*Edit - I figured it out*

Hi everyone. I just recently had a custom x-cart developed and it was installed a couple days ago. Now I'm just learning how to edit templates. So far I've done a few small things like center the cart, change width size, change background colors, etc.

What I want to do next is replace the menu titles with my own images. Instead of having a small image (dingbat) and a text version of "Services" or "Special" or "Help" etc., I would like to have one image in there that says what the title should be (no actual text). Hope that makes sense. Any idea how I can accomplish this?. Example code would be great!

Thanks,

Ryan

So how did you do it?

[concepts]

the menu title uses a css sheet color for the background color

The text is then held in languages > english

The only image you can change from default is the dialog bg box, the menus on the side are just regular html/css coding.

If you want to lay down a background, thats a different story.

You may want to stay away from images, search engines index text better just so you know.

It just takes some figuring out. Kinda difficult to explain. You should use webmaster mode though. Here is something to start with.

This code is in the bottom of my menu_service.tpl. The image is the title image I want to use for my services.

{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="services_1.jpg" menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu }

You should also set the width/height in menu.tpl.

With something like this

<TD class=VertMenuTitle height=26>{$link_begin}[img]{$ImagesDir}/{$dingbats}[/img]{$link_end}</TD>

The image is 150x20 in size.
