Hi,

I'm having a problem getting the search input box on the following page to display on the same line as the "Shopping Cart", "Checkout" and "Order Tracking" links.


I know there are probably several errors in the html, but this is a shopping cart script where most of the html is dynamically generated.

If anyone could help me get that search input box and button on the same line as the other links that I mentioned, I would be very grateful.

It displays just fine in IE, but not Firefox, Netscape or Opera so there's obviously something wrong in the markup.

Thanks for any suggestions!

Code:
<A HREF="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.presentville.com/cgi-bin/ccp51/cp-app.cgi?usr=51J3581604&rnd=3283948&rrc=N&affl=&cip=85.124.17.17&act=&aff=&pg=track">order[/URL] tracking</A>[red][s]<br><br>[/s][/red] </div>
Other browsers don't like those br elements there. Of course, Mozilla will make you understand that inline elements cannot have text-align property, so I don't know what you're planning to do to solve that. I personally would go with floats.

BTW, what happened to right click on your page?
 
Hi,

Thanks for the response.

I had it disabled, but I've re-enabled it. I know, people can still get images, but it will deter enough to make it worthwhile.

I'll try float and let you know how I make out.

Thanks,

kelly


 
Does that look right to you now?

Also, if you look at it in IE, do you get the newer style of submit button? (The one that has a slight blue border around it and it's more rounded...basically like the Firefox button.) For some reason IE is displaying the older style form button for me. I think my version of IE maybe got corrupted in the last day or so. It wasn't like that before. Can you tell me what yours looks like?

Thanks so much for your help!

Disabling right click would also deter me from visiting the page again. I use right click for all the great options it provides, even when I don't steal images. You can't take an essential navigation tool away from people just because there's a way to use this tool to take your images.
 
I can understand why you might feel that way and I'll certainly consider removing it because my primary concern is the customer, but you didn't spend countless hours editing images for products that might be sold by other affiliates, so take that into consideration. :-\ All of the features that are accessible through right-click are also accessible from the main menu. It's a shame that we feel the need to resort to disabling features.

Any feedback on my changes?



 
Looks a-ok in my Mozilla. Good work.

I know I can get all the functions that context menu offers elsewhere, but I use them there for convenience. And it is true that determined people who want to steal your images will still get them, but those who just want to browse the site via context menu will not be able to. That is reason enough for me to not tamper with client's mouse buttons.
