Images in menu buttons

[blazinchuck]

it seems to do the exact same thing....it looks just like it does right now

[Kays]

Can you move it back there so I can have a look at it?

[blazinchuck]

you bet...np....this is it... http://palmettoperformancediesels.com


also...its not opening a new window for the facebook...can this be changed as well?

[Kays]

It looks like it's picking up the background image from #tabs6.

Try this instead. I'm hoping it will override those images.

Code Select Expand


    echo '
        <div style="background-color: #222222:'><a href="http://m.facebook.com/group.php?gid=111056478946616//"><img src="http://palmettoperformancediesels.com/gallery/2_21_07_10_7_27_45.png""/></a></div>
  </div>';

The file you tried to save generated the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in index.template.php on line 531

[blazinchuck]

i put this one back in

Code Select Expand

   echo '
    </ul>';
    echo '
        <a href="http://m.facebook.com/group.php?gid=111056478946616//"><img src="http://palmettoperformancediesels.com/gallery/2_21_07_10_7_27_45.png""/></a>

   echo '

    echo '

  </div>'; this is what was replaced with your last code btw

Ooops there was an error with that code. Try this.

Code Select Expand


   echo '
    </ul>';

    echo '
        <div style="background-color: #222222:"><a href="http://m.facebook.com/group.php?gid=111056478946616//"><img src="http://palmettoperformancediesels.com/gallery/2_21_07_10_7_27_45.png""/></a></div>
  </div>';

well, that good rid of the error...button the button still looks a lil funky lol(really looks the same)

[blazinchuck]

heres a screenshot of what the facebook button looks like

[Kays]

Try this instead. I'm hoping that using the nav class might override that style

Code Select Expand


   echo '
    </ul>';

    echo '
        <div class="nav"><a href="http://m.facebook.com/group.php?gid=111056478946616//"><img src="http://palmettoperformancediesels.com/gallery/2_21_07_10_7_27_45.png""/></a></div>
  </div>';


I see that you're trying to add a link to Notepad. Check the support topic for that mod. I believe that I posted how to do so for a nav bar similar to yours.

found out something today...while i was messing with the button for facebook. i went back to the code Kays posted with the <span> tags to see if i could use that and just make the facebook icon small so it wouldnt make the style of the button so much taller than the others. well when i did, the other buttons"media,members,logout,facebook...didnt drop down like they have been...only the facebook button dropped down(when selecting the media gallery). i removed the span tags and i back to just the FB icon for a button(still has another button image trying to work there in the same spot) ive attached the latest screenshot.

also, this is the latest code if needed also...were in this code would i add the "target"=blank (for external linking)?Thanks

    echo '

A bit of a long shot. Look for the begining of the menu bar.

Code Select Expand


echo '<div id="tabs6">
<ul>';


And try placing this code before it:

Code Select Expand


echo '
  <div style="float: right;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1179741554#!/group.php?gid=111056478946616&ref=mf//" target="_blank"><img src="http://palmettoperformancediesels.com/gallery/2_21_07_10_7_27_45.png""/></a></div>
  </div>';


For the media button, try the following:

Code Select Expand


if (allowedTo('aeva_access'))
echo '<li', $current_action == 'media' ? ' id="chosen"' : '', '><a href="', $scripturl, '?action=media"><span>', isset($txt['aeva_gallery']) ? $txt['aeva_gallery'] : 'Media', $aeva_unseen ? '</span></a> <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=media;sa=unseen">[<b>' . $aeva_unseen . '</b>]' : '', '</a></li>';
