This was posted sometime ago, by Richard Kinser I think for the Snitz version 3.1 Sr4 - I post this in w/o mod-forum becaurse I would like to hear if anybody (into ASP) know that the changes does effect other functions of the forum
----------------------------------------
Start of Richard Kinser posting
In inc_top.asp you could replace this:
<td valign="top" width="50%"><a href="default.asp"><img alt="<% =strForumTitle %>" border="0" src="<%=strTitleImage%>"></a></td>
with this:
<td valign="top" width="50%"><a href="default.asp"><% if InstrRev(Request.ServerVariables("Path_Info"), "forum.asp") > 0 or InstrRev(Request.ServerVariables("Path_Info"), "topic.asp") > 0 then %><img border="0" src='forum_<% =Request.QueryString("FORUM_ID") %>.gif'><% else %><img alt="<% =strForumTitle %>" border="0" src="<%=strTitleImage%>"><% end if %></a></td>
Then you would just name the images for each Forum like:
forum_1.gif
forum_2.gif
and so on...
You would have to have an Image for each forum though, or it will show up as a broken image.
End of Richard Kinser posting
-------------------------------------
This works with 3.3.03 also, but you have to add a little piece of code to the URL-string at forum.asp
At line 365 in forum.asp find this:
<font face="<% =strDefaultFontFace %>" size="<% =strDefaultFontSize %>"><a href="topic.asp?<%= ArchiveLink %>TOPIC_ID=<% =Topic_ID %>"><% =ChkString(left(rs("T_SUBJECT"), 50),"display") %></a> </font>
and replace it with this:
<font face="<% =strDefaultFontFace %>" size="<% =strDefaultFontSize %>"><a href="topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=<% =rs("TOPIC_ID") %>&FORUM_ID=<% =Request.QueryString("FORUM_ID") %>"><% =ChkString(left(rs("T_SUBJECT"), 50),"display") %></a> </font>
Before you change anything you NEED to backup your files - becaurse I have not testet all functions with this - but as far as I can see no harm is done to anything else by this change - but as asked at the top - does anybody know if this harm other functions at the board ?

I have it working with Snitz 3.03 using the following code in inc_top.asp
<% strScriptName = request.servervariables("script_name")
if instr(strScriptName,"forum")> 0 or instr(strScriptName, "topic")> 0 then %><img border="0" src='../images/forum_<% =Request.QueryString("FORUM_ID") %>.jpg'><%
else %><img alt="<% =strForumTitle %>" border="0" src="<%=strTitleImage%>"><% end if %></a></td>
(change the code in red to suit your needs)
Then I added Morten's code to forum.asp
Then you need to name each image forum_1.jpg, forum_2.jpg etc.
And finally see post below for the last bit of code.

Morten,
Your code works, however, the way you have it right now, it won't work for topics with more then one page. For that you need to find the following code close to the bottom of forum.asp
ref = ref & widenum(counter) & "<a href='topic.asp?"
ref = ref & "TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID
ref = ref & "&whichpage=" & counter
ref = ref & "&ARCHIVE=" & ArchiveView
and add this right below it
ref = ref & "&FORUM_ID=" & FORUM_ID
EDIT:
Looks like even that's not enough... I forgot about the paging code in topic.asp. Without changing that too you won't get the banners if you you use the links on the bottom to jump to different pages in a topic with several pages. This should fix that.
Find in topic.asp (it's in sub Paging)
ref = ref & ArchiveLink
ref = ref & "whichpage=" & counter
ref = ref & "&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & "'"
and replace with this
ref = ref & ArchiveLink
ref = ref & "whichpage=" & counter
ref = ref & "&TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID
ref = ref & "&FORUM_ID=" & FORUM_ID & "'"
However this still leaves the drop down paging option or sub DropDownPaging().
Does anyone know how to make the drop down menu add a Forum ID as well?
Please Help! I'm very close to having different banners for each forum that work for all circumstances.

Ok, I figured it out. topic.asp needs the following additional changes.
Find these lines
Response.Write("</select><b> of " & maxpages & "</b>")
Response.Write "<input type='hidden' name='TOPIC_ID' value='" & Request("TOPIC_ID") & "'>"
And add directly below
Response.Write "<input type='hidden' name='FORUM_ID' value='" & Request("FORUM_ID") & "'>"
Find this line
prevTopic = "<a href=topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & rsPrevTopic("TOPIC_ID") & _
change the line directly below to this
"&ARCHIVE=" & ArchiveView & "&FORUM_ID=" & FORUM_ID &_
Find this line
NextTopic = "<a href=topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & rsNextTopic("TOPIC_ID") & _
change the line directly below to this
"&ARCHIVE=" & ArchiveView & "&FORUM_ID=" & FORUM_ID &_
There that should do it. Now you can you can use the dropdown pagination, the link pagination, use the next topic and previous topic buttons, and your banners won't disappear. Maybe if I have the time I'll put it all together with clear instructions.
