Base CSS framework

[stanb]

Base CSS framework looks ok in Mozilla except that when Basket or Product List is clicked Checkout button exhibits strange behavior intermittently. IE6 displays navigation buttons oddly.

Maybe I'm missing the latest external stylesheet mm_styles.css. Would someone send me the latest version? Thanks.

Dear Stan,

I have IE7 and it looks like it should to me.

What is odd about the buttons?

Re: Base CSS framework

The buttons are in rows instead of columns. They are stacked horizontally on top of each other in the center of the screen and each is about 700 pixels wide. I am using IE6 SP2.

BTW, it looks fine on a MacBook with Firefox 3. Looks like a browser/CSS issue to me.

Re: Base CSS framework

Updated Mozilla Firefox on my PC and now all is working in Firefox on the PC. Still not working in IE6 so I think it is definitely an IE6/CSS issue.

Anyone else see this with IE6?

I am also using IE7 and it looks fine to me. But what I don't like is the large space to hte left of the category tree. Any way to get rid of it?

Re: Base CSS framework

Are you using the updated framework in this forum. You should have the following code in the HEAD tag, which addresses the issue you are referring to:

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">
#currenttab { width:50px; }
.hiddentab { width: 50px; }
</style>
<![endif]-->

Re: Base CSS framework

Should we assume that the standard CSS framework will NOT work with IE6 and that any site developed with the standard CSS framework must be viewed with IE7+, Firefox or Opera?

Re: Base CSS framework

Uh...no. It works fine in IE6, you just need to add that conditional statement above, which should already be included in the BETA css framework that is available in this forum. I will double-check and, if necessary, update it.

Re: Base CSS framework

Dave,
I added the framework (from this post http://extranet.miva.com/forums/show...34&postcount=2) via the MIVA admin interface but did not see the code in the HEAD tag so I manually added the code

 
<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<style type="text/css">
#currenttab { width:50px; }
.hiddentab { width: 50px; }
</style>
<![endif]-->

to the HEAD tag content and the buttons now display as they should. Thanks.

Re: Base CSS framework

Stan,
It doesn't sound like you are using the official release of Miva Merchant 5.5. The CSS framework was pulled from the admin for that release as there were still bugs to work out in both the admin and the framework system (as you've discovered).

Re: Base CSS framework

Dave,
Well, I did have updates that needed to be installed (Miva Merchant 5.5 patch core-12 and Miva Merchant 5.5 patch core-13) ...didn't see that in the lower left-hand corner...still gettong used to the new interface. I'm not sure if this brings me up to date or not. How would I know if I have the latest official release? I see:

Production Release 5
Miva Merchant Engine v5.06
Database API: mivasql

when I log into the admin area.

Thanks.
