Default custom welcome.tpl, can't display featured products
Hi all! This SHOULD be a simple fix, but it's not so simple that I can do it. If you visit http://www.adorableagain.com/customer/home.php you'll see the photos I have in the welcome.tpl template.

I am trying to have the Featured Products appear beneath this area but whenever I try to paste the include call for the featured products it shifts everything all over the page and tries to place the features products to the far right side of the page.

The welcome.tpl reads as follows:

Code:
<body leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<table width="624" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

  
  <tr> 
    <td width="243" rowspan="4" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage3.jpg[/img]</td>
    <td height="38" colspan="5" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage5.gif[/img]</td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td width="9" rowspan="2" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage4.gif[/img]</td>
    <td height="72" colspan="4" bgcolor="#4AB508"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">If 
      you are looking for great clothing at great prices, you've 
      found the right place! We carry a wide range of hand-selected 
      new and pre-owned clothing for boys and girls ranging in size from 0-4T.</font></td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td width="54" height="68" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage3.gif[/img]</td>
    <td colspan="3" valign="middle" bgcolor="#4AB508"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">We 
      also have some adorable gifts for the expectant 
      mom so come take a look around! You'll be glad you did, and you'll 
      be amazed at just how affordable adorable can be!</font></td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td height="200" colspan="3" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage4.jpg[/img]</td>
    <td width="138" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage5.jpg[/img]</td>
    <td width="120" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage6.jpg[/img]</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td height="1"></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
    <td width="60"></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</body>

Any tips or fast advice from the think tank?

Heather

Hi there, I tried that and te result is the same. I've left it on the site for now so you can see what it is doing. Now, my code reads:

Code:
<table width="624" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

  
  <tr> 
    <td width="243" rowspan="4" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage3.jpg[/img]</td>
    <td height="38" colspan="5" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage5.gif[/img]</td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td width="9" rowspan="2" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage4.gif[/img]</td>
    <td height="72" colspan="4" bgcolor="#4AB508"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">If 
      you are looking for great clothing at great prices, you've 
      found the right place! We carry a wide range of hand-selected 
      new and pre-owned clothing for boys and girls ranging in size from 0-4T.</font></td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td width="54" height="68" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage3.gif[/img]</td>
    <td colspan="3" valign="middle" bgcolor="#4AB508"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">We 
      also have some adorable gifts for the expectant 
      mom so come take a look around! You'll be glad you did, and you'll 
      be amazed at just how affordable adorable can be!</font></td>
  </tr>
  <tr> 
    <td height="200" colspan="3" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage4.jpg[/img]</td>
    <td width="138" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage5.jpg[/img]</td>
    <td width="120" valign="top">[img]{$ImagesDir}/homepage6.jpg[/img]</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td height="1"></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
    <td width="60"></td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
  </tr>
</table>

{include file="customer/main/featured.tpl" f_products=$f_products}

Thank you for your help!

Heather
