Categories box moves when Subcategories are added

My website link is https://www.desertskyink.net. When you click on Brother and test1, test2, test3 subcategories, the categories box moves way to the right. How can I keep it to the left as it is on the home page?

Go into Admin-Configuration-Layout Settings;

`Check your pixel values of the left/right column widths. I suspect there is a value of 0px(zero) on the left one.

That was the problem....thanks!!

That did work great, but now when a person clicks on one of the categories or subcategories, the bottom line separator touches the Information Box. Is there a setting that would give padding between the two?

Also, it looks like the 'New Products' box goes away the further I go into the category selections, that is why it is touching, but I was wondering how I can avoid this and leave some space between the Information box and the green line separator.

You're welcome, glad to hear all is good now.

`I think I know what you're talking about, you need a bump-stop installed. :laugh:

Find in your stylesheet.css;

.leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
	margin: 0em;
    border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
    border-bottom: 5px solid #027c29;
	margin-top: 1.5em;
	}

Replace with;

 .leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
	margin: 0em;
        border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
        border-bottom: 5px solid #027c29;
	margin-top: 1.5em;    
        margin-bottom: 1.5em;
        }  

So, now you will have an equal margin bottom as top. You can lower the value if you wish.

Thank you again....that worked great!!

One more question if you don't mind....I'm trying to upload images and it seems to not be working. On my website I get no_picture.gif instead of the image that is supposed to display. I have tried to upload the image and that didn't work, and then I tried to put in the URL via the Admin console and set all directories and subdirectories to 777, but it still won't work. I have noticed other posts out there for people having the same problem, but have seen no solutions. I am using Zen 1.3.5. Thx, so far you have been a huge help.

You're welcome and no, I don't mind. Which pictures? I get only one report of your header_bg being broken.

The pictures for my products. I tried to upload them and also tried to put in the URL when I added products under 'Categories', but when I click on the product pictures, it shows the no_picture.gif. It seems it happened since I upgraded to 1.3.5.

Did you check the actual pic URL's in your browser? I'm not receiving any broken images other than your header_bg and speaking of which... your layout is somewhat broke in IE7;

In your stylesheet;

#logoWrapper{
    background-image: url(../images/header_bg.jpg);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-color: #ffffff;
    height:0px;
    margin-bottom: 1.5em;
}

You declared the height to be nil, but your floating logo and tagline get squished and I'm not sure what's up with the bottom margin... odd how Firefox doesn't mind. I guess it's more compliant, but really it's just not right not to show the aftermath. :unsure:

If you go to the website and look at New Products For October, you will notice that it says 'No Picture Available'. Under Categories in the Admin console you can add pictures of your products. I tried to upload pictures but nothing happens. I also tried to place my images in images/hewlett_packard (for example) and nothing happens. It keeps defaulting to the no_picture.gif. I'm just wondering if the upgrade broke something. Any ideas?

When I click on the picture I get the following -- http://desertskyink.net/images/no_picture.gif, and no matter what URL I associate with the picture (or upload a picture), it doesn't seem to matter. It always defaults to the no_picture.gif. By the way I renamed the header_bg.jpg so it would not show up at all. I am experimenting with different things, but my main concern is getting the product pictures to show up.

So wierd, it's reporting broken images now. From one of your product descriptions, can you give me the actual image name and the corresponding folder that it's supposed to be in?

Whether or not this has to do with folder permissions or not, I came across this; the properties of the images don't have a file extension, ie. http://desertskyink.net/images/

Here is the path for the C6578AN product -- https://www.desertskyink.net/images/hewlett_packard/C6578AN.gif. In the 'catalog' section of the Admin console, this is what I have in the URL section with the http:// as it says, but it still won't display the product .gif. If you paste the above URL into a browser, you can see the picture. It's driving me crazy!! Any ideas would be much, much appreciated. You're batting 1000% so far!

Hmmm... strange once again. I can't view that image, I get a 404 - File not found. Maybe, you are able to view the image due to the image being browser cached.

For a test, check your main "image" folder and following subfolder permissions from FTP to your host's control panel and see if it matches. I'm thinking it's a permissions problem or .htaccess incompatibility with your host. If you can verify the actual image is in the "images/hewlett_packard" folder, download it to your desktop and see if it opens... if that's the case, then an online problem is killing the image.

Nay, I just checked the product listing pages and it seems that the product image has assumed the position of an additional image, while the main image/pop up have no images. I'm not sure what happened. How much of the main product page how you modified? It looks way different than my stock page. Maybe, if I have more time... I'll peek at your source code.

As far as that previously supplied image link, a forced .jpg works... it seems there isn't a .gif format available for that product image link. I'm not sure what's going on now. :wacko:

Oh, I guess this is under investigation here;

Sorry, the link is https://www.desertskyink.net/images/hewlett_packard/C6578A.gif. I can try to point that at a JPG to see if it works, but I don't the the upload feature is working in 1.3.5 for uploading product images.

I still can't get this to work....any ideas?
