RE: Theme API

Good question, use this:

<img src="<layout:imgpath />logon.gif" border="0" />

Replace logon.gif, with whatever your image name is.

Subject: Re: [jl-volunteers] Theme API


How are images in a theme referenced.  If we're in a particular page in
a module and we do images/demo.gif will it go to the themes images
directory?  Perhaps a servlet that maps to /images/* could load it from
the proper location based on the theme.  We did something similar to
this for Usermagnet to load images from each customer.
