I have solved the Category Title issue (simply using the wrong tag – duh), but the menu highlighting issue remains.

1. The template tag code for Post Image you’re using in your template(s).

<div class="entry">
<!--start of Image-Post plugin-->
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><img src="<?php post_image('/images/post.jpg', true, false); ?>" /></a>
</div>
<!--end of image-Post plugin-->
</div>

2. The source for your page(s) (i.e. View Source in your browser), specifically the portion of the source where the image would be located..

This is the code used for the page in the screenshot I sent you with multiple images inside square boxes. Where the code is <img src="" /> is where there should be no image (and no Red ‘X’ in IE). This code created two of these boxes, the first without an image, the second with.

<div class="image-post-archive-float">
<div class="image-post-archive">
<div class="entry">
<!--start of Post-Image plugin-->
<a href="http://localhost:8888/hanaforward/this-should-be-nothing-in-ie"><img src="" /></a>
</div>
<!--end of Post-Image plugin-->
</div>
<!--faking the minimum height of the coloured rectangle surrounding the text-->
<div class="image-post-archive-fake-height">&nbsp;
</div>
<h5 class="image-post-archive-title" id="post-16"><a href="http://localhost:8888/hanaforward/this-should-be-nothing-in-ie" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to this should be nothing in IE">this should be nothing in IE</a></h5>

</div>

<div class="image-post-archive-float">
<div class="image-post-archive">
<div class="entry">
<!--start of Post-Image plugin-->
<a href="http://localhost:8888/hanaforward/post-image-tester-should-be-pirate"><img src="http://localhost:8888/hanaforward/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/shaun_pirate.thumbnail.jpg&quot; /></a>
</div>
<!--end of Post-Image plugin-->
</div>

Excellent, I’ll give it a go.

On another point, did you know if someone doesn’t enter an image into a post, IE6 still displays a red ‘x’ missing image symbol. You can see my example here: http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=345721711&size=l. Where as in Firefox it does what I like and displays nothing – see here: http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=345721617&size=l.

You’ve already done more than was required, so don’t pick your brain too much. Am I being ignorant again? Is there a quick solution? Or does IE6 just display the red ‘x’ when there is no image present all the time?

wow – thank you again for taking your time.

“Post Image will display, if it exists, an image sporting the ID or post-name (the post’s title in url format, or the post slug)). Otherwise it will go with the first uploaded image.”

Was this on the plugin page on your website? Am I just being stupid?

I love the idea of being able to add ‘post-image’ to the attachment title and Post Image would choose that one. Am I correct in assuming this could just be part of the title? i.e. I wouldn’t have to title every attachment just post-image, I would have the flexibility to include a custom title such as experimental work post-image, or even post-image experimental work. Also, if the user decided they made the wrong decision could they then appropriately include ‘post-image’ in the title and this would override their first choice?

Are these amendments really that simple? Would you really do them?

Sorry, sorry I know I’ve committed the all-too-common sin of asking three more questions when you only meant to answer one. Please forgive me. Your help is really appreciated (I will definitely be donating via your site).

Kind of got it solved by using

.narrowcolumn img {
max-width 650px
}

Easy!

Of course MSIE doesn’t support it and for some reason I can’t get the famed msie ‘fake’ max-width javascript to work in the same way. It kind of stretches all the images to that size.

width:expression(document.body.clientWidth > 650? “650px”: “auto” )

Suggestions?
