Codezwiz >> Forums >> General PHP Nuke Help >> Need help placing ads inside header graphic.

My header currently loads as one image. I laid the site out in Firewroks and sliced it up, but I am not savvy enough to implement that way using PHP. I would like to take out a specific size of the exsisting header. 234X60 to place either Google ads or my own banner rotation device.
Can anyone help guide me in the right direction?
Thanks...

Just slice it, and make sure one of your slices is the size of the ad you wanna place. Slices are built in html tables in the slice you want the ad make the original image for that slice the background of that table. Your table code will look like this

Thanks for the reply, but which file will I edit..is it header.php?

In your theme folder it will be header.html

I appreciate the insight, but I only have an index.html and a theme.php within the root of the theme I am using. And here is the code that relates to my header and its image..the "topp.jpg" is the header image.

/************************************************************/
/* Function themeheader() */
/************************************************************/

function themeheader() {
global $banners;
echo "<body bgcolor=\"#81AFE6\" text=\"#000000\" leftmargin=\"0\" topmargin=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\">"
."";
if ($banners) {
include("banners.php");
}

echo "<table border=\"0\" class=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"770\" align=\"center\">\n"
."<tr><td width=\"100%\">\n"
."<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"770\">\n"
."<tr><td width=\"100%\">\n"
."<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"770\">\n"
."<tr><td width=\"100%\" height=\"1\" bgcolor=\"#3C599B\">\n"
."<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\"><tr><td align=\"center\">";

echo "</td><td align=\"right\"><img border=\"0\" src=\"themes/ChipperXTheme/images/topp.jpg\"></td></tr></table></td></tr>\n"
."<tr><td width=\"100%\" bgcolor=\"#3C599B\" height=\"0\" valign=\"bottom\">\n"
."<img src=\"themes/ChipperXTheme/images/bar.gif\" width=\"770\" height=\"26\" usemap=\"#Map\" border=\"0\">\n"

."</td></tr><tr><td width=\"100%\"><table width='100%' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0' border='0'><tr><td bgcolor='#3C599B'>\n"
;
$public_msg = public_message();
echo "$public_msg";
echo "</td></tr></table><table width=\"770\" cellpadding=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n"
."<tr valign=\"top\">\n"
."<td></td>\n"
."<td width=\"130\" bgcolor=\"#3C599B\" valign=\"top\">\n";
blocks(left);
echo "</td><td></td><td width=\"100%\">\n";
}

echo "</td><td align=\"right\"><img border=\"0\" src=\"themes/ChipperXTheme/images/topp.jpg\"></td></tr></table></td></tr>\n"

Thanks again for the help, but there is no code in my index.html file..All my code lies within the theme.php. I tried to replace it there, because that is where the code came from, but it didnt work...nothing but a white page.
I have attached my entire theme , as it sits on my server. I also included the new images with the cuts I desire..
See what you think..
Thanks alot for the help.

I see the cuts do you have the html for the images?
