Guest elvinworks Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Hope someone can help me with a little glitch... www.elvinworks.com/store/ It seems some of the title "description/headings" vanish when I either refresh a page or click a category to go to another page. You will notice especially on the home page, the "Latest Products" heading in the MIDDLE section of the page is not there, until you take your mouse and highlight it. Then it shows up as yellow text against grey background as it should be. What causes this? Thanks for your help ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest elvinworks Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Check in the pinned posts at Peekaboo Category Titles Thanks vrakas! If I would have known the 'highly-technical term' for that problem was "Peekaboo Categories", I might have looked into that! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Thats what we are hear for .............. i think LOL You are welcome ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elvinworks Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Well vrakas, I did as the instructions say, and it helped out all my subcategories to show on various pages. I still have an issue though, if you click the "homepage" tab, then look at the LOWER middle gray box (that shows "no image available"). The "Latest Items" title above the image box still does not show up. But it will if you click and drag your mouse cursor over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Glad it fixed the one issue. Try a search on the "technical term" and also try in the .org forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Latest Items" title above the image box still does not show up. But it will if you click and drag your mouse cursor over it. Here's an odd thing I just figured out with this issue. It has to do with screen resolution. When my computer is set at 1024 x 768 or higher, I encounter the issue I explained earlier. When, however... I lower screen resolution to the bottom at 800 x 600, the problem does not occur! So, what would screen resolution have to do with this? And thanks again vrakas, I will definately go check out the tech board when I have a chance. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest groovejuice Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 @elvinworks, if you add position:relative; to .txtContentTitle in your style.css that should fix the problem. I didn't know the peekaboo bug was resolution related, but with Exploder, nothing ever surprises me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest groovejuice Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 This bug is insidious as it can manifest as a broken border or invisible text. Best to use several different browsers to view your site as there is no issue with Firefox in this area. You are welcome, by the way! Glad it worked out! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I owe ya a beer vrakas and groovejuice! I've run into yet another snag, and I figure this is related to the same problem. My subcategories do not align correctly. Please view this page: elvinworks As you can see, I keep getting "blanks" where a subfolder should be! I looked all over the boards, but can't figure out what this problem would be related to. Thanks for any input! The Elf :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I dont see any blanks but they are not arranged / alligned. Backup before you do anything and try this: Open includes/content/viewCat.inc.php Find // loop results for ($i=0; $i etc etc ............... if(empty($subCategoroies[$i]['cat_image'])){ add $view_cat->assign( etc etc: // loop results for ($i=0; $i $view_cat->assign("CLASS",cellColor($i, $tdEven="tdEven", $tdOdd="tdOdd")); if(empty($subCategoroies[$i]['cat_image'])){ Open: skins/yourskin/styletemplates/content/viewCat.tpl Replace the code (including the begin and end) beginning under BEGIN: sub_cats and ending before END: sub_cats with this code <!-- BEGIN: sub_cats --> <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" colspan="2" cellpadding="3" class="tblList"> <tr> <td class="tdListTitle"><strong>Choose an category below</strong></td> <td class="tdListTitle">Â </td> </tr> <!-- BEGIN: sub_cats_loop --> <tr><td align="left" class="{CLASS}"><a href="index.php?act=viewCat&catId={TXT_LINK_CATID}" class="txtDefault"><img src="{IMG_CATEGORY}" border="0" alt="{TXT_CATEGORY}" /></a></td><td align="left" class="{CLASS}"><a href="index.php?act=viewCat&catId={TXT_LINK_CATID}" class="txtDefault"><span class="txtContentTitle">{TXT_CATEGORY}</span></a><br><br></td></tr> <!-- END: sub_cats_loop --> </table> <!-- END: sub_cats --> Let me know how it goes :sourcerer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was unsure what you were meaning for me to change on this little bit: Backup before you do anything and try this: Open includes/content/viewCat.inc.php Find // loop results for ($i=0; $i etc etc ............... if(empty($subCategoroies[$i]['cat_image'])){ add $view_cat->assign( etc etc: // loop results for ($i=0; $i $view_cat->assign("CLASS",cellColor($i, $tdEven="tdEven", $tdOdd="tdOdd")); if(empty($subCategoroies[$i]['cat_image'])){ But I did change the other ViewCat.tpl file. It seems now to list them all (categories) in a straight horizontal line. Plus, gave me a grey background. I'm really confused now.

Guest Kelvin Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Just a note, it has been mis-spelled as "postion:relative" and I copied blindly and wonder why it didn't work. heehee... So it should be "position:relative". Thanks...it works like a charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
