Search box and header headache

[Guest digilution]

I have searched and tried editing various files to solve a few simple problems but have not won

I added my new header and increased the size from 116 to 154 and need some advice how to:

1. move the search box down a line or two

2. change the colour of the (search for,welcome guest,login and register)

3. My header is not quiet right....header does not touch the surrounding box line to the right Sorted

4. Need to change the inside colour of the centre box to same colour as side boxes Sorted

This is my site

I have managed to change various boxes and fonts but the above is freaking me out now.

Thanks

You'll find font colors for search and session in style.css. They are easy to find.

The color for the main box is in layout.css

.boxContent {

border-top: 1px solid #A8B4B0;

border-right: 1px solid #5E85CF;

border-bottom: 1px solid #5E85CF;

border-left: 1px solid #5E85CF;

padding: 3px;

font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 75%;

color: #333333;

background-color: #FFFFFF;

margin-bottom: 5px;

And as for the header you can play around with padding and other controls in layout.css as well.

Roban thanks for the tips.

I have managed to sort out point 2 , 3 and 4 but am stumped on point 1. I have played around with padding right and padding top in the layout , but it does not move the search box down :)

Your session text is in style.css:

.txtSession {

font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 95%;

color: #6B6B6B;

text-decoration: none;

}

a.txtSession {

font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 70%;

color: #3366CC;

text-decoration: none;

}

a.txtSession:hover {

font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 70%;

color: #F9931D;

text-decoration: underline;

and your searchbox is here:

.searchBox {

background-color: #FFFFFF;

border: 1px solid #7F9DB9;

height: 14px;

font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 11px;

color: #0E51A3;

This one is a good one for some reason its not located in the css files if you go to your skin folder and open style templates then the global folder you will need to open index.tpl and cart.tpl and do the change in both.

Look for the part that says

<divclass Topheader>

then you will see the {search} and { session} tags in there is the divs for the search box just adjust the padding variables etc to get it where u want it i think it set at 14px to start with but its just trial and error.

hope this helps :)
