Jason,
I read this post:
I was thinking that was what he was asking for <body
background='xxx.jpg'>. This could also be done with floating tables, but
I didnt want to get all 'in-depth' with the HTML route as I am already
contemplating other technologies.
regarding the floorplan.pl code. I have made a jpg of the floorplan of my
apartment that is fairly detailed. I am wanting to make this image the
background of the page that floorplan.pl generates. That way, instead of
added group locations to define rooms, I can just add item locations
(since the icons are alpha-channel'd, I am assuming that the light
locations would appear in the rooms on the background image correctly, as
long as I get their coordinates correct.
I am just starting to learn Perl and I cannot figure out where to put the
background in. Thanks for the help.
Hopefully this will hold me over until those "other technologies" are
available :)
-Daniel

Scott / Dan, If I were to attempt this, I would make the following changes in the floorplan.pl file: - Search / replace "border='1'" to "border='0'" - Add a <body background=> tag at the beginning of the code file (after the meta tag is set). I made the icons alpha as you mentioned, so it should just appear fine. The only tweaking other than that would be to shift the background image to match the table generation. -J On Tue, 30 Dec 2003, Daniel Nadeau wrote: > Jason, > I read this post: > > I was thinking that was what he was asking for <body > background='xxx.jpg'>.

One more note: The reason I didnt shove this in the code from day one: The Tables will shift depending on browser window size and browser type. Didnt think it would be all that useful for general use. -J On Tue, 30 Dec 2003, Jason Sharpee wrote: > > Scott / Dan, > > If I were to attempt this, I would make the following changes > in the floorplan.pl file: > > - Search / replace "border='1'" to "border='0'" > - Add a <body background=> tag at the beginning of the code file (after the meta tag is > set). > > I made the icons alpha as you mentioned, so it should > just appear fine.

Jason,
I wasn't able to find any border=1 or "border='1'" . It seems all of them were already
set to border=0 Hope I am not missing something. Also, I added the
following line.
$html .= "<body background='floorplan.jpg'>"
after these lines
my $html = "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='10;URL='>";
#$html .= "<title>Floorplan</title>";
However, I think my code is messed up. I apologize for any inconvenience,
as I know this is probably stupid newbie errors.

While playing, I stuck my "background=/pathto/floorplan.jpg" in the table definition. So, the background image was part of the table, not the "whole" document. From what I can tell, background images in tables are 'supported' but not part of the true html 'standard'??????? I can't get to my file at this moment to include the actual html code. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel Nadeau" <cj...@ma...> To: <mis...@li...> Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2003 12:06 AM Subject: [misterhouse-users] Jason - floorplan question > Jason, > I read this post: > > I was thinking that was what he was asking for <body > background='xxx.jpg'>.

I am probably showing my ignorance of html here but when I tried
adding a background image
previously it didn't work at all.
I deduced that the background="xxxx" bit had to be inside the <body>
tag, but in floorplan.pl this
tag is genearated by the call to &html_page('FloorPlan', $html); so
just adding it aftr the
meta tag didn't work. I only just tried writing my own html
generating code and
realised how easy adding the whole <body background etc> would be.
This "alpha channel" is completely new to me, so some research needed.
By coincidence over the last couple of days I wrote half a program to
use CSS and Map techniques.
So far I have clickable light bulbs overlaid over the (modified)
distribution floorplan.gif over
over individual room sized coloured 'carpets' over two layers of
garden gifs. It's rather slow
but the effect is great.
Anyone else tried CSS?

Baz,
could you share your floorplan work to community ?
Regards,
Robert.

Here is a link to an explanation, demo, and the code. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/baz.butcher/mh/atest/Explanation.html Sorry it's not a zip but it has taken me hours to get all the bits to work in this context and it's easier to update as individual files.
