Lightbulb How to move the right side boxes to the left side ?

I have a modification to my xcart to allow external webpages to be displayed in the center product area.

However, its biggest problem is lack of width on normal screens. Its too squashed by the boxes on both sides.

I'd like to move the right side boxes, Your Cart, Authentication and News, to the left hand side. Hoping of course that the center box will then automatically expand to use all the right side of the screen.

But I cannot find anything that states the location of the boxes on the screen.

How would I go about making this change ?

1. Relocating the boxes.
2. Changing the width of the center part of the screen if this isnt automatic.

All help appreciated.

You need to edit skin1/customer/home.tpl and find the table column for the right hand side - in which you'll see all the include statements for Your Cart, etc. Move those to the left column and delete totally the right column.

I'll have to look at the code better then.

I assume then that the order they appear, defines the order they show on the screen, so I should paste the code where I want them to display ?

Thankyou. Will check it out.

Exactly.

That worked quite nicely.

Only slight issue left, is that the middle box now slightly overflows the page causing a lower slider. Only marginally though.

Thanks for the quick help, much appreciated !
