Default Lost styling because of adding table
Hi,
I made a table for the front page, to include the userindex and since then i have lost styling on headings on most of the pages. Screen shots here http://everythingsfree.org/image//im...962styling.jpg
Now even if i remove the table they still stay the same. How can i get them back to original? Where is the styling called and or what are they called in the style.css?

I will copy the table code bellow, should the table be calling a class?

Cheers,
Nick

Code:
	{if $body=='home.tpl'}
	<table border="0" width="100%">
		<tr>
				<td valign="top">
					<div id="content">
			{if $maffo_search}
               {include file=$maffo_search}
            {/if}
			</td>
			<td valign "top" width="55%">
		{include file=user/home2.tpl}
				</td>
		</tr>
	</table>{/if}
That is all i changed.

Delete the contents of /templates_c and see if that gets your styling back if you reverted your changes.

Hi,
I have tried that but it did not help.
By the way what is the point of the templates_c folder? can it be deleted every couple of hours or is it best to leave it there?
Cheers

smarty compiles the template files which is whats in the templates_c folder. The folder is required and its contents are auto generated.

As for your screen shots and code snippets, most of the time they dont give us the details to help you. Often times you dont explain what you dont like in the image and the tid bit of code isnt complete so helping is difficult. Furnishing us with a link is the best way to get help.

Hi,
Maffo the <div id="content"> was closed just below what i had copied.
Go to Truck And Machinery.com.au Hino Bus/Tram 1988 for an example, where it says the category it is in has no styling. And also Truck And Machinery.com.au the "Contact Us" has no styling.
All the code is here:

Code:

First of all - MAKE BACKUPS when you do significant changes. Secondly, you should have made a copy of your default template folder, renamed it and always worked on that. You have little way to go back to a standard which does work without mucking about. It is also much more difficult to upgrade as new versions are released again without mucking about. You will tend to overwrite things that you have already done and get in a tangle.

1. what are <div class="layout"> and <div id="home">doing in layout.tpl? I cannot see them defined anywhere? They are not in your style.css file.
2. what is this <body style="background-color: #FFFFFF"> doing in your layout.tpl file. It is already defined in your style.css file in body.
3. where is this line <div class="clear"></div> which is in the default layout.tpl file
4. Rename you template directory and download the default template and see if your contact page gets properly styled. If it does then copy its contents into your contact.tpl, test and modify slowly. Do this for all problem pages.
5. Best if you do this for the future. In your admin panel set the template to your template, leaving the default alone. You can switch between templates that way and see if you have made an error in a couple of minutes.

In this case I cannot see the obvious error why your <legend> tag and colour is not working or the styling on the box. Something seems to be overriding them.

Thanks for the tips, i always do a backup. I have a layout.tpl backup without the table and the user index and it works fine.
If i replace this
Code:
{if $body!='showlistings.tpl'}
				<td valign="top">
					<div id="content">
			{if $maffo_search}
               {include file=$maffo_search}
            {/if}
            			{/if}
With this
Code:
	{if $body=='home.tpl'}
	<table width="100%">
		<tr>
				<td valign="top">
					<div id="content">
			{if $maffo_search}
               {include file=$maffo_search}
            {/if}</div>
			</td>
			<td valign "top" width="55%">
				</td>
		</tr>
	</table>{/if}
Which is a table with maffos search mod in it and nothing in the other table, this is when then the problem starts.
So even though there might be a few errors in the layout.tpl it is not causing this problem.
It has soemthing to do with the table, even if i delete the maffo search mod from the first colum it still happens so it must be the table. Should it be calling a class?

Also were i have <body style="background-color: #FFFFFF"> this is because the menu i used has made the background a blue and it was easier than fixing it in the menu css.
Cheers

Hi,
What do you mean by missing = sign?
Also by adding   into the second cell did nothing, so i changed it back to the userindex.
Cheers
