    How fluent are you with PHP?

    The reason I ask is that it might be easier for you to insert an image where you want it and then just switch out the image when you need to make a change…rather than creating an entirely new position at that spot.

    It’s doable either way…but if you just need to stick an image there…and not have to use Joomla!’s Banner module function…it will be a LOT easier.

    Thank you for answer.
    in that position must be able to run banner from an external adserver (openx adserver),
    then I have to create a new position to associate the form of banner openx

    know who can give to change the CSS?

    Hi!

    Okay…here are the steps you need to do what you want.

    First in template.css (line 789)
    Change the height variable which is allowing room for your new banner.


    #ja-header {
    background-color:#FFFFDF;
    height:132px;
    line-height:normal;
    position:relative;
    }

    Add this NEW ID to your template.css (anywhere, doesn’t matter)


    #ja-header-banner {
    margin:0;
    padding:42px 0 0;
    }

    Then
    The in index.php around line 127 ….find the following code and add in the line highlighted in RED. This is your banner. You’ll need to insert the URL for your external banner.


    <?php if ($tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_USER)) { ?>
    <div id="ja-usertools">
    <strong>Text size</strong><?php $tmpTools->genToolMenu($tmpTools->getParam(JA_TOOL_USER)); ?>
    </div>
    <?php } ?>
    </div>
    </div>
    <div id="ja-header-banner"><img src="INSERT BANNER IMAGE" width="728" height="90" align="right" /></div>
    </div>

    </div>
    <!-- END: HEADER -->

    You will have to readjust the size of your logo to allow the new banner position to fit, but this should do what you want.

    Have fun.
    John.

    This should be under a sticky with “nifty tips and tricks” together with some others!

    Hi there.

    I followed your instructions and have a banner inserted in the header as required.

    Now can you please indicate where to change the code so as to have a space between the banner and the header menu.
