Html tags in Category Description Help
 

Hello,

I have an img tag
I'm placing it in the beginning of the category description, but it causes the template to look like this:
http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i103/mikevid/Image13.jpg

I would like it to look like this:
http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i103/mikevid/Image11.jpg
(I cheated and used
to make it look like that).

I think it has something to do with a div tag, however my html is not as good as it should be (lol).

Any ideas? ...Please

Thank you.

Easiest way is to create two table cells, one for the image and one for the description. Since you are using align="left", everything is going to wrap, as you have seen first hand :)

Table suggestion to wrapping problem
 

Hello again,

I tried the table:
I get this result:

It adds a lot of space above the picture as you can see by comparing to the other example in my previous post.

Is a CSS controlling tables in this, do you know?

Thank you again :)

Get rid of the cellpadding and use valign="top" on the table cells.

Removed padding on table
 

Hi,

As you suggested I got rid of the padding:

Do you have any other ideas? ...and thank you again for your help :)

Regards.

In customer/main/subcategories.tpl, try replacing this:

{$current_category.description|regex_replace:"/[\n]/":"
"}



with this:

{$current_category.description}

That was it!
 

The mod you sent worked! THANK YOU

Such a pain in the butt that thing. I used to have like 300 lines of code (an HTML table) all on one line #-o . It's really fun to edit.

Maybe it shouldn't replace \n by default!

Well, it is meant for people who have no html knowledge so they can enter line breaks without having to code them.
