Text is overwriting logo

I'm having a problem getting a customer's template working properly. The header, including several clickable tabs, is quite large and the text in the side and center boxes is overwriting the tabs. I've tried everything I can think of to change this but no luck so far.

Can someone point me in the direction I need to go to fix this?

Thanks,

Jim

Re: Text is overwriting logo

<!-- bof  breadcrumb -->
    <div id="navBreadCrumb">Home
</div>
<!-- eof breadcrumb -->

Either use a break before the 'div id' line or edit your CSS to add spacing for 'navBreadCrumb'.

Re: Text is overwriting logo

Okay, putting four breaks before the left and right sideboxes and two before the breadcrumbs in my custom template's tpl_main_page.php got that spacing taken care of. Using a transparent gif (spacer.gif of the right height and width) may have been more elegant.

Adding a "margin-top" statement in the #navBreadCrumbs definition in stylesheet.css didn't do anything.

Now, another question: If you look closely in the middle of the "About Us" hanging tag there's a link to the "Signs" page. The page source gives the following instructions:

<!--bof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->
<div id="navCatTabsWrapper">
<div id="navCatTabs">
<ul>
  <li><a class="category-top" href="http://blackwaterfolkart.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1">Signs</a> </li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<!--eof-optional categories tabs navigation display-->
```but I can't find the "navCatTabs" id anywhere in the tpl_header.php or tpl_main_page.php files. Any thoughts about where I can find and disable this code?

Thanks,

Jim

Okay, I found the "Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF" setting in the Layout Setting menu under Admin. That takes care of everything but a single green line running through the hanging tabs. Looks like a 1 pixel margin or border somewhere.

Thanks, all!

Looked but did not see what you described.

The optional cat tabs are swithcable in the admin > config > layout settings > Categories-Tabs Menu ON/OFF

Re: Text is overwriting logo

Got the optional category tabs fixed so you wouldn't have seen that. Now I've managed to do something to wipe out everything in the body of the html source. Didn't think I'd changed -- or uploaded -- anything but stylesheet.css to my template file. Guess I'll try going back to the green template and see if that works.
