How to link front page image

[graphicman]

Hi i would like to link the main index image to the specials page, can someone help with this please.

I think that this is the code i need to change

 

<tr>

<td class="main2" valign="top"><img src="images/indeximage.png" alt="Fancy Dress Leeds" border="0" height="375" width="500"></td>

</tr>

 

The website is www.fancydressbonanza.co.uk and the image is the xmas on in the middle

 

Thanks in advance

A image link to the specials page would look like this

<?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'my_image.jpg', 'my image title') . '</a>'; ?>

 

You can place this into any html structure (<table><tr><td><div> etc etc)

Thanks George for your reply. I played aroung with the code you gave me but no luck. Could you please tell me where i need to put this code for it to work.

 

Cheers

The "code" I gave you is a simple link to the specials page. You can place it anywhere and it will display an image, where you click and it goes to specials.php.

If you want to replace the christmas image you have now, then go to your file index.php, find where it says

<tr><td class="main2" valign="top"><img src="images/indeximage.png" border="0" alt="" width="500" height="375"></td></td>

and replace it with

<tr><td class="main2" valign="top"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'indeximage.png', 'Fancy Christmas') . '</a>'; ?></td></tr>

 

What exactly didn't work when you tried?

Hello again George

 

thanks for you reply, right, i've replaced that line in public_html/includes/index.php but it did not even change the image. To change the image George i had to alter this line define('TEXT_MAIN', '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="2"><tr><td class="main2" valign="top">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'indeximage.png') . '</td>');

in /public_html/includes/languages/english/index.php. So that seems to be the line that alters that image, i just dont know how to make it link to specials.

 

In public_html/index.php the line you spoke about does not even exist.

 

So my friend i am now banging my head against the wall lol

 

Thanks again for any help you can give me

Well, ok, the usual place to add the image would not be the language file, for me.

 

Anyway, now, in file includes/languages/english/index.php, the place you found the image, just change the line you have with following

define('TEXT_MAIN', '<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="2"><tr><td class="main2" valign="top">' . '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SPECIALS) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'indeximage.png', 'Fancy Christmas') . '</a>' . '</td>'); 

 

Any reason why the closing </tr> is missing?

Thanks
