Hi,
I want to be able to put a flash menu in the header (this part is easy) But the problem comes is that I want a different flash menu to be displayed when the language of Welsh is chosen and just a standard english one if any other language is choosen, any ideas?
Thanks,
Richard

Use a custom header (see docs), and decide which menu to add based on the value of $CONFIG['lang']

Could you please give me some more detail on how to do this I have looked at the FAQ docs, but I am new to PHP, I am a java coder by trade, any help would be great,
Thanks,
Richard

Look in your theme.php for the theme you wish to modify and find the pageheader function. Then under

'{ADMIN_MENU}' => theme_admin_mode_menu(),

add

'{MY_NEW_HEADER}' => $CONFIG['lang'] == 'welsh' ? 'your welsh banner code' : 'your other banner code'

And then in the corresponding template.html file you add the placeholder tag

{MY_NEW_HEADER}

in the place on the page you wish the header to be displayed.

Thanks for all the help, it now looks really good,
