I was wondering is anyone knew hot to add banners above the links. I thought it would be a pretty cool option to have .

Does anyone know where I would need to start ?


Thank You and Have A Great Day,
Lpluby


------------------

Go to site_html.pl and add the code to the html where you want it. If you need more help just email me.

Thank you for responding to the question I had. I know how to do that what I would like to do is to add a field of a url of banner to the link that will appear before the description of the link. Any ideas ?


Thanks,
Lpluby

Yes their is a way, go to Bears Guide To Add A Field at members.xoom.com/bear118 follow his instucstions and call it banner now open your site_html.pl under sub site_html_link { right above <ul type=disc><li><$font><a href="$build_jump_url?$db_key=$rec{$db_key}">$rec{'Title' }</a></font>|; (if you want it above the title) put
<a href="$build_jump_url?$db_key=$rec{$db_key}"><IMG SCR="$rec{'banner'}" Alt="$rec{'Title'}"></a>|;

P.S. This will cause you to have allot of imgages on your pages, are you sure you want to do this?

Thank You for responding. I was wondering if there was a way to have only the administrator to have the option to add a banner above the link.

Thanks,

Do like what my above message said, and add a new field called ShowBanner but change
<a href="$build_jump_url?$db_key=$rec{$db_key}"><IMG SCR="$rec{'banner'} Alt="$rec{'Title'}"></a>|;
to
if ($rec{'ShowBanner'} eq "Yes") { $output .= qq~ <a href="$build_jump_url?$db_key=$rec{$db_key}"><IMG SCR="$rec{'banner'}" Alt="$rec{'Title'}"></a>~; }
Then if you wanted to show a banner in the ShowBanner field check/put in Yes(depending on how you make the field, i.e out it radio buttons or checkboxexs youlld have to check one, or put them in a select field, Make the default No that way you dont get any blanks in there
Thanks

hmmm, you can just add the http for the banner inside the description of the link. Would that do the trick. I haven't tried it but maybe you can insert the code for the title of the link, then it would be above the description. Keith
