3 Questions from a newbie (CSS, Sitemap plugin, and error in news module!)

Post by RobertPetersen »

I just made my first real page in CMSMS, and i Love it. Still i'm not at CSS hardcore programmer, so i found it at bit hard, because there is so many places that you have to change the CSS. The Site we are talking about is www.digitizer.dk

No. 1. CSS or at least i think it is related to CMS. Looking at the frontpage in Internet Explorer (Mozilla looks just fine) the right side table changes form, it looks like at gets more wide when moving the mouse. I think it is CSS related, just dont know where to look?

No. 2. I made a page called sitemap, and then i entered the code "sitemap} (optional) showall" And it works just fine. BUT, this little piece of code is visible too, so at this moment i just formated it with the colour white, so the normal customer dont notice it, but i know that there must be something wrong, anybody ?

No. 3.  Looking at the page with internet Explorer, there is a error sign in the left side buttom, (I don't know how too paste and copy the message into here, but it's there. I think the error message showed up, after i typed some in the news module.

I hope that there is someone out there, who can help me.....

Kind regards Robert

(sorry don't have IE at my disposal at the moment)
The sitemap plugin has an (optional, 0 is default) parameter showall 1/0, the syntax is:

Code: Select all

{sitemap showall="1"}
or

Code: Select all

{sitemap}

You may have to give the tables p a call in the CSS... the * html body is an IE only hack so it's the only browser that reads this.

* html body #main td p {
  font-size: 1em;
  margin: 0 0 1.5em 0; /* some air around p elements */
  line-height: 1.4em;
  padding: 0;
}

Thanks Mark..
The next Newbie Question is.. where to put the code in ?

I found the *body 2 places.

Layout , Left simple navigation + 1 column (direct click)
OR
Layout , Left simple navigation + 1 column (CSS icon click) which opens 5 possibilities
such as
"Handheld"
Layout: Left sidebar + 1 column (*body here to)
Module: News
Print
Navigation: Simple - Vertical
Accessibility and cross-browser tools

Kind regards Robert
