Using both Custom Template & Description Box?

usedbluecomMember

I asked earlier about whether I should use the custom template option for new listings for my 'Custom Template' that we had made up or to just key the HTML in the Description Box. Danno stated that we should use the Custom Template option b/c we can use the tags which is nice. But we need to key in numbers for our measurement box and x's for our other chart. He said we could do that portion in the Description box. Can anyone explain how we should use that along with the Custom Template? An example of our template is at 220432394321 that is up right now for a test. We posted that auction through Turbo Lister.
Thank you once again!!

Hi,

I took a quick look at the listing and the design. The mid-section where you have pictures at left and description information with two tables on the right would need to have the right side HMTL removed and placed in the description editor box and a [DESCRIPTION] tag put in it's place.

Looking at the code suggests it's not a simple cut-away. The center section would require some code changes to best operate that description group as a stand-alone table element. Current design has them operating as parts/pieces of a table that comprises everything from the title down to the WW Ship image. Not a too difficult task, but best done with the original template. The IMAGE and TITLE tags should also operate OK with the style I see, but some consideration for the picture sizes and your standard dimensions and aspect ratio. I can also imagine you may have situations where more than two images are best, e.g. a designer patch/logo or a close-up shot of some design element. Operating them at a fixed width and flex height is best with the design IMO.
