making things sit correctly in custom templates

[web@ack]

Hi

I have built a store with a custom template to fit in with a sites branding.

my problem is that i need to narrow a couple of tables because when they are currently being displayed they are stretching my template.

Selecting shipping destination (step 1 of checkout)
When you do not select a shipping destination, the error message appears in a table. Think the template that is used of rthis section is Act_Order00.html but there doenst appear to be anywhere that mentions about the width of a table that would fix this. I have altered all other widths on that page.

Postage and not filling fields in (step 1 of checkout)
Around where the postage is stated, there is a table with a width of 600, i need this to narrow but cannot find where to do so.
When you do not fill in all required fields, the error message appears in a table. Think the template that is used of this section is Act_Order01.html but there doenst appear to be anywhere that mentions about the width of a table that would fix this. I have altered all other widths on that page.

Speedy response would be much appreciated

thank you

also another thing, is there any way of the receipt page opening up in a new window? at the moment in the template i have if set in, it missing some of the right hand side when printing

thanks

There is a knowledge base article about the error message box HERE.

With regards to the table that is 'Around where the postage is stated' I would need more info or a URL to look at before I could advise.

Nope. All you could (and should really) do is use a very plain overall layout template with no sidebars, and select it in 'Design | Options | Layouts'.

thanks, have changed that bit, will test when i do an upload later.

regards the other bit, if you go to http://www.w3dgk.com/cordee/acatalog...ooksale_2.html

and add an item to the basket, on the second step of filling in your details, there is a table around the postage which i need to narrow down.

thanks

It looks like the code is in
'ShipControl\Act_SimpleShippingTemplate.html'
