My first foray into the world of PHPNuke.

How can I get my logo to resize based on what resolution the users has.

Needs further work, but its a start.

Here's a Javascript that displays a different image for different screen resolutions. You'll need to make three different images of your logo at different sizes and change the dimensions in the script to match the dimensions of your images.

So this would go in the top of the header.html in my themes directory?

This is what is on the top of the header.html

<div align="center"><table width="99%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" background="themes/3rdID_Chronicles/images/body_background.jpg"></div>
  <tr>
    <td><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
        <tr>
          <td width="60%"><a href="index.php"><img src="themes/3rdID_Chronicles/images/logo.gif" border="0" alt="Welcome to $sitename"></a></td>
          <td width="40%">$showbanners</td>
        </tr>
      </table>

Add the entire script into this cell between the <a href="index.php"></a> tags.

<td width="60%"><a href="index.php"><img src="themes/3rdID_Chronicles/images/logo.gif" border="0" alt="Welcome to $sitename"></a></td>


In the script, where you see

if (screen.height >= 768 && screen.width >= 1024) {
document.write("<img src='http://your-web-site-address-here.com/image.gif' width=850 height=11 border=0>");
}
else {
if (screen.height == 600 && screen.width == 800) {
document.write("<img src='http://your-web-site-address-here.com/image.gif' width=600 height=11 border=0>");
}
else {
document.write("<img src='http://your-web-site-address-here.com/image.gif' width=475 height=11 border=0>");


Change the src="" to match the path for your images. Then change the height and width to match the dimensions of the images you made.

Like this:

if (screen.height >= 768 && screen.width >= 1024) {
document.write("<img src='themes/3rdID_Chronicles/images/logo.gif' width=850 height=11 border=0 alt=Welcome to $sitename>");
}

Hey thanks alot. I would really like to get a new theme for it though. Chronicles is a little worn out. Something Olive Drab, WW2 grunge, and Third Infantry related would be great.

I don't think CodeWiz does custom work though.

I like the WYSIWYG editor on these forums. Are these available for download?

WOW donovan
I run Chronicles on [ Register or login to view links on this board. ] but I love the way you have an image that spans the entire header or the site. I am fairly new at this...


How can I do that with a pic of our sanctuary or something like that?

Thanks!

Dane

You have to edit the header.html. Open the header file and look at the 6th line from the top. You have to change the length from 60% to 100%

Here is the original line
<td width="60%"><a href="index.php"><img src="themes/Chronicles/images/logo.gif" border="0" alt="Welcome to $sitename"></a></td>
          <td width="40%">$showbanners</td>
        </tr>
      </table>


And here is what I did:
<td width="100%"><a href="index.php"><center><img src="themes/3rdID_Chronicles/images/logo.gif" border="0" alt="Welcome to $sitename"></center></a></td>
        </tr>
      </table>



I added some "center" tags so the logo would center when someone has a different screen resolution.

I still need to implement the fix that Kelly posted. Your logo can be approximatly 995 pixels in length at 1024 resolution.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

Hope this helps

Thanks Donovan, for your posts here and on my site. It was very kind of you.

N/P on taking so long to get back to me, I have been very busy with my "breadwinning" job anyway. Things are slowing down now and I'll be getting back on the site soon.

Thanks again!

Dane
