How to add title picture to the guestbook

sportgsd — GMT

I would like to make the guestbook look like my site.
I use DreamWeaver MX to edit htm,php files.
How do I/which files do I edit:

1) to add/insert a table to the top of the guestbook so I can put and image in the top row and my menu script in the bottom row?

2) to limit the width of the guest book to 740 pix

Thx

1 - Edit [b]templates/body.php[/b]
2 - Simply change the width in the Style section of the Admin.

I'd personally suggest using a dedicated text editor such as [url=http://www.pspad.com][u]PS Pad[/u][/url] for editing PHP files as they are specifically designed for the purpose. I'm not to sure if Dreamweaver would add it's own bits to files edited in it.

image not showing and guestbook page alignment

Hi,

Thanks for you help. I edited the body.php and inserted a table at the top of the body.php that has my title image and my menu.

I uploaded my image to to the img directory in the guestbook folder. BUT my image.jpg insn't showing up. Any ideas???

Also I changed the guestbook width, but how do I change the alignment? Right now the guestbook is central on the page and my title is on the left side of the page.

How do I move the guestbook to the left side of the page.

Thanks

Put align="center" to the table tag you added. As for the images I would need to see the guestbook. You sure you got the src path correct?

I don't want to align my table to the center, I want to align the guestbook to display on the left. How do I do that?

Here is src path for the image:

Use the full path for your image instead of relative. The path you have at present is telling it that the folder containing the image is outside the guestbook folder. Use http://www.yourdomain.com etc as the src path. As for the table look in body.php again. In the table tag change align="center" to align="left" or just remove this attribute totally.

Fixed the image, thanks.

But...

"In the table tag change align="center" to align="left" or just remove this attribute totally."

The table I inserted with my title image and menu IS aligned properly, it is the guestbook that is still "misaligned."

Here is a look at my site: http://www.allk-9.com/guestbook/

How do I get the guestbook (all pages) to align to the left. I can force the body.php to align to the left, by adding a row to my table, and then putting the body.php into the table. BUT all of the other guestbook pages will still display in the center...

Is there a general cart setting where I can change the alignment of the entire guestbook to the left instead of the center?

If not, how would you suggest making sure all pages will align to the left (i.e. which templates in addition to the body will I have to insert into a table that is aligned to the left)?

Thank you

I was talking about the align="center" attribute that is in the [b]GUESTBOOKS[/b] table tag not the table tag you inserted.

ahh haa (guestbook alignment)

Ahh haa!
My bad, I thought you were referring to my table....

Ok so before I go hacking up every template...
There are multiple tags in the body.php for each sub table, would you recommend that instead of changing each individual tag that I move the entire body.php into the table I created?

If so, what other templates will I have to do that do so that all guestbook user pages align to the left?

Or is there a universal.php that has an alignment tag controlling the display of all guestbook pages that I can edit???

Thanks

If you are going to put them within your table then you are best starting your table in header.php and closing it in footer.php. Nesting tables within tables within tables is not recommended practise though. As for the table tags to edit look in body.php, comment.php, form.php and preview.php.

thanks carbonize

I "think" I've got it worked out now.

Thanks for all of your help.
