Is there a solution for that ?

what images are you reffering too? {IMAGE:} image or rolover image content part?

some image borders can be applied by altering the conf.template_defualt.inc.php

Im refering to the images content part.
So I want to show a whole list of product pics.

But I would like to add some border or graphical space holder between them.
Maybe even some kinda little background graphic which stays the same for every picture. Also I want the text on the right for example.
I know it is possible with the image+text content part.
But that would mean a lot of work. Also the pics wouldn't be arranged automaticly.
I mean something like this: http://www.cyberport.de

Thanks again.

although i cant see a border around these samples you are able to re create this type of product display using article templates.

hello

template article listing / display full article (optional):
Here you can choose an template for article and summary. Choose for an test the sample.tmpl in the dropdown menues. You will find the template for article listing in /phpwcms_template/inc_cntpart/articlesummary/list and for the full article /phpwcms_template/inc_cntpart/articlesummary/article.

Hi Pappnase,

Does this really affect all images ?

Any idea ?
Thanks alot.

firstly (in your case) you design a special template (html snipet) for the 'article list' (&/or 'article summary') in your favourite html editor. this new template will probalby be a table/div that aranges the various elements such as product image, title, subtitle etc.
thee are a number of replacement tags designed to help you here and can be found in /phpwcms_template/inc_cntpart/articlesummary/listr &/or article/sample.tmpl

your first stop should be to look at the sampl.tmpl code AND to see it in action by applying the sample.tmpl to existing articles.

these are a very powerfull part of phpwcms and can be used to great effect.

Hi again.

I understand that you could arrange different articles (pics) in a special article template.
But it is possible to arrange the pics in the images content type ?
Hard to explain. Ill try it.

I dont want write 20 image articles and arrange them with a template.
But I want to use the images content and load up 20 pics at once.
So there maybe just one article which contains 20 pics.
As far as i understand this. This would not be possible with the article template ?

ehhh. complicated.
