images in blank_sidebox.php

[merlin01326]

I have downloaded the blank_sideboxes.php and got it to show on the site.

The instructions say to use HTML to input images after the $content:=

I have tried using <img src = imagename.jpg> from my images folder and all I get is a little error image as though the image cannot be found.

Is this the problem or is it that I am not using the correct code.

Unfortunately I am using a localhost to build so not possible to show the problem

Any help would be appreciated. I have searched the site for image placements and do not want to use the banner system..

Thank you in anticipation

To follow on from the above, this is the code that I have in at the moment highlighted in red...

$content = '';
$content .= '<div id="' . str_replace('_', '-', $box_id . 'Content') . '" class="sideBoxContent">';

// Replace the text and HTML tags between the apostophes on lines 19 and 20.
// Use as many or as few lines using this model as you need for your custom content.
// If you have a multilingual site define your text in the languages/YOUR_LANGUAGE/extra_definitions/colour_sidebox_defines.php and include it as shown in line 19.
// If your site is monolingual, you can put the text right here as shown on line 20 (and nobody will know!)
$content .= '<p>' . TEXT_COLOUR_SIDEBOX . '</p>';
$content .= '<p> <img src="../../../../images/colours/black.jpg" alt="" />
You can include text, links, images, HTML markup and even PHP code</p>';

$content .= '</div>';
?>

You can use the zen_image() function for this purpose.

To get an idea of how to use that function, you might want to take a look at the PayPal Verified Logo sidebox mod and see how everything ties together.
