Blank sidebox 1.1 image question

[Maxx409]

Hi,
I downloaded the blank sidebox 1.1 from the downloads page and got it to display on my webpage. In the instructions when it gets to this:

> includes/templates/templates_default/sideboxes/tpl_blank_sidebox.php

Open file. Find where it says:
<!-- EDIT BELOW THIS LINE -->
and
<!-- EDIT ABOVE THIS LINE -->

Edit as desired. Do not use any ' marks in your edits. You may add text, links, images, etc.

How do I put an image into the context box (not heading)? I've tried this: ../images/centerpiece.jpg

but it just displays the text. Whaddya think?

Thanks
maxx

Try

<img src="includes/templates/your_template/images/your_image.xxx" >

or you could use a relative reference:

<img src="url(../images/your_image.xxx)" >

Thanks for the quick response Kobra. I couldnt get either code to work but I just did something different altogether. I'll save the sidebox image battle for another day. I did figure out how to make all the sidebox headers into an image I didn't even know I had though. Progress backwards is still progress.

Thanks again
Maxx

Maxx,

I have two sidebox contributions that contain images (I just haven't put them in the download section yet because I'm still working on a couple of things for them.)

I did offer to upload a zip of the logo sidebox for you to use.

Indeed you did clydejones, thank you. I didn't want to put you out and thought I could figure it out. Not the first time my over confidence has cost me. I would like to take you up on your kind offer. Um... how do I get you my e-mail address?

Thanks again

the logo_sidebox is a simple and usefull add-on to Zen. I used it to show my Better Business Logo. I know the answer is simple, but I can not get a hyperlink attached to my image. The link I want to add is http://www.bbbonline.org/cks.asp?id=1061208141213343 .
Would you reply showing the correct file with this link installed so that I can set it up. Probably there are others who also like your program but are afraid to ask such a dumb question. Thanks in advance.

This should attach a link to this:

define('LOGO_SIDEBOX_IMAGE', '<a href="http://your_link.com">test_logo.jpg</a>');

I have not tested this and the anchor tag "<a" and "</a>" may or may not be required
