Guest vrakas Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Please put back the copyright at the bottom. If you wish of this to be removed then you can purchase a license. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markscarts Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I can see two simple problems with the code you are using. Vrakas has pointed out, you are breaking the free use license by having removed the copyright information. Please replace it or purchase a CubeCart license.

Guest D2West Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 As I replied in the email... I was messing with index.tpl and occasionally my footer dissapeared. I need to know how to place the copyright back in, as I did not even know it was removed. I would not break the TOS for something so silly, please help.

Guest D2West Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I fixed it now, was a simple mistake the body tag was not in tact. Can I get help with the cursor now? */* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Thanks for correcting this I noticed you have a hand allready as a cursor on your site, cant you trace this code and replace the icon only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markscarts Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 cool well you don't need quote marks for the url, just type it in the parentheses w/o single of double quotes, and you should use a .cur or a .ani image for the cursor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest D2West Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Okay do I need to just save it as a .ani or .cur? vrakas= i dont know how to trace it Or do i need to convert the image? Okay I did that and the line is (http://kb-d2.com/cursor/cursor.cur) still not workin */* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest D2West Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 someone.. please.. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markscarts Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 In answer to your last question, I don't think you can just rename an image that is foramatted as GIF JPEG or PNG But I can't tell you how to create a .cur properly, you need to search the web with google for more information on this. This is not a CubeCart issue. If I were going to do as you plan to do, I would search the web for information and tutorials on replacing the cursor image. I cannot give you any direct links in thnis forum, but I can tell you that w3schools tutorials on legitimate CSS properties is where I usually start, check w3schools.com/css/pr_class_cursor.asp Try the following search on google: cursor css Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I just gave it a try and did this here Added to the index.tpl file under skins/yourskin/styletemplates/global/ in the head section <style> <!-- BODY{ CURSOR: url(cursor1.cur); } --> </style> then i added the cursor to the file and works. There might be a better solution but try this if you wish after you make a backup :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markscarts Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 :D Works but for IE only. If the original poster would be willing to simply find a pre-made image on the internet, his job would be that easy. I think he wants to convert a custom .gif to a .cur - and this can probably be done with some free program; just search the web and I'm sure you can do it I try to shun the bling-bling that is not cross-browser compatible. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest D2West Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hmm... maybe I will look for another cursor then. Thanks vrakas for the code Thanks mark for the input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest D2West Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I got a cursor editing program. I converted it to .cur... Hehe still not working. I put the cursor image in "skins/yourskin/styletemplates/global/" I also edited the HEADER code like vrakas. Hmm... >_<. Lol. What to do now . I am ok with it to be only viewable in IE.

Guest D2West Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Okay I did it! www.kb-d2.com/en/store check it out all, make sure you look in IE For those of you who want to follow in my footsteps with a custom cursor I will explain here . Go to your index.tpl /public_html/en/store/skins/YOURSKIN/styleTemplates/global/index.tpl Edit index.tpl You will then put this code into the header of that file <style> <!-- BODY{ CURSOR: url('direct url to your cursor'); } --> </style> You must upload your cursor to your hosting. If you put the image in a folder named "cursor" then you would edit it like so: CURSOR: url('http://yoursite.com/cursor/cursor.cur') To convert a jpeg/gif whatever to cursor you can use a program like... Realworld Cursor Editor It is free and easy to use. I hope you all have less problems than I did! Hehe, Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 @MarksCarts I noticed it wouldnt work with FF but forgot to edit my post At least i know the code works with IE and D2West used it and got it working @D2West You requested this and i put it together for you You got it working at the end, well done :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
