In "Infobox Skin Manager v2.0", the following archive is uncomplete: infobox_skins_upgraders_only.sql

I give you a complete one here

Now you can see all Skins with this.

Update v2.0a for Infobox Skin Manager to apply on v2.0 (1 jan 2004)

catalog/includes/classes/boxes.php:
- Solved a problem with bad display of popup windows.
- Changed the 10 If..Then by 2 lines of code.

Categories and manufacturers boxes will not display correctly if you use the cache option.

open catalog/includes/functions/cache.php, find function tep_cache_categories_box and add $skin_slice_set as global parameter.

I do not know how to operate with MySQL. I need help....actually i need a good description how to add this:

Now Do the MySQL Stuff
-------------------
If this is the first time you have installed this contrib use the infobox_skins.sql file to
make the necessary entries in your MySQL database.

If you had the previous version of Infobox Skin Manager installed then you should use the
supplied infobox_skins_upgraders_only.sql file to add the required new MySQL database entries.

The latest version of Infobox Skin Manager. Now you can skin each boxes individually with one of a library of 10 skin slice sets. Also, you can skin header, footer, left and right columns and even main page content with this one tool.

Changes in version 1.1:

* Included update to fix problem of colour of centre infobox cell not displaying correctly in browsers other than Internet Explorer

* Script updated to provide potential for skinning other boxes (e.g. What's New Box).

Upgrade, as well as full install instructions supplied.

This contribution allows you to easily change the look of your infoboxes by "wrapping" them in a sliced up graphic. All you have to do is draw one infobox template, save it as a JPEG, upload it and the script does the rest!

A small library of example infobox skins is included with this contrib to get you started.

You must have gdlib2 installed on your server for this script to work.
