Center align the page..
 

Hi guys,

I don't know if this question has been asked before, but I desperately need help on template mod. I looked for an answer on the forum, but couldn't find it....
Basically, I want to design a lite like target.com aligning the entire fixed page in the center.
How can we do that?

Re: Center align the page..
 

one way to do it:

skin1.css

TABLE.Container { width: 800px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; background-color: #FFFFFF; }

That's one way to do it...

Thank you!!! That was awesome!!
This is my first X-Cart mod, so I am sooo new to all the template editing.
If you don't mind me asking, where do you think I could get a good "How to" instrucitions on editing the template, or writing a X-Cart template from scratch?

making a template from scratch will require a SERIOUS skillset, including expertise in xhtml, css, smarty and possibly php.

may I suggest reading the forum here, possibly buying a 3rd party template (learn from the best) and become a student of xcart.

start by editing the CSS and from there, just dig in!

Remember, there are few "major" changes -- most are minor... thousands of minor changes all add up to something great.

Just start -- and set limits for yourself, or else you will never sleep.

Good luck.

Thankyou guys!! I really appreciate for all your help and very very quick reply! As you recommend, I am going to start slowly changing CSS and learn. Its true that for learning anything, you have to start a step at a time. I guess I was looking for some kind of a shortcut, but now that I know there isn't much way around it, I am motivated to really sit down, have a big coffee right next to me, and do it!

Much appreciated for your support!!

also, I have printed Ryan's editing guide so that I have a hard copy right next to me when I am editing the page!
