Hi, I'm asking the question here because my three very basic templating queries at the Joomla forum have gone unanswered:
1. does anyone know if I'm calling up the Atomic template's blueprint css 'liquid grid' plugin correctly (as per the protocol for css commands and the order they should be put)? The lines below are the default scripting by Joomla - only the last line was added by me with a <head> editing plugin:
<!-- The following five lines load the Blueprint CSS Framework (http://blueprintcss.org). If you don't want to use this framework, delete these lines. -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/css/blueprint/screen.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/css/blueprint/print.css" type="text/css" media="print" />
<!--[if lt IE 8]><link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/blueprint/ie.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection"><![endif]-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/css/blueprint/plugins/fancy-type/screen.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/css/blueprint/plugins/joomla-nav/screen.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<!-- The following line loads the template CSS file located in the template folder. -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/css/template.css" type="text/css" />
<!-- The following four lines load the Blueprint CSS Framework and the template CSS file for right-to-left languages. If you don't want to use these, delete these lines. -->
<!-- The following line loads the template JavaScript file located in the template folder. It's blank by default. -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/js/template.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/subdirectory/templates/MyCopyofAtomicTemplateForCustomization/css/blueprint/plugins/liquidgrid/liquid.css" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />
2. can anyone suggest why the liquid.css renders correctly for a moment on iphones and then reverts back to the more narrow 960px style of the original blueprint.css - and more importantly, what may be causing the whole right column of my template (it's the inverse of the default Atomic format) to be pushed down to the bottom of the screen when viewed in Android?
This is a link to the file included with Joomla installation: http://www.designbyfire.com/liquid_blueprint/blueprint/lib/liquid.css (http://www.designbyfire.com/liquid_blueprint/blueprint/lib/liquid.css)
the example page seems to render fine in Android: http://www.designbyfire.com/liquid_blueprint/tests/liquid.html (http://www.designbyfire.com/liquid_blueprint/tests/liquid.html)
Any help would be most appreciated
Sorry - this really isn't the forum for this sort of question - what has it to do with VM?
Bye the bye - my template of choice for a starter is protostar
It's not directly related, but since I am using VM and the Joomla forum haven't answered for over a week, I'm trying my luck here...
Must be over 4 years since I last linked to this: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=66083.0
