Brochure Button Images

[sgtbash]

Correct me if i am wrong...

In the General settings of a brochure page, is the "Button image" for the navigation? Where it says home, products, loging etc.

and the same for "Button Rollover Image"

if not, what is it for?

WHATEVER i put in those boxes, it will display the same image as my home page link.

and it will do it for EVERY brochure page i have no matter what i have in those two boxes.

PLEASE HELP!!! THIS IS DOING MY HEAD IN!!

the url for where it is occuring is:

There MUST be an easier way that this, but this is the way i do it every time.

Click your home page, go into design view and select the layout code (on the bottom) and click on one of the text links, press the "Navigate to parent layout" (the yellow spiral with the up arrow on) unil the layout code box has the text "Horizontal Nav Bar Text Links" highlighted, (the title of the layout code box says something along the lines of ...header...

type above the "Horizontal Nav Bar Text Links"..

navigationbar

(actinic will guess what you want before so it select it from the box.

press apply - you should then see the images as well.

to get rid of the text ones, remove the text "Horizontal Nav Bar Text Links"

you can then click on the images and edit them via code view.

Hope that made sence and helps, i do it that way every time so if there is an easier way someone please tell me lol

Try replacing your 'Home CSS Button' Layout with 'Home Image Navigation Button' Layout and then check the image names are correct. So it looks like this:

<a href="<actinic:variable name="HomePageURL" />" target="_self" onmouseover="SwapImage('nav_home','home1.gif')" onmouseout="RestoreImage()"><img src="home2.gif" alt="<actinic:variable name="HomeText" />" border="0" name="nav_home" /></a>

Then repeat for the other buttons.

Hey, thanks

if i click on the image and look in the layout code the title says:
"standard brochure page link image"

Depends on your base theme - doesn't matter - just try replacing the code with what I have posted. Backup your layout first or preferably make a new one based on it and then replace the code as given.

You could also add the 'Home Image Navigation Button' Layout into the code from the Insert Layout window - you will see it if you scroll to NavigationIcon and tick 'Use Fixed Layout'.

The 'Home Image Navigation Button' Layout is the layout that uses rollover.

Ok, i have done this, and it still shows all three brochure page links with the home link image.

Why is it not taking the image from the "button image" textbox on the general settings for the brochre page?

what have you named your buttons?

BLIMEY!!!

ive done it..

Right, i went to the design tree, and opened up my "Horizontal Brochure Page List"

I pretty much deleted everything inside it and started from scratch hand coding everything.

i now have this code...

<a href="<actinic:variable name="BrochurePageURL" />" target="_self" onmouseover="SwapImage('br_nav<actinic:variable name="BrochurePageID" />','<actinic:variable name="BrochureImageAlt" />')" onmouseout="RestoreImage()"><img src="<actinic:variable name="BrochureImage" />" alt="<actinic:variable name="BrochureName" />" border="0" name="br_nav<actinic:variable name="BrochurePageID" />" />
</a>

Thanks for all your help guys!!!!!

MUCH APPRECIATED!
