Changing the look of register.php/ any help pretty please :)

howdy howdy xoopers,

I'm trying to modify the way the register form looks, but im pretty much a design junky. So swimming through endless code isnt quite my cup of tea. Does anyone know how to change the font size of the dropdowns (mainly timezone) on register.php? The problem im having is the way I have the site laid out, when someone goes to the registration screen the timezone dropdown streches way past the 800X600 mark im trying to stay in. I've alrady tried a couple different ways through css, but I can only effect the input areas.

any ideas would greatly help, thanks

This form is defined in

system admin->templates->system->system_userform.html

The default theme does not have many style.css calls if any, so they would need to be defined in the template and the style.css in your themes folder. The template in x2t is quite neat and has more style.css definitions included in the template and style sheet. X2t has its templates in your extras folder. Perhaps use this as a bouncing board..

Thanks for your reply

Im actualy talking about the registration form ex: yoursite.com/register.php

Is this hardcoded to the point of not being editable or is it just somewhere deep within? Im trying to make this fit in about a 500px area, but with the dropdown for different timezones(and maybe even the disclaimer textarea) it stretches it much further than i can allow.

thanks again,

The above is the design template for the form the users see

I know what you mean, the registration is hardcoded, others have posted about this in the past, the most one can do at the moment without serious codeing is change the fonts sizes and look and sizes etc through the template I mentioned. The text can also be change through language defines.

hehe, im just a big wank, I just viewed the source...found the class (timezone_offset, if anyone else needs it) and put the css as needed ex:
#timezone_offset {font-size: 10px;}

well thats just cool stuff

system_userform.html is not the Registration form, it is the login form. I still can't find a template for the Registration form, which appears to be built dynamically using the classes.

If you really want to know , the registration form is found in include/registerform.php.

Another way to manage the timezone 'space' is to decrease the text included in it. The file to edit is language/english/timezone.php. For my site, I just included 1 or 2 of the more common countries instead of having it listing about 4-5.
