Replace Logo Link w/ Banner

[kobra]

I've got the flash loaded. My problem is getting rid of the icon.

I looked at it in FF and IE and do not know what icon you are referring to???
The pic that you thought you loaded in an earlier post was not available.

Viewing the header it appears to all be swf...no separate logo image that I could see.

Just refreshed in IE and there is a small box with a red X in it...is this what you are referring to??
Right click reveals that this is a second instance of "header.swf"...

You have commented out what I consider too much in at least 2 areas;

At about line #121 and line #185 in your stylesheet.css. I did not see any relavance to having these commented out and will affect display of the associated items that are also included when you customers load the pages where these are rendered.

Thanks Kobra! How would I get rid of this second instance of header.swf?

[kobra]

It should not be there and one would have to have access to the code changes that installed the swf to even make a guess....Have you inadvertantly attempted to get this working through more than one file? If you are using the overrides check all the files that you have touched for this.

[Lawbird123]

Yeah, I did try a couple different methods to get the swf header working... I think thats fixed, but now my swf and main body of the cart are colliding with each other. Do I need to adjust the margin size somewhere?

[kobra]

Not sure but viewing your source I am still seeing 2 instances of the swf:

<!--bof-navigation display-->

<div id="navMainWrapper">

<div id="navMain">

    <ul class="back">

    <li>
	<object width="800" height="144" margin-top="0">

                
                <embed src="http://www.studiostyles.net/studiostyles_0905/store/zen-cart-090706/includes/templates/jlawless/images/header.swf" width="800" height="144"></embed>
                
                </object></a></li>

And

<!--bof-branding display-->

<div id="logoWrapper">

    <div id="logo"><a href="http://www.studiostyles.net/studiostyles_0905/store/zen-cart-090706/"><img src="includes/templates/jlawless/images/header.swf" alt="Studio Styles" title=" Studio Styles " width="800" height="144" /></a></div>


</div>

I would look at your tpl_header.php once again as I think that the second one with the alt="Studio Styles" is the one showing up below with the red "X" in the box. But this might be the one that should be retained but you might want to reorder the nav to be below the branding.

i've got a good solution to the flash embed/activation problem. i've submitted it as a contribution but they haven't posted it yet for download (i think it's heading for the 'other modules' section).

in the meantime, i've made it available here at ############llc.com

just 1 php function call handles the javascript and html output. sure beats going to a code generator every time you want to embed flash. not to mention just 1 line of code makes putting it anywhere you want a lot easier to manage the surrounding code.

hope this helps.

Kobra,

In my tpl_header.php I have the navigation display code as follows:

<!--bof-navigation display-->

<div id="navMainWrapper">

<div id="navMain">

    <ul class="back">

    <li>
	<object width="800" height="144" margin-top="0">
                
                <embed src="http://www.studiostyles.net/studiostyles_0905/store/zen-cart-090706/includes/templates/jlawless/images/header.swf" width="800" height="144"></embed>
                
                </object></a></li>

<?php if ($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>

    <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a></li>

    <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li>

<?php

      } else {

        if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {

?>

    <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a></li>

<?php } } ?>



<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>

    <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a></li>

    <li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a></li>

<?php }?>

</ul>

</div>

<div class="navMainSearch forward"><?php require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'sideboxes/search_header.php'); ?></div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

</div>

<!--eof-navigation display-->

And, then, my branding display as follows:

<!--bof-branding display-->

<div id="logoWrapper">

    <div id="logo"><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, HEADER_ALT_TEXT) . '</a>'; ?></div>

<?php if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '' || (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2))) { ?>

    <div id="taglineWrapper">

<?php

              if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '') {

?>

      <div id="tagline"><?php echo HEADER_SALES_TEXT;?></div>

<?php

              }

?>

<?php

              if (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2)) {

                if ($banner->RecordCount() > 0) {

?>

      <div id="bannerTwo" class="banners"><?php echo zen_display_banner('static', $banner);?></div>

<?php

                }

              }

?>

    </div>

<?php } // no HEADER_SALES_TEXT or SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 ?>

</div>

<br class="clearBoth" />

<!--eof-branding display-->

When I open the page, I see the source code that you have posted, but I'm not sure how to change that out in the tpl_header.php because I'm not "seeing" it. I see the "php echo<a href= blah blah blah" and I think thats looking at something else. I have replaced my logo.gif with header.swf in both my server_info.php as well as my header.php because I thought I had to change out every instance of logo.gif that could be found with the developer's tool kit. Should I undo this? If so, what should be put in the header.php and server_info.php? I will try moving my navigation display.

############llc,

I've been trying to work your solution into my zencart, but that doesn't seem to be working either. I'm pretty sure I'm following the instructions properly, but I keep getting the following error messages on my catalog site:


Warning: main(includes/templates/template_default/nnez_com/nnez_flo_output.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/s/t/u/mysite/html/mycart/includes/init_includes/init_general_funcs.php on line 75

Any ideas as to what I might be doing wrong?

[Lawbird123]

Right now, there's only one instance of the swf. I just need to know how to make room for the header in my page. The swf in the footer seems to be working well and is positioned properly. I did the same thing in the tpl_footer.php as I did in the tpl_header.php. Here is my tpl_header.php code:

<?php

/**

 *

 * this file can be copied to /templates/your_template_dir/pagename<br />

 * make a directory /templates/my_template/privacy<br />

 * copy /templates/templates_defaults/common/tpl_footer.php to /templates/my_template/privacy/tpl_header.php<br />

 * to override the global settings and turn off the footer un-comment the following line:<br />

 * <br />

 * $flag_disable_header = true;<br />

<?php

  if ($messageStack->size('header') > 0) {

    echo $messageStack->output('header');

  }

  if (isset($_GET['error_message']) && zen_not_null($_GET['error_message'])) {

  echo htmlspecialchars(urldecode($_GET['error_message']));

  }

  if (isset($_GET['info_message']) && zen_not_null($_GET['info_message'])) {

   echo htmlspecialchars($_GET['info_message']);

} else {

Any ideas on how I can fix this issue?

[kobra]

The <!--bof-branding display--> and the contents to and including <!--eof-branding display-->

Should be right before the <!--bof-navigation display--> so that it is contained within the headerWrapper div.
