Smarty Question

[Alex341]

I'm in the last stages of integrating WHMCS However Iam having an issue with PHP include. Heres the existing code: (And yes the div is closed elsewhere )

 

<div id="header-image" style="background: url('<?php include('./banner.php'); ?>');">

 

Ive tried many things to get this sorted, various combinations ect but nothing seems to work.

 

Any help appreciated.

In Smarty, you use {php} and {/php}, not <?php...?>.

Curious why you're trying to use a php file as a background, though. What's up with that?

Ive tried that, no joy Im afraid. Ive also tried {php_include } and {literal} {/literal}

 

Its a rotating banner on a PHP array, hence the background.

Tried calling it directly?

style="background: url('./banner.php')

Your path is more than likely incorrect if its not working. Turn on display errors on that page by adding ?display_errors=on to the url of the page your on

 

It should then show you the php and/or smarty errors.

If the header information is correct, calling it directly as bear said should work. Unless the banner.php output already puts the <img> tags in. Going to a random image script I have directly shows me the image source as its a php file, and my browser has no idea it's an image.
