Hi Peter.

Thanks.  I must admit i'm a total beginner on DNN and ASP.

I don't understand what the code does?

and what do You mean by seperate Skinpath and portal settingstabname directive?

I just tried your code example from your first post, and it worked perfectly. There must be something wrong with your image - perhaps a wrong file name, or it's in the wrong directory? What happens if you leave out the "PortalSettings.ActiveTab.TabName" part and hard code the image name instead?

[EDIT:]
However, if your tab name includes blanks, you must enclose the url property of your background definition with single quotes. in your case:
style="background:url('<%= SkinPath & PortalSettings.ActiveTab.TabName %>BG.gif)'"  (I highlighted the quotes with a green background - hope you can see it!).

Also, there might be problems if your tab name contains special (non-ASCII) characters.
