    hi,

    I am trying to use the conditional tags. Basically I want to say that if it is the page About choose this image with a $bannerimg. So, where do I insert that $bannerimg in my code?

    <?php if ( is_page(‘about’)) {
    $bannerimg = about.jpg’;
    } else {
    $bannerimg = ‘home.jpg’;}
    ?>

    ???????? <img src=”$bannerimg” align=”right” /> ???????

    use a php echo function to output the $bannerimg:

    where is the image folder?

    the full code depennds on the image location;
    to start, try:

    <?php if ( is_page('about')) {
$bannerimg = 'about.jpg';
} else {
$bannerimg = 'home.jpg';}
?>

<img src="<?php echo $bannerimg; ?>" align="right" />

    as this is likely not to work, try for the last line:

    <img src="http://full_path_to_image_folder/<?php echo $bannerimg; ?>" align="right" />
