Overlapping Text

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hi Paul:
Please take a look at this page:

cidbusiness.com/index.php/about-us

You will notice that the text for the article title overlaps the text... what is causing this as it does not happen on the home page...

cidbusiness.com/index.php

Cheers,

Tony

Hi Tony,

Yeah this is odd = my apologies if I've asked this already but this template is the latest version?

Fine PAul.
I'll wait for your response.
In the meantime can you tell how the logo on the demo site is loaded?

Hi Tony,

Its a custom html published to the logo position

With a heading tag and a p tag underneath it

Where is the heading tag found... in the template area... or elsewhere?

Hi Tony,

This is the content of the custom html module so all the content for it needs to be added this way and published to the logo position

Hi Paul: As you can see from here:

cidbusiness.com/

The Custom HTML was used; but how does the LOGO create that particular image...
I am most curious...

Its this part of the hmtl

<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;"></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"></li>
</ul>

Combined with a lot of css3 styling

#logo ul li:nth-child(1) {
border-width: 0 8em 6em 0;
border-color: transparent transparent rgba(255,255,255,0.5);
-moz-transform: skew(15deg);
-ms-transform: skew(15deg);
-webkit-transform: skew(15deg);
transform: skew(15deg);
z-index: 5;
}

So this css corresponds with the 1st child element of the ul li

The styling for the 2nd child is different

#logo ul li:nth-child(2) {
border-width: 6em 4em;
border-color: transparent transparent rgba(255,255,255,0.4);
top: -6em;
left: 0.75em;
z-index: 0;
}

and same with the 3rd list element

#logo ul li:nth-child(3) {
border-width: 0 0 6em 8em;
border-color: transparent transparent rgba(230,230,230,0.5);
-moz-transform: skew(-15deg);
-ms-transform: skew(-15deg);
-webkit-transform: skew(-15deg);
transform: skew(-15deg);
left: 1.5em;
z-index: 3;
}

Cheers

HI Paul: OK, I think this is probably not worth pursuing... I will just get a logo from my client and add it to the Custom HTML published to the LOGO position.

Hi Tony,

To create something yourself using css3 is quite tricky and as you say I'd just use an image :)
