MIB, thanks for your email.
I spent a good amount of time in this ³learning adventure² before I even
wrote the CSS list. I¹ve learned to try things for myself before going to
any list.
There is something specific to this problem that limits my adventure. And
that is that I¹m dealing with a third party¹s backend in which I don¹t
have access to stylesheets or even the HTML. The shopping cart does allow
for changing the CSS through a form they have on their site but other than
that, my access is very limited. So, I have certain restrictions that
don¹t allow me full access and, therefore, I have to find workarounds
within their system. (If I did have access to their HTML I could have
easily done what I needed to do in about 15 seconds.
The problem with using #cart-contents is that it controls the WHOLE page
of the shopping cart. Hide that ID and the page turns blank.
