    Hi

    I've recently installed Magento and the f001 theme (Which by the way is AWESOME!!). but as soon as i refresh the front page, i get the following error message:

    Warning: simplexml_load_string() [function.simplexml-load-string]: Entity: line 321: parser error : AttValue: " or ' expected in /usr/www/users/dynamiba/E-Online/app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Layout/Update.php on line 235
    Trace:
    #0 [internal function]: mageCoreErrorHandler(2, 'simplexml_load_...', '/usr/www/users/...', 235, Array)
    #1 /usr/www/users/dynamiba/E-Online/app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Layout/Update.php(235): simplexml_load_string('

    This message only appears on the home page. all the other pages seem to be working perfectly.

    If someone could please help i would really appreciate it.

    Kindest Regards

    Jose

    Thank you for the great FREE template!
    I fell a little silly asking for support on a free template but here I am.

    The template looks great, except by laptop users (or others with resolution over 1024 x 768.) They see a tiled and left justified header and background.

    Is there a way that I can get the top header background and the main content background to center and not repeat?

    Thank you very much!

    Great video. Thanks for sharing this tutorial for magento. Your template is really cool and simple. No wonder it became popular.

    I am working on rebuilding my site using the f002 free template since the template that I had purchased is not working correctly with the new Magento version and i need product image uploads. My question is: Is there a way to create additional drop down menus in this template like the Products menu? When I try to add a Root Category I can only get the new root category to display under the Products Menu after changing it in the Manage stores menu. Please help!
