Default Breaking up the side menus into groups

Does anybody know of an easy way to break up the side menus ?

I'm thinking of something like a line break so the background colour shows through between 'categories', 'special' and 'help'

Default .

You mean Space between Menu?

Like

Authorization Menu
Cart Menu


Instead of that

Autorization Menu

Cart Menu


Just Open up Your Home.tpl and Hit Enter between tpl file names.

Hi raxitpatel, I did try that but it did'nt have an effect. I might try duplicating the table elements in the home.TPL for each heading and see if that works.

thanks

My fault, I guess i didn't explain my self properly, sorry for wasting your time....

what I was actually aiming for was a complete separation of the menu's so that they appear as individual rectangles and not just a line break between them.

That way the menus wont appear as two pillars but as little grey boxes with the black background between the boxes. Sorry, I have tried learning this stuff but my dyslexia makes it real tuff.

Can you be more specific Shan. I'm haveing the same problem as supanewb what I think he is asking is this. If you change the Body background in the css lets say from white to black the RIGHT side menu will reflect your changes between the tables. Where as the left side menu will still be white between the tables and below the help table. this has been buggin me to no end .

Thanks

for some reason there is a css style set on the left column but not on the right of home.tpl.

take a look in that file and youll see what i mean.

remove the style from the left column and all will be good
