Hi all icon_biggrin.gif

Need some help icon_rolleyes.gif

i want too make my theme like this 1 where there is a image for the block titles.

i am read a previous post but then the subject changed...

i tried 2 different ways

both in blocks.php and blocks.html

first try:

<table width=200 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
  <tr>
    <td height="81">

<?php
    if (file_exists("themes/LowTech/blocks/modules/$title.gif")) {
   echo "<center><img src=\"themes/LowTech/blocks/modules/$title.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\"><br><br>";
    } else {
      echo "<center><font class=\"option\"><b>$title</b></font></center><br><br>";
    }
?>

   </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td background="themes/LowTech/images/blocks_02.gif">
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
        <tr>
          <td height=5 colspan="3"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td width="24"> ;;</td>
          <td width="152"><font class="content">$content</font> </td>
          <td height=5 width="24"> ;;</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td colspan="3"></td>
        </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><img src="themes/LowTech/images/blocks_03.gif" width=200 height=48 alt=""></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table width="200" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" background="themes/LowTech/images/blocks_05.gif">
  <tr>
    <td height=15></td>
  </tr>
</table>


Second Try:


<table width=200 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0>
  <tr>
    <td height="81">

<?php
//Begin title switch by Telli
        if (!empty($title)) {


                        $img_name=explode(" ",$title);
                        $img_namecz=$img_name[0];
                        if(file_exists("themes/LowTech/images/modules/$img_namecz.gif")) {
                                echo "<center><IMG SRC=\"themes/LowTech/images/modules/$img_namecz.gif\"></center>";
                        } else {
                                echo "<center><font color=\"FFFFFF\"><b>$title</b></font></center>";
                        }
        }
?>
   </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td background="themes/LowTech/images/blocks_02.gif">
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
        <tr>
          <td height=5 colspan="3"></td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td width="24"> ;;</td>
          <td width="152"><font class="content">$content</font> </td>
          <td height=5 width="24"> ;;</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
          <td colspan="3"></td>
        </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><img src="themes/LowTech/images/blocks_03.gif" width=200 height=48 alt=""></td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table width="200" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" background="themes/LowTech/images/blocks_05.gif">
  <tr>
    <td height=15></td>
  </tr>
</table>


and both Did Not work!

Heres wot i got in my theme.php


function themesidebox($title, $content) {
    $tmpl_file = "themes/LowTech/blocks.php";
    $thefile = implode("", file($tmpl_file));
    $thefile = addslashes($thefile);
    $thefile = "\$r_file=\"".$thefile."\";";
    eval($thefile);
    print $r_file;
}
?>


or


function themesidebox($title, $content) {
    $tmpl_file = "themes/LowTech/blocks.html";
    $thefile = implode("", file($tmpl_file));
    $thefile = addslashes($thefile);
    $thefile = "\$r_file=\"".$thefile."\";";
    eval($thefile);
    print $r_file;
}
?>


Have tried making the blocks.php and full php file and i got the same result... not working icon_cry.gif

this is wot it looks like

[img]Removed[/img]

and different when i try the other methods... but it never displays the image

Some questions you may ask

Is the image the same name as the blocks?
Yes, i no about the Case, and it matches

Is the image located as the Image URL is stated?
Yes the image is in the themes folder LowTech, and with another folder called modules, this is where the image is stored: themes/LowTech/images/modules/

Hope some1 can help
Thanks in Adv

blocks.php

title

<?php
        if (!empty($title)) {


                        $img_name=explode(" ",$title);
                        $img_nametwo=$img_name[0];
                        if(file_exists("themes/YOUR_THEME/images/blocks/$img_nametwo.gif")) {
                                echo "<IMG SRC=\"themes/YOUR_THEME/images/blocks/$img_nametwo.gif\">";
                        } else {
                                echo "<font class=\"blocktitle\"><b>$title</b>";
                        }
        }
?>


content

<?php
echo "$content\n"
?>


Then in your theme

function themesidebox($title, $content) {

        include("themes/YOUR_THEME/blocks.php");
}


The name of the image must match the title case does count.

Look at your paths.



themes/LowTech/images/blocks/$img_nametwo.gif

On your image its just themes/LowTech/blocks
