I agree, I'm a little disappointed with new template. Many important parts of the skin are still table based (featured products, product listing, product page, menu cart, forms etc.). Also, css should be optimized , it is very complicated and too big ....73kb, 3985 lines

.

Anyway, congrats on the release.

Sounds like an opportunity for a commercial product!

Ahh thanks, however I still am hesitant to upgrade anytime soon.

So you saying 4.2 isn't 100% tableless?

It's not going to be when there's tabular data

Doesnt sound like I am going to upgrade anytime soon, or even install our new sites with this version.......Maybe in 6 months or so.

Great the 4.2 is here. i am almost ready with a completely new deisgned xcart 4.1

wanted to go online with it 1st januari. lol. But now i have things to do during christmas hehe. So i started with 4.2 now.... BUT bad luck. Cannot edit the templates etc.
Admin safe mode is set to false. attributes even set to 777 on all files, STILL CAN NOT EDIT the templates.. Whats wrong?

Tables are still useful in some situations - like tabular data

That's what they were originally made for, and are still effective when used the right way.

Wow, all my mods below.... i think Jon is spot on with his assessment that we need to wait.
