Hi every1,im trying to get my head around Actinic. Im trying to creat a list of products as you can see from the link above. The problem i am having is that i do not want a space in between the product name and the seperator.

does any1 know which file i need to go and edit

Thanks in advance

Outlining the table cells in Firefox shows cell padding to the containing product tables and also around the divider which can be removed.

Take a look in the following for starters:

Act_ProductBody.html
Act_ProductLine.html - or whichever modified template you are using
Act_ProductSeperator.html
Act_CartBUtton.html
Act_CartButtonImage.html

to see where you can hepl tighten up the code. May also be worth checking the line-height statements (if any) in the actinic.css

List

my apologise

i'll take you to the actual http://www.uptownrecords.com/ukgarage/index.html

If u look at the list, there are no space between the lines.

What modifications to the aforementioned templates have you undertaken?

This page http://www.cakescookiesandcraftsshop..._Arrivals.html was modified using the above templates to create a single line ... the space was intentional and may closed via CSS and the size of the add to cart and "info link" images could also be reduced to close the gap further still

I have look at and slightly modifed all the files u mentioned

Act_ProductBody.html
Act_ProductLine.html
Act_ProductSeperator.html
Act_CartBUtton.html
Act_CartButtonImage.html

Im thinking that the actinic systems automatically displays the next item, whether it be a seperator or prodcut item under a return operation and not a break line operation if u know what i mean.

If i knew where to go to solve i think that'll solve the problem.

Thanks for the help by the way

You can concatanate the Act_ProductLine.html into itself so it repeats the products before hitting the Act_ProductSeperator.html eg:

<start code for product line>
<end code for product line>
<start code for product line>
<end code for product line>
<next product>

that would give 2 products before the <next product> forces the Act_ProductSeperator.html to be included (assuming you have 3 products)

I will probably have upto about 75 products per list

You can fix most of this by editing your Act_ProductLine.html.

Comment out NETQUOTEVAR:INCLUDE Act_ProductSeparator.html and that gets rid of that annoying line.

Now all you have to consider is that every product is a new <tr> within the existing 3 column table that is defined in Act_ProductBody.html. You can remove the COLS="3" from Act_ProductBody.html which will allow you to have any number of columns in this table.

You may want to comment out some netquotevars i.e. NETQUOTEVAR:OTHERINFOPROMPT and NETQUOTEVARATEPROMPT as these may introduce <br> tags even when not used.

If you intend to use Brochure Fragments within your product details there are some things to consider.

The existing Fragment templates expect 3 cols so it may be necessary to create your own Fragment templates for use on product pages that respect your new column count.

For the above site I removed the table structure for the products and laid it out with CSS - from memory even set some of the NQV's to display:none to remove some white space they were generating (under IE)

The example link above had 60 products in there
