I have a project that the requirements have changed several times on so I am affraid that I have something wrong in the css and I can't find it. I am using custom images as the main content area on most of the category and product pages, I have removed the breadcrumbs and I am using an edited simple list category display with no products listed just html image. I know, half the great functionality is gone, as I said client driven. Anyway there is a gap between the header and the start of the content in IE 6 but not IE 7 then in firefox the footer is layering behind the main content. To top it all off the footer jumps to the right of the main content in IE7 sometimes but if i refresh it corrects. I am at a loss and may be going backwards at this point. If anyone could take a look at the link and see if anything is obvious I would sure appreciate it. I have attached my css and below is a link to the dev site.

It seems you're having some float-clearing issues. Try adding clear:both; to your #footer and then troubleshoot the layout from there.

Thank you so much Cliff. Sorry for the delay. That got the footer working properly in safari and firefox. I'll keeping hacking away at the ie 6 gap. I know you hear it all the time but you are a true asset to this community. Thanks again.

If there is a chance you used Painted Paper to build your own theme.... Kill the "Header Main Menu" [color=#000080><o:p></o:p>[/color]


It's trying to reserve space for the icons that show up when you select "Show in Top Menu" on a category page.



I'm having the same problem, woke up at 5;00am - turned on the "Show in Top Menu" switch - and there it was... gumming up the works. Funny, different problems in FF and IE... Hope this helps.

Hello all,

We're testing this solution a little bit more. For now, what we have done is actually take the css headermainmenu value and reduced the size to zero. But, this will not solve the problem if you do add another category. To completely eliminate this from displaying, I would recommend going to the controls/header.ascx and remove the reference to the headermainmenu, 3 lines.

<div id="headermainmenu">
<uc1:MainMenu ID="MainMenu1" LinksPerRow="7" MaximumLinks="7" runat="server" />
</div>

Sincerely,
Joe
Cliff

Always. If you aren't using it, it's best to remove it from the theme, which is much more convenient in BVC5.

I did use the painted paper them as the base. In the header.ascx web control in my theme I have a mainmenu.ascx reference but I am not calling it in the page. I should have removed that earlier but it isn't helping matters. I know I just have something that I have deleted a reference to and it is somewhere in the hierarchy of controls. probably something with breadcrumbs when I removed them( I know client doesn't want them). Thanks for the thought I'll keep looking. Header control below.

<%@ Control Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Header.ascx.vb" Inherits="BVModules_Themes_Bvc5_Header" %>
<%@ Register Src="../../Controls/MainMenu.ascx" TagName="MainMenu" TagPrefix="uc1" %>
<div id="header" align="center">
<div id="headernavmenu">
<ul>
<li>
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkHome" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/default.htm" TabIndex="20">
</asp:HyperLink>
</li>
<li>
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkAboutUs" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/aboutUs.aspx"
TabIndex="20">
</asp:HyperLink>
</li>
<li>
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkContactUs" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/ContactUs.aspx" TabIndex="31" />
</li>
<li>
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkNews" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/recentNews.aspx"
TabIndex="31">
</asp:HyperLink>
</li>
<li>
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkParts" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/Departments/Replacement-Parts.aspx"
TabIndex="31">
</asp:HyperLink>
</li>
<li>
<asp:HyperLink ID="lnkSearch" runat="server" NavigateUrl="~/Search.aspx" TabIndex="32" />
</li>
</ul>
</div>
