, I removed the php code entirely between the <li>tags</li>. I keep forgetting IE bonks on quickie php uncommenting. So, Voila, now IE7 shows the drop menu as it appears in Firefox. Thanks!

Still don't know why the admin panel OFF switch is affecting Internet Explorer. I'm working from both original 1.3.7.1 and original Apple Zen files as I do a proper rebuild of my site. Thus far, in addition to whatever admin panel changes I've made, the only other edits are to color, fonts, padding and margin in the CSS. That was my first edit to any core code, Apple or Cart, and unfortunately, it's the only way I can get IE7 to cooperate. C'est la vie.

Could I see a link to your site?

halo jettrude, much tanks for the code..I have been doing some testing, and looks as if on ie 5.2 on Mac the dropdown menu stays at his place but does not drop down. On ie 6 where the problem was found first time , applying your code aparently does not solve the problem. The problem disapears when I turn on "Categories-Tabs Menu" .....

So I will just leave it on for the moment.

Have a nice day.
