Magento remove currency selector on sidebar
September 7, 2011 | one response.
Well i have a client which have no idea how the currency selector pops out on the magento sidebar,
well having a currency selector is pretty good for business, especially as a E-commerce site, however some might felt cheated because of the conversion rate could be wrong, and user pay lesser, that created the confusion to store owner and buyer.
here is a way to remove the selector from sidebar.
go and open app/design/frontend/yourtheme/yourtheme/layout/directory.xml
<reference name="left">
<block type="directory/currency" name="currency" before="catalog.leftnav" template="directory/currency.phtml"/>
</reference>
</catalog_category_default>
<!--
Category layered navigation layout
-->
<catalog_category_layered>
<reference name="left">
<block type="directory/currency" name="currency" before="catalog.leftnav" template="directory/currency.phtml"/>
</reference>
</catalog_category_layered>

css3 3d button
August 31, 2011 | 2 responses.

Well now lets get into CSS,

// or you can write your css directly in here.
< ![endif]-->
Targeting at IE6 only
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie6.css" />
// or you can write your css directly in here.
< ![endif]-->
