How do I place images on any page?

[Guest]

I am not sure what I need to type in the ecommerce/os/catalog/includes/languages/english/index.php to place pics wherever I want them.

 

 

Thanks for your help.

You want to place pics wherever you want them :D What does that mean? If you place a picture into english/index.php it is only on the startpage, e.g.

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', 'tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'default/1.gif') . "Some blind text..."');

 

But you can also do it the standard way using the image tag.

 

define('TEXT_MAIN', '<img src="pic.jpg" />Some blind text...');

Thank you for the help. I am very new to this. When either of the above in with a link to my picture I want displayed, I just get TEXT_MAIN at the top of the page.

This code above works, when I try to replace the text with the picture code it does not.

Most likely you have inadvertently removed a control character when editing that file. Seeing TEXT_MAIN like that is usually the result. As far as placing images where you want, it depends on where you want them. If you want them in the body of your index page, then youcan add them to the laguages/english/index.php page. If you want them in your header, like your logo, then place them in includes/header.php. If you want them in the left or right columns, then edit includes/column_left.php and/or includes/column_right.php.

So where should I type the code above? Underneath the text main that already exists and if so, do I need any seperators, etc..

 

Thanks again...

[Guest]

Anyone else with any suggestions/solutions?

 

 

Thanks,

The above method will work, although it is not complete, and it is not the way youwill usually see it. Not that that is wrong, but it may confuse you. The problem is that what code you use will somewhat depend on where you want to insert an image. Let's say you want to insert an image into your header. Open the includes/header.php file and find this code

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1">
 <tr class="headerNavigation">
   <td class="headerNavigation">  <?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(' » '); ?></td>
   <td align="right" class="headerNavigation"><?php if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) { ?><a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a>  |  <?php } ?><a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a>  |  <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a>  |  <a href="<?php echo tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>" class="headerNavigation"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a>   </td>
 </tr>
</table>

Then right underneath that place this code

 <table width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
<?php echo '<img border="0" src="images/some_image.jpg" width="120" height="172" alt="Some Text">'; ?>
</td>
</tr>
</table>[CODE]Hopefully this will get you started.
