I’m sure, that if you posted a new thread in the How do I? section you will get some helpful suggestions.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display
Hi,
A newbie question. I discovered this plugin while searching for a way to link the image id to the CSS file. I have tried different versions of this coding:
#header {
background: #eee url(<txp:upm_img_full_url image_id=“19” /> ) no-repeat left top;
}
Could someone please show me the light?
Thanks in advance,
Ian

If you are using the plugin the the css tab I don’t think that it would work did you try something like:
#header { background: #eee url(/images/19.jpg ) no-repeat left top;
}

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display
Hi Colak,
Yes that was my first attempt. If that is the correct way to do it, I might have another problem.
I had found this thread and plugin from here which looked similar to what I was trying to accomplish.
Thanks again,
Ian

Textpattern tags are not processed for the style sheets, so this won’t work without a few additional pull-ups. You’d better stick with the static image URL, i.e. /images/...jpg

Wasn’t this why ako_css was written? Unfortunately, I never got it running, but this might be a “personal flaw” ;)

I’m not sure what you are trying to accomplish but your code should work if instead of writing the particular css in the styles tab you do it in the pages one.
you can include something like
<style type="text/css">
#header { background: #eee url(<txp:upm_img_full_url image_id="19" /> ) no-repeat left top;
}
</style>
Having said that, unless you want the image to change (in whatever way), I cannot see why not use the /images/19.jpg. Maybe if you can explain to us what it is you are trying to achieve we will be able to make proper suggestions.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] upm_image: More powerful image display
Colak,
Thank you for your patience. I am building my first site. I had seen an example of a website (built without a database) that used a background image in the header. On this site they linked to the image through the CSS file. I was trying to accomplish the same task using Textpattern and attempted to see how the style sheet would link to the images folder. I tried to use “url(/images/19.jpg )“without success.
When I searched for help in the forums I ran across “upm_image” and thought maybe this would be the missing link. That is where I am at. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks again,
Ian
