Font size wont change

Hey guys and gals!
I built my site about 2 years ago so my recollection might not be that great.

I am pretty sure I used the style sheet to make the font bigger in featured products (which is now on the home page, https://www.midwestnotebooks.com using

.centerBoxContentsFeatured {font-size: 1.6em;}

I dont remember why I made it so larger but when I change 1.6 either up or down it does not change the font size.

Am I remembering it wrong? Am I in the wrong area?

What can I do to make the font a little smaller?

Thanks in advance!!

Re: Font size wont change

Zencart loads all stylesheets beginning with 'style' and using the css extension that are in the current template's css folder. You have three stylesheets that are fighting each other. Choose one, and delete or move the others to another folder. Then edit the fon't-size you mentioned.

Thanks very much!

That is exactly what was going on.

Is this the section that operates like this?

Did you use Firefox plugin to know that I had three stylesheets?

Yes. I used the Web Developer plugin for Firefox.

Even though you can, in some cases, get away with the .bak extension, depending on the programming language, it's a good idea to get into the habit of moving unused files somewhere other than the folder containing the active file.

Re: Font size wont change

Thanks.

This site was my first time building one so my structure is very poor.

It is unlikely I will be able to upgrade my zen version without losing stuff.

My next release will be built from the ground up with the newest version and I will be able to use everything I learned hear to built it right the first time.

Re: Font size wont change

Thanks,
If you dont mind I got another question.

My header used to be just an image, I changed it with links and facebook like and twitter follow.

Used to be able to adjust the size of the header in the stylesheet here:
#headerpic {
position: relative;
background: url("../images/hd.jpg");
background-repeat: no-repeat;
height: 70px;
width: 950px;
}

When I change the height from 70px nothing seems to happen.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
