Open file "skin1/skin1.css", find line:

PHP Code:


		
			
HTML,BODY {
....

Insert after (for exampl.):

PHP Code:


		
			
BACKGROUND: url(images/bg.gif) repeat-x;

where bg.gif - background images...

Re: modifying some stuff but not getting far!

Ok, here is a trick question. If you put a background image for "BODY" the same background image will show up in your popups. How would I get rid of the background image in the popups?

Re: modifying some stuff but not getting far!

Show an example of a site with such popups where this is happening?

There are several ways of opening popups. :)

Re: modifying some stuff but not getting far!

I don't have an example, but popup_files.tpl, popup_images.tpl, popup_image_selection.tpl and probably one or two more that I missed all contain the instruction "<link rel="stylesheet" href="{$SkinDir}/{#CSSFile#}>" or some derivative. Since in the "CSSFile" the BODY calls a image, then it would show up as the body anywhere the "CSSFile" is referenced. I created a new "popup.css" and hardcoded that wherever a css was linked in a popup. I just figure there has to be an easier way. I tried adding an image background to "container" but didn't have much success.

Re: modifying some stuff but not getting far!

I get it that way (example for file "skin1/main/popup_iamge.tpl"):

Create file "skin1/test.css"

PHP Code:


		
			
BODY,DIV,TH,TD,P,INPUT,SELECT,TEXTAREA,TT {
    FONT-FAMILY: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-serif;
    COLOR: #550000;
    FONT-SIZE: 10px;
}
HTML,BODY {
    HEIGHT: 100%;
    MARGIN: 0px;
    PADDING: 0px;
    BACKGROUND-IMAGE: url(images/admin_xlogo.gif);
}

Edit file "skin1/main/popup_iamge.tpl", replaced this line:

PHP Code:


		
			
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{if $area eq 'C'}{$SkinDir}/{#CSSFile#}{else}{$SkinDir}/skin1_admin.css{/if}" />

at this line

PHP Code:


		
			
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{$SkinDir}/test.css" />
