[support] Different header image for each section

Mon Oct 22 23:11:45 UTC 2007

In situations where the image is static, CSS works well.

For example, in your page.tpl.php file:
  <?php $sectionname = some function that returns section name?>
  <body class="<?php print $sectionname ?>">
    <div id="header>Header stuff</div>

Then in your CSS file:
 .section1 #header {background-image: url(image1.jpg); }
 .section2 #header {background-image: url(image2.jpg); }

The best way to organize the tag classes/ids depends on your site.
