jScroller Sidebox Package Support Thread

I've read this thread, checked max values, checked my php's in both folders, all the files are there but I can't get the What's New sidebox (or others) to scroll. Then I moved the site to another server, and the scrolling works! Strange!!

Using FireBug I see that the styles from style_jscroller.css are not being applied on the non-scrolling site. I re-uploaded this file again, but still no dice? Help! :cry:

Are you getting any error messages on the site that's not working?

None at all. That's the strange thing. Do you think it might have something to do with my host? (Lunarpages). B/c I followed the Zen instructions to move the site over (so I can have a DEV and a PROD site) and then the scroller started working as a side effect!

Not sure but you might want to check with them.

If its working on one it should be working on the other.

I think the stylesheet not loading means a line is missing somewhere, but I can't see it! Thanks for the quick replies though.

On the problem site this is what I get when I try to view the jscroller_stylesheet.css

<H1>Forbidden</H1> You don't have permission to access /kimdoly/includes/templates/template_kim10/css/style_jscroller.css on this server.<P> <P>Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

FIXED!! Thanks so much, Clyde! Every file jscroller file had the wrong permissions (no global Read) so I did CHMOD's. But my FTP wouldn't allow me to CHMOD a couple so I re-uploaded those (and still had to CHMOD, strange).

Can you tell me what you used to find those errors? Thanks again! :clap:

Has a handy tool for viewing or editing your stylesheets on the fly

That gives you that error report? I'm using FireBug which is great, but not sure how you got those error messages.

Renz:

... my problem is the best sellers box is not in the center at least I think thats the reason it cuts the image. The other boxes seem fine.

I have this problem also. I changed the style_jscroller.css as follows:

.scroller_container { 
margin:0 auto;
 position: relative;
 height: 120px;
 width: 150px;
 overflow: hidden;
 text-align: left;
}
```and the images are no longer cropped.
