Ok here is what I am trying to accomplish
I have my publish listing template with a picture in the top for my dealers logos to appear and it workes great.
Recently I have been letting private parties post free listings on my site using the sign up script but they dont have a logo so all there is there on there listing is the box with the X on the top
http://www.wasatchcars.com/listman/listings/l0120.html
How can I have a private partie ad logo appear like the no photo pic appears when no photos are added to a listing ??
I have attached the template I am using
Thanks in advance
Bob

Hi Bob,
Thanks for posting.
There really isn't an elegant way to set something like this up as the image that you have there is more or less hard coded in the template.
I think that the easiest thing to to would be to create a blank image for that user, and upload it to their profile. That way there is at least something there. It's not pretty, but it's the only practical way that I can think of getting that to work

Would this be possible?
For the private parties that sign up using the signup script will all be automatically assigned a predefined jpg for their homepages/images/X_1.jpg

Hi wasatch.
Thanks for posting!
I actually just came across a neat little trick that might help you out here. In an image tag you can use an onError attribute like this:
<img src=/ross.gif onError=src="/path/to/default/image.gif">
Basically what this does is load a default image if the one your were trying to load doesn’t exist. Do you see how that would work? Give it a shot and let me know how you make out  .

I think that will work but I cant seem to get it inserted right it eather inserts a secong picture or it includes some html text when displayed
here is the code I am trying to insert
<img src=/private.jpg onError=src="/wasatchcars/html/private.jpg">
here is the code for my dealer logo from the template I attached above.
<font face="ms sans serif" size=1><img src="$homepage_url$/images/$user_num$_1.jpg" border=4 cellpadding=0 width=207 height=120 alt="Photo" style="border-style: solid; border-color: #C0C0C0"> </font>

Hi wasatch,
Thanks for the post!
From what you've mentioned it sounds like you're hoping to display "$user_num$_1.jpg" if it exists and if there is an error you'd like to display "private.gif". If I've misunderstood at all, just let me know.
If this is the case then your <img> tag would actually look like this:
<img src="$homepage_url$/images/$user_num$_1.jpg" onError=src="/private.jpg" border=4 cellpadding=0 width=207 height=120 alt="Photo" style="border-style: solid; border-color: #C0C0C0">
You'll notice I just added the "onError" attribute right into your existing tag. This means if there is any error loading the user image Listings Manager will grab the "private.jpg" file from your webroot.
Give this a try and let me know how it works out for you. If you have any other questions about this, just let me know!
