css section

Skinning
1

Ok, I’m a little confused on the CSS part, I was changing how it shows in the tut, but my CSS section is show like this:

<style type="text/css" media="all">

</style>
<!--[if IE 5]>
<style type="text/css"> 
#outerWrapper #contentWrapper #leftColumn1 {
  width: 200px;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css"> 
#outerWrapper #contentWrapper #content {
  zoom: 1;
}
</style>
<![endif]-->

So, what/ where do I put in the css code?

All you do is put the style sheet in your skins folder and change the links in the header to reflect where your style sheet is…

Oh ok, never mind, I think I figured it out now..

ok two new problems,

first, I watched Nabeels tut, and followed it, everything is working, except when I click a link in the nav bar and it goes to the page, the next page doesn’t have the stylesheet, its just white etc when a css file is missing.

second, what php code do you put for the side bar thing, Nabeel didn’t say what it was he was typing, and I couldn’t really see it.

make sure that the CSS code is in the header.tpl file, and not in other files, otherwise your skin wont work.

Do you mean for the new pilots and recent flights??  go in to core/templates and find frontpage_main.tpl, the news, recent pilot, and new flights modules are in there.  copy the code to your frontpage_main.tpl.

ok, I figured out the problem, just have one last question.

The headings on multiple pages, for example, the roster page, it has the Hub name hours etc, I want to put an

<h1></h1>

code on those, where would I place the tags? I tried and I got some error on line xx thing.

After that, I just have to move it to the main index, that won’t mess with links when I do will it?

Those headings are in the other templates for the page you want. You’ll have to look for the template in the folder, but you should be able to recognize it.

That CSS bit should go in the header.tpl, make sure that paths are right too.

I’m going to have a list of the templates with what they’re used for filled in, soon

Hope that helps!
