    Different backgrounds on different pages

    Hi

    Anyone know how to use different background images on different pages? I look in the advanced user guide (December '02 version obtained from Actinic by mail - the one on the downloads page is August '02) and there is some stuff in there about different background colours, but not images.

    I looked in Act_Primary.html and found

    <BODY NETQUOTEVAR:BGIMAGE...

    .
    .
    .
    </BODY>

    and within the BODY part I replaced this with



    BACKGROUND="../images/newbackgroundimagefilename.jpg"

    (all the images are in /images)

    but this made no difference.

    Any ideas?

    hi nick.

    you would have to create different primary templates.

    take a look at page 18 in the advanced user guide - explais it perfectly

      It is the same principle as with images -

      You replace
      background-image:url(NETQUOTEVAR:BGIMAGECSS);

      with something like
      background-image:url(background2.gif);

      Also, if you cannot get it to appear, remove 'NETQUOTEVAR:BGIMAGE' from the <BODY> tag of the overall layout template that is referencing your new style-sheet.

      Also, you may need to manually copy your background image into the 'PreviewHTML' folder in order to see it with a preview.
