Background images

[Jace]

I'm using the default Zen-Cart template. Ref: www.healthreflections.com.au

I would like to put background images in the sideboxes but not sure how it could be done... is this possible, and if so, how can I do it?

Inside the side boxes themselves or in the area behind them?

Hoping to put an image as the background of the sidebox, so it would be siting in the box with everything in front of it.

The same for all side boxes?
Or different for each side box?

A link to your install would illuminate the issue

Place ONE space in it to break the link as in

I'm wanting a background image for all sideboxes, preferably a different image for each, but i can do all the same if it has to be. Link posted, in first post: http://www. healthreflections.com.au

Each side box has a ID, globally the class is .sideboxContent
For globally add a background image to the class in the stylesheet associated with your template

.sideBoxContent {
        background-image: url(../images/your_image.ext);
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	padding: 0.4em;
	}

I've added in the red line as you've shown, but it's not showing the background image. I've checked the URL of the image and it's set correctly.

Is there something else I can do for the sideboxes?

Just checked and your stylesheet does not have a background image called out

BTW: What are you using to edit your files??

Where do you believe the correct image location is? Template images go in /includes/templates/your_template/images/your_image.ext.

I'm using the built-in normal template, I thought I was meant to put it in the "template_default" tree of folders, but I've since moved it to the "classic" tree of folders instead and found I can get it working there. It's working fine now.

I found it in a different thread - http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=57809

All sorted :) Cheers!
