    Almost fixed

    Thanks Louise,

    Before your recent reply I started looking for the <br> tag, but was looking in all the wrong places - silverback stylesheet, main stylesheet and many other areas of code. Found it this morning at line 41 in 'full width header and 2 sidebars'.

    First I removed the <br> which worked, but the account login text, if someone's logged in will push the center down so I went back and removed::

    NowServingCurrentAccountMyAccountLogoutSimple

    If someone's logged in they can still access their info from the top of homepage, but not anywhere else. Im not too bothered by this because no one uses it anyway, we have postcode anywhere account so they can fill out their address reasonably fast.

    However, my product pages still have a white space and I think I know why - I have built my site in a very weird way, we once discussed this louise, my product pages are actually 'sections' and if im not careful these sections can crash horribly and things mysteriously dissappear overnight. I did this because I didn't want my customers to have to do the following:

    Click here, then here, then please here, followed by this, then that, make cup of tea, then finally arrive at product. So I chose to have almost all navigation from the top bar only, the sd nav links are still at bottom of pages and I don't mind having them there.

    I think I just need to tweak some more padding and margins and try to properly close my iffy tags.

    Thanks so much, for the 1st time since acatalog version 5 im reasonably happy.
    Kind regards,

    Michael

      Hmm,

      All done except a bit of white space which I think is either in 'layout code-tabular product list' or somewhere in 'section page body'. If I try margin px values in layout code - tabular product list it either does nothing or jumbles up the whole page.

      I think theres maybe 1 last piece of NowServingCurrentAccountMyAccountLogoutSimple
      code somewhere but cannot find it.

      Account info now shows nowhere on the site and im not that bothered. Im more concerned about joining the perfect horizontal web design lineup gang instead !

      Maybe this is tricky because my product pages are actually section pages, or worse they may be both
      Kind regards,

        You don't need to remove the whole line, it was just the break tag <br> that puts a space in.

          Thankyou

          Ok I removed all the login code and maybe I should not have done that, sorry.

          The last offending pages are like this:

          http://www.stageprint.co.uk/acatalog...inting-a4.html

          Its not a disaster, im happy (which is a very rare thing for me with my site) but need to make my site neater, more colourful and appealing to the eye anyway, especially as I deal with colours every day when I print !

          There's some code somewhere which is creating the white space above the center section, I really have tried hard to look for it but cannot find it, the home page is correct, sidebars correct, info pages correct but product pages shifted slightly down in the center section by about 15 px ish.

          Just a reminder, my products are actually 'sections' and im not using the software in the way that sd intend us to use it.

          Its not urgent because the site is functioning ok and doing what my customers need it to do.
          Kind regards,

            It's the same code mentioned in an earlier post, the class product-list. Also you should check your CSS, the view source shows you have a style between other styles and incorrectly closed tags.

              Thankyou

              Again, I was looking in the wrong place, I found the code you have mentioned:

              .product-list, section-link {
              margin: 0px;
              padding: 10px;
              text-align: left;
              }

              All the way down at line 889 where I was not expecting to find it because I stupidly assumed it would be near the left and right sidebar codes.

              It adjusts it better but only goes so far, even if I try negative px values to force it there, obviously there is other code stopping it, no doubt my own code somewhere else. I like the position of the sidebars, just where I want them.

              For now im happy, its all much better and I will copy this thread and put it in my sd emergencies folder.

              However ive just tried some tag tidying up, wow just 1 wrong single misplaced { or } can mess up the whole entire site

              I think some reading at w3schools.com is in order.
              Kind regards,
