trying to change sidebox header w/image

[tonkali]

I'm trying to replace the sidebox headers with images and have implemented this with 1 header, Categories (which has been renamed to Products).

The second header "Reviews" is not rendering, below is my code:

My includes/languages/CUSTOM/english.php reads:

define('BOX_HEADING_REVIEWS', 'reviews_hdr.gif');

and I have added in my includes/modules/sideboxes/CUSTOM/categories.php:

$title = zen_image($template->get_template_dir(BOX_HEADING_CATEGORIES, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . BOX_HEADING_REVIEWS);
    $title_link = false;

but it's producing only the image name, HERE

Can someone please help to enlighten me

I don't get this, I followed the tut and even tried styling it out:

#reviewsHeading {
background: url(../images/reviews_hdr.gif) no-repeat fixed #FDF48B;
margin: 0em;
padding: 0em;
}

and it doesn't work

Coding incorrect
should be

#reviewsHeading {
background-image: url(../images/reviews_hdr.gif);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
margin: 0em;
padding: 0em;
}

Actually, that shorthand background property is correctly coded, and is even a recommended way to do it where practical.

You might want to look at the Image Titles mod, which takes care of the coding more efficiently and only requires you to load images named according to a system for whichever boxes you want to use them on.

So posters original css code should be working then if
image path set correctly?

[gjh42]

If all else is kosher, yes. I didn't look at whether the CSS will get applied where it is wanted, only that the property is correctly coded.

Thanks for clarifying..visited member's site,
reviews heading looks to be working ok now.

The reviews heading is applied to the categories box. The reviews box still has the filename showing instead of the image.

Tonkali, the method you are using will require you to edit a separate file for every sidebox; Image Titles does the edit in one file for left boxes and one for right boxes, and also accounts for the "[more]" after some box headings, which the cleanest method, specifying the whole image output in the define, doesn't do.
