[SOLVED] Display Header BG according to page alias?

[CapereSpiritum]

Hi

I've a fishing website that I've recently converted to CMSMS.
Best Fishing

It used to be a complicated static site but after conversion I've lost the ability to display a header image according to the section of the website.

In the old site I had a class in the body tag like this;

Code: Select all

</__body class=coarse-fishing>

And a css class in the header TD like this

Code: Select all

<td class="Header" id="headerimage">

The CSS to call the image is this

Code: Select all

BODY.coarse-fishing #headerimage {
	BACKGROUND: url(Fishing_Tackle/Images/Header-Tench.gif) no-repeat left top
}

I'm attampting to do similar but using {page_alias} and an apropriately named image.

Now using 'divs'. Header div is called 'header'

Anyone know what the correct CSS is?

I'm very interested in this.
I solved with differents templates and stilesheets, changing only header, logo, but this is no possible when there are too many sections

Are you aware of the possibility to choose an image in the options tab while creating/editing a page?

If that's not what you're looking for take a look at the tag {content_image}. It gives the user/you the possibility to choose an image per page.

</__body class='{$page_alias}'>

Install and use CGISimpleSmarty module then you can easily use images based upon section.

That seemed the most practical way to go.
Thanks all

Using differents templates and stylesheets is not the way to go as it increases maintenance and admin time and is not necessary. You should make as few as possible. You can do lots of useful things by utilising the url i.e. {$page_alias} Take a look at CGISimpleSmarty it is well worth it. Also you should use global content blocks as much as possible in templates such as for the head and footer, search block, main menu etc
