I have also noticed that you have altered they way the templates are handled - they appear to be in propriety files that then generate the final design and layout - so it appears that it is paramount that the visual designer is used to make these alterations and custom website interfaces - can i get a copy of the beta version of this as i have a client who is champing at the bit to have their site complete of which it stands at 98% (minus the final branded shop layout) - which was complete and ready to go but the client has bought the updated version so is no longer compatible with the template setup for version 3

Please help me

Hi Jerome

The theme/template files with the scc extension can be open using WINZIP or a similar product. Allowing you edit the CSS files etc.

Hi Jerome and John,
Once you have opened the files with winzip and made the css amendments, how do you save it back to the themes folder as a .wsc?

Hi John,

Well the best way i found was to create a copy of the template WSC - open it in winzip then transfer and overwrite the css and other files in the open zip file then close it - but dont forget to alter the description file - then i just renamed the wsc file and it seemed to work ok - but i will admit i am having troubles with the template displaying correctly in IE 7 - fine in 8 and in Firefox -argghhhh i am waiting so patiently for the Cart designer to be complete - its taking ages.

Any tips on displaying the products, cart etc in an iframe within my own html pages? I removed all of the headers, footers and navigation for this to look right. Where in the css can I control the number of columns for the inline page? Below is a draft.
