Why is products_t.tpl all tables? adn why is each portion broken up in to separate foreach statements?

I just want to put a border around the entire product cell. was very very simple in 4.1.

how do I do this i 4.2?

[ARW VISIONS]

well that was annoying I'll post the code if anyone is interested.

Sure I would be interested in seeing this please.
I am having trouble getting my head around these new layout styles in 4.2, and as you found why are some template files still not tabless.

I just removed all of the redundant foreach loops.

Make sure you keep the old products_t.tpl

This is the

not exactly what I want.

While it mimics the appearance of what I want, I simply want one border around the product cell.

This gives me partial borders around parts of the table and parts of the cells.

I sometimes like to add a little cellsapcing to make them separate, then use mouse over to give them different color borders and backgrounds.

Is there a functional reason why there needs to be tables and 5 foreach loops?

[Victor D]

Yes, it makes all items looks like them have equal height and the layout is more accurate.
I can't post complete solution since the whole products_t.tpl significally differs from original but here's some clues

        {foreach from=$row item=product name=cycle}
          {if $product}
            <td class="product-cell product-cell-buynow"  style="border:1px solid #ccc;border-top:0px none;">
<img height="1" width="172" src="{$ImagesDir}/m21.gif" alt="" /> 
                {if $config.Appearance.buynow_button_enabled eq "Y"}
                  {include file="customer/main/buy_now.tpl"}
                {else}
                  &nbsp;
                {/if}

            </td>
{if not $smarty.foreach.cycle.last}<td><img src="{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif" height="5" width="5" alt="" /></td>{/if}

          {/if}
        {/foreach}
      </tr>
      
      {if not $smarty.foreach.products_matrix.last}<tr><td colspan="{$config.Appearance.products_per_row*2-1}"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif" height="5" width="5" alt="" /></td></tr>{/if}

    {/foreach}

My solution works fine for what I need. thanks for your help tho.

[hoosierglass]

Ash did you ever figure out how to do this in 4.3?

This stupid thing wants to put a border around every element inside of each product.

Theres another topic I posted about this in 4.3 ( I still cannot properly figure this out, well I can but very complicated coding indeed)..

I even tried Jquerry columns. I gave up and used alternative as it was holding up other things I needed doing, I will go back to it when I can get my head around it.

The other topic is here that may offer you more Help >
