Comstock Template

[clydejones]

If you go to my work in progress site.

http://www.thedancinggecko.com/shop

and then look at the words "New Products for September". Only in Explorer the bottom of the words are cut off. Such as the 'p' in September.

If you click on my category called supplies you will see that all of the 'p's' and the 'y' are cut off.

Again , only in Explorer, Fox and the new Chrome are fine.

Do I need to enlarge the gray box. if so How?

Thanks

Looks fine in IE7

if you mean IE6 Then add the following to the included ie_stylesheet.css

.centerBoxHeading {
margin: 0;
height: 26px;
}

You'll need to adjust the height until it looks right.

Thanks for the reply.

Both my wife and I are using IE7 and it is cut off. Hmmmmm

Anyway I will play with the numbers and see what happens.

I don't plan to make too many changes as this is waaaay over my head.....

"Honey, I have some jewelry that I would like to sell..."

"Sure, I have seen some free shopping carts......."

But it at least keeps the cobwebs from forming.....

And Clyde, I must say that I tried a few other templates and yours is one of the best! I like the looks (If I don't mess it up too bad) and the layout.

And then to top it off, you come right back with a answer to my question!!!!

Thanks! I am sure that I will have a few more ??'s but hope to not be to much of a pest.

I always test my templates in FF IE7 Safari and Opera and now with Chrome

Make sure you clear your browser cache.

As I said (at least when I checked) everything looked fine.

My menu categories are not showing at the top, despite my having enabled the category tabs in admin - config- layout.

Is there a special thing I need to do with comstock to have them show?

From the readme_comstock_template.txt file

STYLESHEET SETTINGS:

The top horizontal category navigation, and the footer IP address are set to display none by default.
To use comment out this declaration:

#navCatTabsWrapper {
display: none;
}
#siteinfoIP {
display: none;
}

and un-comment the following declarations:

/* #navCatTabsWrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
   background: url(../images/navbar.gif) repeat-x;
	font-weight: bold;
	color: #ffffff;
	}*/

Thanks so much!

Thanks so much!

Nope, didn't work. Any other ideas?

[clydejones]

Those settings in the stylesheet are the only thing that keeps them from showing - that is unless you have turned it off in admin

admin -> configuration -> layout settings -> Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF

or open includes/templates/comstock/common/tpl_header.php

find the following section and make sure it isn't commented out

<!--bof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->
<?php require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_categories_tabs.php'); ?>
<!--eof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->

Nope, everything is fine in that file. Oh well. I like this template too much to care if I can't have it. The side menu will have to do.

Can you post this section of code from your copy of tpl_header.php
