Default Border and Background

Hi,

I am editing the 2 colum template in 4.4 and want to know how to add a container/border around page so I can have a background color for on the outside of the page. Thanks in advance.

You need to have at least basic knowledge fo css/html and smarty to be able to modify templates. Use Firebug/FF to find the css class(es) to modify for this to work

Thanks cfl,

Thanks cfl,


Pretty good and editing css just trying to familiarize myself with x-cart. I see that all the css files are not located in 2-columns/css/altskin.css There are also some .css files inside the var/cache/ Is this the best place to edit these files?

.products .price-value {
color: #B51A00;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
}

The best place to edit would be the css in the skin you are using. var/cache is for cached files only and you should not be edit anything in var directory.

You should disable the "Use speed-up tool for CSS" under General Options while you are in development. Then, Firebug will direct you to the correct css files to use.
