Replace Select A Section

[otiz]

I was told to remove a script to replace select a section with a banner, however i cannot find the exact wording i was told to replace in Act_Primary.html with <img scr="filename.jpeg">
Thanks
Paul

Could you tell me what to replace from the section below?


SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="actiniccore.js" TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="actinicextras.js" TYPE="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>
<!--@act NETQUOTEVAR:TOPLEVELSECTIONS_RAW -->

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
/***********************************************************************
*
* ACT_DropListBox - returns a string containing the HTML for the SELECT listbox
*
************************************************************************/

function ACT_DropListBox(ar)
{
var strIDs = '<SELECT SIZE="1" NAME="ACT_droplstbox" onChange="if(options[selectedIndex].value) window.location.href=(options[selectedIndex].value)">'
var sel = " SELECTED"
strIDs += '<OPTION ' + sel + ' VALUE="">Select a Section</OPTION>'
for (var i=1;i<=ar.length;i++)
{
if (ar[i].sURL !=null)
{
strIDs += '<OPTION VALUE="' + ar[i].sURL + '&ACTINIC_REFERRER=' + escape(location.href) + '&NOCLEARFRAMES=1">' + ar[i].sName + '</OPTION>'
}
}
strIDs+='</SELECT>'
return strIDs
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

<!-- Placeholder of cookie checking javascript code. Do not remove it! -->
<Actinic:COOKIECHECK/>

<!--
The NETQUOTEVARs below can be uncommented for getting raw section lists:
1. Top level section list

Sorry i dont know if i made myself clear?

I want to do away with the "Select a Section" on the header bar at the top of each page and replace it with a banner.

In the above post what text do i need to remove to get rid of this and where do i place the new script?

Hope this is a better explanation?

I'm assuming you still want the drop-down select box and only want to remove the text "Select a Section" (it's staring you in the face) and replace this with an image.

Then keep all of the above but replace the words "Select a Section" with your image code.

I.e. the line

strIDs += '<OPTION ' + sel + ' VALUE="">Select a Section</OPTION>'


becomes something like

strIDs += '<OPTION ' + sel + ' VALUE=""><img src="filename.jpeg"></OPTION>'


I'd also recommend you include the image size in taht tag.

e.g.

<img src="filename.jpeg" width="100" height="50">

as this will help the browser display the page without having to resize it once the inage loads.

From your example above delete everything from

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">


to

</SCRIPT>

inclusive. Leave the 1st 3 lines above that lot in place, and everything below it. If you want your banner in the same place then just put it in where you deleted.

Unhelpfully, you haven't posted what you did and exactly what error message you get.

So I have to guess:-

If you put the image into your Site1 folder and refer to it as <img src="myimage.jpg"> then Actinic should refer to it and upload it just fine.

If the image isn't on your site then you need to put the full URL <img src="http://www.othersite.com/myimage.jpg">

Hi Norman

Sorry for being unhelpful,
The image now shows , however i was hoping it would be in the same place as the select a section bar was?

Thanks
