Repeating an image ?

[wolfe]

is it possible to repeat an image thats not in the database

example if a user has 10 posts i want this image to repeat once and if they have 20 i want it to repeat twice etc

any ideas.

Well, you'd probably need a custom plugin to do what you want normally. If you use the image as a background, you can do it by changing the size of the container. For example:

<if condition="$postsbarwidth=$post['posts']/10">
<div style="background-image:url(images/myrepeatingimage.gif);background-repeat:repeat-x;height:15px;width:{$postsbarwidth}px;padding:0px;"><img src="$vboptions[cleargifurl]" alt="" height="15" width="$postsbarwidth" /></div>
</if>

This will show 1 px of width for every 10 posts for a images/myrepeatingimage.gif up to 15 px high. If you want to show full images, you can upload the attached plugin to allow use of intval, then change the conditional to something like:

<if condition="$postsbarwidth=intval($post['posts']/10)*15">

where 15 is the width of the image.

I'm sorry, I'm affraid that this is pretty complicated...

thx m8 but i was woundering if it was possible to repeat the same image again and again every xx posts
like pip1.gif = 0 posts then pip1.gif x 2 = 25 posts etc

thx inadvance

something like Ranking for Images in Posts... hum, strange... lol

whys it strange m8

nothing personal wolfe, it's just the "reason why it would be useful"... i'd like to have your reason here, so maybe we can have a more precise code to offer... you explain what you intend to do, but not the reason why...

programming is about reasons/targets, not means...

That's what I explained how to do.
