specials - new, 3 per column display drops 3rd div

Hi all,
Thanks for reading.
Getting a good bit of help here on the side with the upgrade from 1.3.7 to 1.3.8.
Still we're :frusty: trying to get the 3 specials or new products per row to display properly.

Heres a link http://www.12volt-travel.com/test/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1

If you think you know whats wrong here, we'd sure like to hear it!

Thanks,
John

Re: specials - new, 3 per column display drops 3rd div

Okay, Got that worked out simply by removing the border-left from .centerBoxContentsNew and . centerBoxContentsSpecials
and then just gave #whatsNew and #specialsDefault a thin solid border.
And! It looks great in firefox & IE7! (not sure about IE6 I dont have it)

New issue, categories with no subcategories or in product listing index if there are less than 3 products for either box to display it gets ugly.

Example link

How is this controlled?

Thanks,
John

Re: specials - new, 3 per column display drops 3rd div

Okay, Its really not working out so well.

lets break it down this way. . .
specialsListBoxContents displayed in specialsListing looks fine in fire fox and IE7
http://www.12volt-travel.com/test/index.php?main_page=specials

centerBoxContentsSpecials in specialsDefault looks fine in firefox but not IE7.

When you look at the way it breaks in IE7, you will see that there seems to be not enough space for the third product to be displayed on the same row.

Try to play with the width setting.

I no longer provide installation support on forum for all my modules. However, if there are real bugs with the modules please feel free to contact me

Re: specials - new, 3 per column display drops 3rd div

Its said that the width of centerBoxContentsSpecials in previous zc versions could be controlled with the .css.

Ya dont seem to be able to do that any more. From what I've seen it looks to be based on the products per row on a floor of 100% which the floor is divided between the amount of products you selected for the rows.

Not sure if Im waaaaaaayyyyyyy off or not or if that really makes any sense at all. Way too many hours into this.

Please let me know if I am wrong for sure. Maybe even a way to go about playing with the width.

Thanks,
John

Re: specials - new, 3 per column display drops 3rd div

Okay Okay Okay,

If you add a border-left or border-right or border to centerBoxContentsNew or centerBoxContentsSpecials . . . .

This border will sit on the outsite of the automatic percentage given to the centerBoxContentsNew or centerBoxContentsSpecials and make them toooooo wide!

This is probably the same for featured and upcoming too.

THanks,

John
