creating image with out box, static image in box

[SpangieUK]

I am having two problems at the moment - both relating to images!

 

I want to add an image in the column_left.php with no info box - basically a .gif that gives a guarantee to my customers. I found some code on the wiki site for the first problem -

 

< table><td><tr><img src="/images/guarantee.gif" width="150" height="125" border="1"></tr></td></table>

 

but I keep getting a parse error.

 

The second thing I am trying to do is create a new box (done that) - but in the box I just want to have an image with no links - ie Spend over ?X and get this free. at the moment I have the text I want - the image is displayed with the dreaded red X and the page links to another .php file. I dont want a link - just a static box!!

 

I am on day three of trying to sort this and am really getting frustrated. Pleaseeee can someone help?

Ok on the top of your colum_left.php document you need to insert a PHP echo command because in PHP you cannot just write in plain html w/out thsi command. So paste the following

 

echo('<table><td><tr><img src="/images/guarantee.gif" width="150" height="125" border="1"></tr></td></table>

 

');

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, however if you create a box called spend_over.php then you would have to do this in one of your column files. (ex column_left.php)

 

 

require(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

 

This will tell that column "HEY PUT THIS BOX HERE". You may have to consider that you have to have proper table tags in your "spend_over.php" file, however you can probably just refer to a simple box to find the table tags.

 

Not sure if I just confused you, but thats my shot at explaining.

Thanks so much for replying to me!! I have finally sorted it!! The first problem was cool. You sorted that (although I changed the order of the table cell and row around.

 

The second problem was more tricky. I had to edit the actaul box-info file. Basically did it bit by bit until I had a static box with and image in it when it was calling the array in php english file.

 

(just incase anyone else needs to know!!)

 

Thanks again for your assistance.

 

I am very happy now!!
