Uh oh. How do I fix this....

I couldn't get the green bar behind the zencart logo to change to this color that I specified. It is my background color that I want to use. I had no problem changing it on my "test site," but it stays GREE on my primary project site.

Thinking I could fix this logowrapper problem, I went to the logowrapper rules in the css and commented out the first two lines:

#logoWrapper{
background-image: url(../images/header_bg.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #483DAB;
height:75px;
}

It made a HUGE mess, so I immediately put everything back where it was. I want the stripe to be #483DAB (a dark blue) but right now I just want to get things back where they were.

It's screwed up. Reloading the page with a brand new CSS sheet doesn't make any difference.

How do I fix this mess?
How do I make the green logowrapper be blue, like I want it?

:blink:

Re: Uh oh. How do I fix this....

The background-image and the background-repeat are the two lines I removed, and everything went haywire. I guess I need those.

But now that they're back in, it still stays screwed up.

I know that was dumb, but I thought it was no big deal. I intend to do that 100 more times, until I figure out what look I'm trying to obtain.

But if you put the stylesheet back the way it was, why won't it go back to where it was?

I had this same problem a couple of days ago regarding layout boxes. Well, you have to reset those. I can understand that. What do I reset now? This is some lines I took out. But I put them back!

Is there a guide for all the reset things that necessary out there when you change your CSS?

If there is a separate reset function for every line of CSS change that you do, I may rethink my plan to experiment 100 more times. I thought CSS changes would make it simple......?

And then, assuming I can fix the site back to where it was....How do I change the green bar behind the logo? I changed it on my experimental site easy enough.....

Re: Uh oh. How do I fix this....

I switched default templates, and it went back to normal. Then I switched back to my override template and it was all screwed up again.

So, something needs to be reset, or something, regarding the override template.

This probably one of those simple things, and I hate to bug you guys about it. I'll read some more stuff on here.....

But I screwed up something on the override template. If anyone wants to point me to what I need to be fixing.....thx

Re: Uh oh. How do I fix this....

Delete the CSS file on the Server for your override template.
Upload your corrected copy.
Reload your page and Refresh it.

If still having problem we would need URL for viewing.

Re: Uh oh. How do I fix this....

That put everything back. I just learned something: If there's a problem with a stylesheet, working on THAT copy may need to be eliminated. Just start over....

I'll try not bug you guys about simple CSS junk.
