change font weight?

Hi

I am bust customising yet another zencart installation and I am trying to figure out how to change the font weights in various places, in particular the 'welcome guest.....' text on the home page and all the headings in the side and centre boxes - such as Home, Login, New Products for xxxxxxx. I think that these fonts are a little heavy and chunky!

Please can someone show me the way to do this before my head explodes!

I thank you all!!!

Find the class or id that applies to the element in question, and add

font-weight: normal;

or whatever to its declaration in the stylesheet. If it is not explicitly listed in the stylesheet, add a new declaration.

To find the correct class/id, you can view source and see what tag occurs just before the text output, or use the Firefox Web Developer's Information > Display Element Information button and click on the element.

Thanks Glenn - useful reply.

I managed to change the header fonts in stylesheet but I can't seem to find where to change the font weight on the "Welcome......" text. I know where to change the wording itself but not the font weight.

Any further help with this specific text would be very helpful.

Cheers

h2.greeting {font-weight: normal;}

will fix that.

Thanks again Glenn

That sorted it. :)

I can't find this. I've looked on both the includes/langauges/english/index.php file and the stylesheet.css file.

If it makes a difference, I'm using the cherry_zen style sheet.

Thanks!

You need to add this to your stylesheet.

I tried that, and it changes the wrong thing. So maybe we are talking about 2 different "welcomes" on the main page. I am wanting to change the font size & color of the "welcome" that is on the index php. I followed the directions to put in my text, but can't find where to change the style. Here's that part on the bottom of the index.php file:

/Replace this text with the headline you would like for your shop. For example: 'Welcome to My SHOP!'/
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'The place to shop for Art-o-licious Goodies');
} elseif ($category_depth == 'nested') {
// This section deals with displaying a subcategory
/Replace this line with the headline you would like for your shop. For example: 'Welcome to My SHOP!'/
define('HEADING_TITLE', 'The place to shop for Art-o-licious Goodies');
}

A link to your site would let us give the exact answer for your text.

"The place to shop for Art-o-licious Goodies" is controlled by h1#indexCategoriesHeading {}. Add that to your stylesheet if not already present and style it.

"Welcome Friend! Would you like to log yourself in?" is controlled by h2.greeting {}.

Does it matter where I add it? I'm not exactly sure which section it should go in.

I got it! :clap:
I put it in after the endwrappers, where the other headers were listed.

Thanks for your help!
