Default category menu help

Is there a way to add a border around my category names?

Sure, you can use CSS to style the text however you like This is standard CSS for how to add a border:

border: 1px solid #000000;

Use whatever you wish to achieve the style, color and size you are after.

There are lots of ways to do this you could implement CSS. You could even change the code in the /skin1/customer/categories.tpl file to make sure each category is a cell and put a border around that.

It all depends on what you want to do, that decides the best method to do it.

Also, your signature says you are running version 4.1.3. But I believe on both of your stores you've applied the upgrade so you should change your signature to 4.1.9

I did add a border in css but it does not go accross the box for some reason. See www.archturnings.com/home.php.

Yes I need to change my sig as soon as I figure out to eliminate my email address from showing in the forumn posts.

I'll have to look at changing the categorie.tpl into a cell.

to whatever class you are using for the category <div>

I don't think you'll be able to remove the email address from your posts. It has to do with a display name that you choose when you created the account. And X-Cart doesn't have any way of changing it that I know of. I even tried changing my regular email address for notifications and couldn't do that either.
