    Default Subcategory Image with html image map?

    I'd really like to add links to a subcategory image. Has anybody ever done this? Can you share your notes/procedure. Can I attach my HTML somewhere? Thank you in advance.

    I will address your html question:

    You can include html but only after you close your php tags.
    If you want to include html content without closing your php here is what I do.

    in your includes folder I add a folder named html_includes.

    I then add my html content in a file and name it something like block_1.html and place it inside the html_includes folder.

    I then add this bit of code in php where I want my html formatting to be placed.

    <?php include('includes/html_includes/block_1.html'); ?>

    The html file (block_1.html in my case) will not have formatting that calls for open and close head and body tags.

    Thank you for the info. I am somewhat a beginner, does anybody know how to find the proper PHP file to edit in this situation?

    To be more specific, I'd like to add an imagemap to my subcategory image.

    Hey Chauncey,
    If you find a solution, perhaps you should post it here in this thread. Just a suggestion.

    You're right. I will do some homework, figure out how it's done, and post it here. It may be a bit more complicated than expected, but I'll keep everybody informed.

    I did get some info for you guys. This type of customization is best left to the advanced PHP programmers. I myself am still a novice. Here's what I did, I hired myself a knowledgeable and ambitious programmer with plenty of php experience. He knew exactly what needed to be done.
