Need some help with the header

[Tjobbe]

hey everyone.

 

I've changed the look and feel of many oscommerce templates but have not done anything like this before, its probably not that complicated but I can't do it without any help >_< , hence im here!

 

I have managed to change the logo for the header, but I want to set a background image for the top as well. how do i do this?

 

I also want to delete the three images that are there now (the My Account | Cart Contents | Checkout ones), how can i do that?

 

and replace it with a new image, aligned to the right. it will be the same height as the logo, how would i do that?

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

Go to catalog/includes/header.php around line 57/58

 

 

I think this is line 57 replace you logo and discription and put in <center></center> tags.

 

<td valign="middle"> <center> <?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . ' My logo.jpg ', ' Welcome to My logo Website ') . ' </center> </a>'; ?></td>

 

I think this is line 58 add tags <!-- --> to the front and end off lines to remove top buttons.

 

<!--<td align="right" valign="bottom"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_account.gif', HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT) . '</a>  <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_cart.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS) . '</a>  <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_checkout.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT) . '</a>'; ?>  </td>-->

If you want COMPLETE control of the layout and "look and feel" of your site why not use the STS Template Contiution at:
