Can't get the Center Column Background Image to Fill Page

Hi,

I've been trying to figure this out forever. I'm working on Zen Cart 1.3.8 and have made a lot of customizations within the stylesheet but there are a few things I can't seem to figure out.

  1. I have a picture that I would like to fill the entire background of the center column - currently the picture is cut off in the middle and there is white space to the right of it.

I have changed the sidebox container sizes and added height to create a column on the right side (you can see this at my test site https://www.materialapparel.com/cart). Is this causing the problems?

  1. Also, when I change pages (for instance click on tops, etc.) the length of the page is longer than the sidebox container columns and therefore leaves white space at the bottom. Is there any way to get the columns to just automatically fill the entire space (from Cat. Tabs to footer?)

  2. One more :) Sorry! Is there any way that I can just remove select links from the category tabs bar at the top? I can't seem to find that any where either.

Your help is greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!

-Kristina

Re: Can't get the Center Column Background Image to Fill Page

  1. Your image is 624px wide. and your sideboxes total 450px for a total of 1074 px, so on my 1280 width monitor, I'm going to see 206px worth of white. Instead of setting the mainWrapper width to 100%, try a certain number of px.

  2. Far as I know, the navCatTabs at the top can only show all categories.

Re: Can't get the Center Column Background Image to Fill Page

Hi,

Thank you for your reply - I understand about the width but the picture will only load about 1/4 of the way vertically. I've tried everything including changing sizes, reloading everything. Is there something that I'm missing? Why won't it show the entire picture?

Your help is greatly appreciated! THank you!
