Different background images for 1st / all other pages

Hello
I'm trying to set up my templates. Basically not a problem, except for the graphics-part:
Page 1 of my letters should have a specific background image, while all following pages need a different one.
Is this possible?
thanks much in advance!

How to add different background image for submenu items???

Hi all,
I'm pretty new to web design and CSS in particular. Here's my problem...
I've got a Spry horizontal menu bar (untouched as yet), and I want to have a different background image for my submenu items than that of my menu items. From searching the internet I think that I need to apply a class to the submenu item (please correct me if I am wrong).
How would I go about doing this and how would I assign the class to just the submenu items?
Also ideally I want to have my first and last menu items to have rounded corners on one side (therefore making a rounded edge menu bar), is it possible to have a different background image for individual menu items? If so, how?
Really appreciate any help!

Thanks for the link! I've managed to sort the background issue, and it seems to be working fine!
Just one little issue left to tackle...
I want my text to be centered in my top menu items BUT aligned left in my drop down menu items. I have managed this but the text hugs the left hand side. I've tried adding a little margin to the left but that doesn't seem to affect anything???
Here's my CSS... Any ideas which class I should be targeting or why adding the margin isn't working would save my tearing the rest of my hair out! thanks! (screenshot attached).

Spry Menu Bar - Different Background Image Wanted for menu items

Hi, I've looked everywhere for help with this and just haven't found any answers yet ...
I want my Dreamweaver CS5.5 menu to look like this design I've done in PhotoShop ...
It's a simple one level list with no sub-levels.
Everything is good, except I can only set one background image for all the menu items at this level.
I want the first, last, and all the middle, menu items to use different background images.
I have no idea where or how to insert the code to set a different background image for each individual menu item ...
I know I could use images set one on top another in a column with rollover image swop, but the spry menu opens the door for dynamic content so I'm keen to get it working.
Manchester city council has a great example of this style of menu design working at - http://www.manchester.gov.uk/
They've got funky indenting of the text as well.
~~~~~~
This is the code for my menu list ...
<div class="sidebar1">
    <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarVertical">
      <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">News</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Groups</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Events</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
         <li><a href="#">Help</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>
This is how I set the background image (but I can only define one image) ...
I set the image background to "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg" through ...
CSS Styles
SpryMenuBarVertical.css
ul.MenuBarVertical a
I then select the background category
and browse to the image file.
doing this changes my CSS code as follows ...
ul.MenuBarVertical li
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    position: relative;
    text-align: left;
    cursor: pointer;
    width: 170px;
    margin-top: 4px;
    margin-bottom: 4px;
    background: url(/Images/Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg);
ul.MenuBarVertical ul
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    z-index: 1020;
    cursor: default;
    width: 170px;
    left: -1000em;
    top: 0;
    margin-right: 0;
    margin-bottom: 0;
    margin-left: 95%;
    background: url(/Images/Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg);
ul.MenuBarVertical a
    display: block;
    cursor: pointer;
    padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
    color: #0000;
    text-decoration: none;
    font: normal 12px Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
    background: #EEE url(/Images/Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg);
~~~~~~
These are the three images I want to apply to the top middle and bottom menu items :
Top menu item background image - "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Top-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg"
Middle menu items background image - "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Mid-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg"
Bottom menu item background image - "Menu-Nav-Bar-Pic-Bot-v1-w170px-h32px.jpg"
~~~~~~
As I am unable to set the menu items individually, this is how the menu looks like on my website at the moment ...
~~~~~~
So near yet so far ! I'm hapy with the verdana font, the image size and spacing, but the background images I just can't set them right.
I'd really appreciate any help on this as I'm out of ideas.
Thank you.

The easiest way is to use pseudo elements.
To style the first and last menu items ifferently to the rest, merely add :first-child and :last-child respectivly as follows
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarVertical.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<style>
ul.MenuBarVertical li:first-child a {
    background-color: red;
    color: white;
ul.MenuBarVertical li:last-child a {
    background-color: green;
    color: yellow;
</style>
</head>
<body>
<ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarVertical">
<li><a href="#">Item 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Item 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Item 3</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Item 4</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Item 5</a></li>
</ul>
<script type="text/javascript">
var MenuBar1 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar1", {imgDown:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif", imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
</script>
</body>
</html>
In your case, in liue of the background colour, you would have an image.

Accordion using different background images on panels

Hi,
I'm creating an accordion in Dreamweaver cs3 which has seven
panels. I would like to use a different background image for each
panel. I have only managed to use a single image, that ends up on
all the panels. Any ideas on this?

It worked!!! a BIG hug to U..

.AccordionPanelTab2, etc.
Of course, you would also change the div references in your
pages.

How to setup jpeg file as background image for all site pages and resolution stay same?

I have uploaded my new site to http://wwwtjhtestdec2012.businesscatalyst.com
I have background image set the same on all site pages but image is incorrectly zoomed way in on some pages (like Home page for example).
The Donate Page shows the correct resolution which I want displayed on all site pages.
How do I set all other site pages to match background image resolution of the Donate Page?
I am not sure what I am doing wrong that is changing this, or if it's possibly a bug?
I want the background image to be full screen on all site pages please advise how to resolve.
I would appreciate the assistance!
Thank you kindly!
Tammy

I have re-uploaded my site to http://wwwtjhtestdec2012.businesscatalyst.com.
If I set the Master page to Tile vertically that is only way I can get full screen background image of vegetables (without distortion).
Then however another issue occurs....
On Home Page of site I set same property to Tile and the background is better (no visible line where tiles meet---above the navigation tool bar--that is what I want for all pages associated to Master.
So logically, I tried setting a 2nd associated site page to same master, to Tile but on Statement of Faith Page, notice the horizontal line where tiles meet, above my navigation bar on that site page?
Why does Muse not handle both site pages associated to the same master identically?
Any of the other options besides Tile or Tile vertically cause the background to not fill entire screen.
Ideas?

How to change background image for each individual page in a template?

I've been working for hours to try to figure out how to change the background image for each individual page in a template. I have tried making a div in the body and adding a CSS and setting a background picture. Unfortunately even after I made it editable all templated webpages changed. I tried looking at different forum results which didn't really help me out. http://forums.adobe.com/message/2670005#2670005#2670005. I've also tried embeding a CSS style on the webpage instead of the external CSS which again didn't work. I'm not sure where to go from here. Is there a good video that explains this clearly. Please help. Thanks.

Adjust inline styles to suit your needs.

Background Image for a Page

Hi All,
How to have a background image for a Portalpage? As Portlets are on the top of page,setting image in the Portal Style does not help.
What's the wworkaround?
Thanx

I know,I can set the background image in the Page Template but in that case Portlets do not take that image as a background.Then It looks very awkward.
How to solve this? Anybody at Oracle.
Thanx

What's the best way to save an 8.5 x 11 image for use as a page background in a PDF?

What's the best way to save an 8.5 x 11 image for use as a page background in a PDF? My goal is to have a relatively small final .pdf file size that includes numerous pages with full 8.5 x 11 images as backgrounds in the document. If I save at 8.5 x 11 and 72dpi (example), the image is not 8.5 x 11, and the quality is not good enough. I need help with size, dpi, and file format to save as before I place it in InDesign and then save as a .pdf.
Thanks,
Jim

Do exactly what I said then. Create the InDesign document of the required dimension, and chose whether it will be high quality print, or Interactive PDF. It really doesn't mater what format you bring the image into that document. It can be JPG, PNG, but I usually use native Photoshop PSD. The image does have to be of high enough resolution, but it can be many times bigger than iis required for the final export. (InDesign does not import the image, but rather references it on your hard drive.)
When you have placed your text and finished your page, then export it to PDF, but go through the tabs chosing suitable settings. If the image needs to be downsized, InDesign will do that at this stage while building the PDF.
If you can tell us how this presentation will be made (Projector, overhead projector, printed page etc. or just emailed to the end users) we can help you more with the final output settings.

How to use background image for a page that work in Netscape..???

Hi there
Is there anyway around to use background image for a portal page that works well with netscape.
As I have used that but in coming in Netscape.
thanks
Rakesh

1) You post questions in the wrong forum. (As you title says this is a Swing question).
2) Not once in your last 10 postings have you ever bothered to reply to a posting to thank people for the help you have received.
I seriously doubt you well ever get answers in the future.

How do I fit a background image to fill the entire page?

Hi,
could anyone please tell me how I use e.g. a jpeg image as a background image that fits the entire page without getting horizontal or vertical scroll bars?
Thanks

Hi Pziecina and Nancy O.,
thank you so much for your mails. However, I'm still trying to figure this out.
@ Pziecina...I studied the source code of your webpage and tried to insert parts of it into my own page in different variations. The solution to my problem must have something to do with CSS and img src height and width. All I get is a white page. I found out that an image size set in Photoshop apparently doesn't have any effect on whether the image fills the browser 100% or not.
@ Nancy O. What I'm trying to do is to use one single image as background for a single page on the website, I'd like to construct. An image that opens up to the entire width of the screen...not just the browser. I imagine this with layers of transparent/solid color for text fields. I studied the website page, you suggested and a repeat action is not what I aim for. And I realize that maybe I'm thinking too much in Photoshop terms...thinking I can do similar actions in Dreamweaver. I'm well aware of the whole thing being 'too much' in terms of design and usability but if you check out www.frauhaus.dk I think that works beautifully, although it doesn't open up to the entire screen. I'd like to see if that design concept will work for my own website or if it's going to be too confusing.
And to both of you I really appreciate your time and input, thanks. Even though I'm still getting grey hairs as a beginner I keep thinking that there's got to be a solution to this.
Best regards from MissRaspberryDream

Setting background image for repeating frame in .pdf report

Is it possible to set a background image for a repeating frame, and more specifically for a repeating frame rendered in .pdf?
I do not see any standard property in the navigator for images of any sort and the documentation touches only on setting background images for graphs, which is not the intent in my case. I -did- add an HTML table property background="myimage.jpg" but the report is ultimately generated in .pdf format and I was not surprised to see that the image was not rendered.
Does anyone know if setting a background image as described is even possible, and if so, how? A second but less optimum solution would be setting the image as the background for all report pages, again in .pdf.
Many thanks.

Hi Raj,
Yes you can have an image in the background. Thats possible if you are using XML forms as an iview or ivew dev in WebDynpro...

Background images for a portlet

Hi,
Is it possble to have a background image for a portlet only, In particular I need to include the login portlet in a region but have the background of the portlet based on an image file.
Thanks in advance,
Brandon

Hello Benny,
The portal layout is done in portalcontent.jsp and portlet.jsp. The
homepage for exampleportal is portal.jsp, which does a dynamic include of
the portalcontent.jsp page. The portalcontent.jsp page loops through an
array of Portlets and includes them with an HTML table that uses a dynamic
include for each portlet by doing a <jsp:include> with portlet.jsp. There
is another HTML table in portlet.jsp.
All of this is just HTML, so it should not be difficult to customize
it. You could use WLPS to create a "backgroundImage" property for each
user or group and then use the <um:getproperty> tag to get the value when
displaying the portal. Maybe you could set "backgroundImage" to
images/wallpaper.gif for your user's group and then you could use the
<um:getproperty> tag to get this value in your JSP page. Then you could do
something like this in your HTML table in a JSP page that extends JspBase
(or PortalJspBase):
<%
String backgroundURL = fixupRelativeURL(backgroundImageValue);
%>
<table background="<%= backgroundURL %>" ...

How can I use a JPEG file as a background image for my vi in 8.5

Im working on a vi that I plan on using as part of an alarm system. I would like to use a JPEG file of my house as a background image for the vi, or possibly to just be displayed in a window on the control panel. I have seen people use their own images before, but never looked at what this involved.
Im trying to use the "read JPEG file" vi and the "draw flattened pixmap" vi to accomplish this. The vi does run, but nothing shows on the front panel. If I try to create an indicator from the "new picture" output of the "draw flattened pixmap" vi, I get an empty white window on the front panel.
Any advice?
Thanks
Solved!

the earlier vi (using the JPEG) works fine. just increase the size of the picture control
I figured this was the problem. And to the OP, I'm glad a bitmap worked, but no I didn't mean use any sort of LabVIEW programming at all. I meant open your image in Microsoft Paint, Press ctrl+A to select the whole thing. Then copy the image to the clipboard. Now select your front panel and press ctrl + v to paste it. No programming needed and the image is there. However, if you want to programmatically change it, you will need a picture control.
