Hi.

Have You just used <td  style="background:url(<%= SkinPath & PortalSettings.ActiveTab.TabName %>BG.gif)" > and then it worked? Strange. it seems like the dir is right (as far asI can see)

Just to clearify. If I specify something i my skin it overrules CSS? I have background in CSS.

Have 2x checked filename.

I was wondering If the code changes the wrong picture? I mean behind the visible stuff.  It is TopRow1 I want to change picture in (the default picture on this is set in CSS also). does this seems right?

<

table class="SiteWidth" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">

 

<tr>

 

<td class="TopRow1" valign="top">

 

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

 

<tr>

 

<td class="CurrentDate" valign="top" >

 

<dnn:CURRENTDATE CssClass="Header" runat="server" id="dnnCURRENTDATE" />

 

 

<td style=background:url('<%= SkinPath & Portalsettings.ActiveTab.TabName %>BG.jpg)'" ></td>

 

<td class="HeaderRight">

 

<dnn:Login CssClass="Header" runat="server" id="dnnLOGIN" OnLoad="dnnLOGIN_Load" />&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;&nbsp;

 

 

<dnn:USER CssClass="Header" runat="server" id="dnnUSER" /></td>

 

</tr>

 

<tr>

 

 

<td class="Logo" colspan="2"><dnn:logo runat="server" id="dnnLOGO" /></td></tr>

 

</table>

 Btw offcourse I have 1 danish character :-( But I'll fix this later... didn't think of this

Bo :-)

Ah, sorry, I put the closing single quote accidently at the wrong place: it must be before the closing bracket, not after it! Also, you forgot the opening double quote after the style attribute, The correct line is (note again the hilighting green background):

<td style="background:url('<%= SkinPath & Portalsettings.ActiveTab.TabName %>BG.jpg')" ></td>

If this doesn't work either, then you can download my trial skin from www.xws.de/dnn/dnn-blue-activetab.zip. It was derived from the default DNN-Blue skin and changes the  background image for the menu row and the row with the Copyright and Terms of Use links when the home page (name = "Home") is called. It uses two different methods to change the image - see the comments in lines 30 and 65 of file 'ActiveTab.ascx'.

Hope that helps!

Hi.

It works like a charm (well almost :-) )... It must have been  " " " and the " ' "  messing it op. But it is close. 

Just used:  <td style="background:url('<%= SkinPath & Portalsettings.ActiveTab.TabName %>BG.jpg')" ></td>

It is similar to the one in line 30, can't figure out how line65 work so nice the other works..

Thanks for You help

Bo :-)

BTW: if you have problems with tab names that contain special characters (as I had), you can use the tab ID instead of the tab name:
<td style="background:url('<%= SkinPath & Portalsettings.ActiveTab.TabID %>BG.jpg')" ></td>
Advantage: the skin continues to work if the page is renamed.
