This file is my header file for my torn city game. i really wanted to make the content and side panel box transparent so i could see the cool picture i used for my background. I assumed that was inpossible so wanted to change the bachground of the side panel and main menu to the same as my background but all the code i tryed did not work??? any advice? Thanks Jeff Quote
POG1 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Re: help with php image/color code Setting the bg image isnt php its html or css. Bluedevil u didn't help much, seeing as he asked for a color not image. To do it simply just find the open <body> change it so something like this <body bgcolor="#000"> Quote
jpoke5 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 Re: help with php image/color code No , I wanted to change the $bgcolor = '000000'; to something that shows an image but i dont know how to fromat the code to make it work. Posting the standard image tag (<body background="drkrainbow.gif">) returns an error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/mymicro/public_html/header.php on line 190 Im looking for a tag that follows that $ Jeff Quote
shedh Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Re: help with php image/color code simple html aint it? in the css put body { background-image: url(/images/foo.gif) } obviously replacing /images/foo.gif to the url of your image Quote
mdshare Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Re: help with php image/color code if you look at the pasted piece of source you will notice it's the bgcolor of a td <td width="20%" bgcolor="#$bgcolor" valign="top"> so to have it a background image instead of a color in the td <td bgimage="whatever.jpg"> Quote
jpoke5 Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 Re: help with php image/color code $gn=""; global $staffpage; $bgcolor = '000000'; print <<<OUT [img=heroes2.jpg] <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="20%" bgcolor="#$bgcolor" valign="top"> nop that dont work, stupid shit...LOL Quote

Bluedevil u didn't help much, seeing as he asked for a color not image. To do it simply just find the open <body> change it so something like this <body bgcolor="#000"> Read again... he asked for an image, but now that he posted more after the reply.... you can see he wants to change the background of a table data cell.

Isomerizer Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Re: help with php image/color code I'm not sure what this guy wants, or if hes gonna get much help with remarks like "stupid shit".. Try changing <td width="20%" bgcolor="#$bgcolor" valign="top"> to <td width="20%" style = "background-image: url(".$bgcolor.");" valign="top"> then $bgcolor = '000000'; to $bgcolor = 'imagename.gif'; // or w/e this the image name and dir Quote
