It worked, Thank you for the support.
Actually I have one more question - how to increase the length of the characteristic values fields in the back-end now?

Hi there,

this cannot be done only by CSS.
You have to change some code.

Go to file: "administrator/components/com_jshopping/controllers/products.php"
Go to line: 1203 -> 1205

You should see this code:

}else{
$obj->values = "<input class='xxx' type='text' name='".$name."' value='".$product->$name."' />";
}


And change it to this code:

}else{
//$obj->values = "<input type='text' name='".$name."' value='".$product->$name."' />";
$obj->values = "<textarea name='".$name."' cols='50' rows='5'>".$product->$name."</textarea>";
}


This creates a textarea instead of a input field.

No we just have to figure out how to parse html code in this filed ...
