Where is this code in template's?
I have attached a capture of 2 thing's I haven't been able to find in the template's

(1)The area which appears to be a background I have marked with a "xxxx", I would like to change this color from white to my own color eg; #738FBF

(2) The second area is marked by a red dot, it is on the far left and the dot is on the code I would like to change...if possible I would like to be able to make it thinner or change the color completely.

**Area 1 where the next button appear's in my capture I easily edited in the home template but this area in question appears on every page but the home page and is white...

All I need to know is what templates this code is in to make the change's and if you need to a small example..thank's for your time.

Thank's ryel01 but can you be just a bit more specific..I have already edited this template with the code's #738FbF

I am suspecting this might be ClearShim.gif but where is the color or background color tag?

Also which tag is the black I see on the left? I have tried changing multiple thing's with no effect

thank's again for your help...

Try

bgcolor=black rowspan=2><img src="<%build_images_url%>/default/BlackShim.gif"

Thank you minesite..I got almost everything working but did'nt realize I would have to edit so many template's..each page in the main menu at the top had to be edited to fix these problem's...

The only page that doesnt work properly now is the what's new page...I checked new.html but something seem's odd with the code to me.

I suspect this is the code that need's to be edited but only the first half of the bar appear's correctly

<%header_font%><%total%> NEW LINKS:<%/header_font%></td>
<td bgcolor="#738FBF" width="70%" colspan=2><img src="<%build_images_url%>/default/ClearShim.gif" border=0 height=8 width="500"></td>
</tr>


**The part where ClearShim.gif is white on the right..see attached capture.

**I also took the template code and pasted into Dreamweaver and the spot where ClearShim.gif appears is a background with #738FBF as the color...yet I see it as clear and my background color is there instead of #738FBF

Not quite sure on this one, try the globals in the Admin for header row , title linked row or similar.

Both title_linked_row and header_row are #738FBF already, title linked row is the proper color and it's what's to the right of it that I can't change..thank's for all your help minesite...

You sure its not the "colspan" setup incorrectly? Would help a lot more if we could actually see the page itself Wink (or at least the outputted HTML).

Changing the header font from 2 to 1 made the gap 1/10 the size

Changing body_font from 2 to 1 for size once again made the gap huge..like in my original capture, why would fonts affect that?

*I havent touch the col span in the new.html file...

Hi. Could you email me over the template(s) you are using? It may be a missing tag or something. Also, the globals.txt file, which will let me see which globals you are using. Its just one of those things that are pretty hard to sort out, unless you know what you are looking for :(

Cheers

This problem was solved by Andy :-)

For future reference if someone has this problem

In new.html, if you change;

<%title_linked_row%><td colspan=2 valign=middle><%body_font%>
...to

<%title_linked_row%><td colspan=3 valign=middle><%body_font%>

Problem is fixed...
