BG img doesn't auto-repeat in Joomla template CSS! (SOLVED)

Post by -ReMeDy- » Thu Mar 15, 2012 7:07 am

My website's HTML and CSS works fine outside of Joomla:
http://www.designjetpartsfast.com

But when I translated it into a template format for Joomla, it looks like this:
http://www.davidjscott.com/misc/designj ... otWork.jpg

I know it found the CSS file correctly, otherwise the layout would be extremely messed up. I can also see the image file of my background was found, but it only displayed the image once! I need it repeated, as specified in my CSS file.

Here's the template php code:

Code: Select all

<?php
defined( '_VALID_MOS' ) or die( 'Restricted access' );
// needed to seperate the ISO number from the language file constant _ISO
$iso = explode( '=', _ISO );
// xml prolog
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="'. $iso[1] .'"?' .'>';
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<?php mosShowHead(); ?>
<?php
if ( $my->id ) {
	initEditor();
}
$collspan_offset = ( mosCountModules( 'right' ) + mosCountModules( 'user2' ) ) ? 2 : 1;
//script to determine which div setup for layout to use based on module configuration
$user1 = 0;
$user2 = 0;
$colspan = 0;
$right = 0;
// banner combos

//user1 combos
if ( mosCountModules( 'user1' ) + mosCountModules( 'user2' ) == 2) {
	$user1 = 2;
	$user2 = 2;
	$colspan = 3;
} elseif ( mosCountModules( 'user1' ) == 1 ) {
	$user1 = 1;
	$colspan = 1;
} elseif ( mosCountModules( 'user2' ) == 1 ) {
	$user2 = 1;
	$colspan = 1;
}

//right based combos
if ( mosCountModules( 'right' ) and ( empty( $_REQUEST['task'] ) || $_REQUEST['task'] != 'edit' ) ) {
	$right = 1;
}
?>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; <?php echo _ISO; ?>" />
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
   <!--
    function MM_reloadPage(init) {  //reloads the window if Nav4 resized
      if (init==true) with (navigator) {if ((appName=="Netscape")&&(parseInt(appVersion)==4)) {
        document.MM_pgW=innerWidth; document.MM_pgH=innerHeight; onresize=MM_reloadPage; }}
      else if (innerWidth!=document.MM_pgW || innerHeight!=document.MM_pgH) location.reload();
    }
    MM_reloadPage(true);

Anyone have any idea what got lost in translation from HTML to php template that would cause my CSS file to not auto-repeat a background image?

Re: background img doesn't auto-repeat in Joomla template CS

Looked at the current web site from the provided URL, but would have prefered a URL as well for the second (e.g., from a test URL) as the image is fine, but does not allow much in the way of technical help due to the nature of the request.

Without a test URL, here are some things from the Joomla! doc's that may or may not be of interest:

Finding module positions on any given page (am not sure if these work with 1.0 as only 1.6 & 1.7 are given directly):
http://docs.joomla.org/Finding_module_p ... given_page

Creating a basic templateDetails.xml file:
http://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_basic ... s.xml_file

Template FAQs:
http://docs.joomla.org/Template_FAQs

Which template is used in the image file please, is it a default Joomla! template from initial installation?

Hope this helps!

It's my own custom template. I'm attempting to replicate some of the code from the "PSU_Store" template (I'm not sure if that's default or not -- it's my client's Joomla) in hopes it will behave better.

Here's the PSU_Store template I'm using as a reference:
http://designjetpartsfast.com/component ... mid,3/.htm

And here's the code for the page belonging to the image file:

Code: Select all

Sorry I can't link the page directly, since it's a work-in-progress and I'm borrowing my client's domain space. He wouldn't want something up that's broken.

I'll try fiddling around with things in the meantime.

Understandable, then it is not a Joomla! template, it is a non-Joomla! template.

Perhaps utilizing a basic default Joomla! template within an editor capable of line numbers, along with a locking side by side comparison would greatly assist in this endeavor? From a random search: http://www.freediff.com/

Hope this helps!

Awesome, I figured it out! Apparently Joomla has a hard time understanding backgrounds read from a CSS file, so instead, I used <table border=0 background="images/bodyBG2.gif">

So now with all the content added and the working BG, it looks like this:

Code: Select all

<?php
defined( '_VALID_MOS' ) or die( 'Restricted access' );
// needed to seperate the ISO number from the language file constant _ISO
$iso = explode( '=', _ISO );
// xml prolog
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="'. $iso[1] .'"?' .'>';
?>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<?php mosShowHead(); ?>
<?php
if ( $my->id ) {
	initEditor();
}
$collspan_offset = ( mosCountModules( 'right' ) + mosCountModules( 'user2' ) ) ? 2 : 1;
//script to determine which div setup for layout to use based on module configuration
$user1 = 0;
$user2 = 0;
$colspan = 0;
$right = 0;
// banner combos

//user1 combos
if ( mosCountModules( 'user1' ) + mosCountModules( 'user2' ) == 2) {
	$user1 = 2;
	$user2 = 2;
	$colspan = 3;
} elseif ( mosCountModules( 'user1' ) == 1 ) {
	$user1 = 1;
	$colspan = 1;
} elseif ( mosCountModules( 'user2' ) == 1 ) {
	$user2 = 1;
	$colspan = 1;
}

//right based combos
if ( mosCountModules( 'right' ) and ( empty( $_REQUEST['task'] ) || $_REQUEST['task'] != 'edit' ) ) {

Joomla was then able to interpret the BG, and using CSS, it understood it needed to repeat the BG. Feels like a pain in the butt, but oh well, at least it works now.

Glad it worked!

PS: Does it work in all web browsers though to include text only?

Not sure what you mean about text only, but I tried it in IE 6 and multiple Firefox versions, and it came out great.

Also, the site itself is up with the new template, if you want to test it.
