X-Cart forums

I would like to know how to modify that appearance (colors, text, background, etc...) of the "store is closed" page that is displayed when a customer goes to http://www.mydomain.com/xcart/home.php (when I have the store closed)

I tried searching in the templates, but this seems to be the one page that I cannot modify in the templates...?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Katrina

Hi Katrina,

That is a html file found on the root of your xcart.
The file is called shop_closed.html

Oh, thank you for your quick and helpful response...

Okay...

I created a new page of HTML for my "shop_closed.html page" and I linked it with an existing page of CSS that I use for my portal...

But when I view it in my browser, the CSS is not shown. Just text and html markup...

Maybe I should mention that I just did this page in xhtml 1.0 transitional, I'm not sure if this will create a problem?

Thanks for any help,
Katrina

Do you have an URL we can take a look at?
You might not be referencing the CSS file correctly...

If you do not want to make it public you can PM it to me

Ah, I got it!

Thank you very kindly for the offer... I'm very noobish with web design, and it seems that the CSS has to be in the same directory as the HTML page for it to reference it... unless there is another way for pages to reference a CSS that is in a different directory???

This is how I do it, but it only works if they are both in the same directory:

</title>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="homepagecss.css" title="Default" />

</head>
