Strange "New Products For (Month)" problem

Hello Zen Gurus,
I am new to Zen Cart - so please be kind.
I have set up a new cart at http://www.klkreflectiveimages.com/zen/
My "New Products for (Month)" seems to be having a problem.
No matter how many colums I use or how many items I display in this area, there always seems to be 1 extra row that is out of the border of the New Products box.
On a secondary note, the font for the New Product for (Month) header has a different font. I'm totally confused about how to change this.

Any help appreciated much!

Re: Strange "New Products For (Month)" problem

Very old template stylesheet 2007/04/26 11:48:12 $;

First try switching to the classic template to verify if this is a template issue or not

If it is I suggest you locate/create an updated template

Re: Strange "New Products For (Month)" problem

Thanks for the quick reply.

You're correct, when I use the origional template, I don't see the problem with the New Products box or the font problem either.

It must be some css code that isn't compatible with older browsers. :frusty:
When I run in compatibility mode (with IE8) or just running an older version of IE, it breaks the bounding box around New Products and also uses a different font (Like a Times font).
It also looks okay in Firefox 3.5.

Any css gurus out there that know how to fix it so I can continue using this template while continuing to appeal to the masses?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: Strange "New Products For (Month)" problem

Since there's nothing about that template that's different from the 'Classic' template other than colors and some weird stuff the author did with fonts, my suggestion would be to:

a) Rename your existing stylesheet to stylesheet.old and copy the stylesheet from the classic/css folder into orange/css, then change the colors.

or (better)

b) Go here http://(sorry, site offline) and find an up-to-date template that you like

Re: Strange "New Products For (Month)" problem

Much thanks to both of you.

I went with a newer template. One that looks 100% better.
