two blockquote images?

  • Hi,

    I have a blockquote image that appears in the background and it’s being used as an opening image of a blockquote.
    I want to have also another image at the bottom of the quote to “close” that quote.
    The problem is that I can’t make one file with both images at the corners, since the quotes’ sizes are different.
    Is that possible to call 2 different background images for tha quotes? One for the top and the other for the bottom?

    Thanks,
    M

  • you dont need to use them both as background images. if you look at how the sites that are doing that, do it — they aren’t either. I would show you a working example, but I no longer do that soo…

    Well, that nice trick with the span, but how could I do that with WordPress? as when I add a blockquote in the editor it adds the

    tag, how could I enter the <span> at the end of it?
    Should I change it in the core wordpres files someehre to have this ending span?

    what I did was edit the wp-includes/quicktags.js file so that when I added a blockquote, it automatically added all the nify stuff around it.

    edButtons[edButtons.length]=new edButton("ed_block","b-quote","\n\n<blockquote>","</blockquote>\n\n","q");

    –>

    edButtons[edButtons.length]=new edButton("ed_block","b-quote","\n\n<blockquote>","---stuff you want to happen at the end the blockquotes would go here--</blockquote>\n\n","q");

    it really depends on how you do it though.

    Thanks for that. Anyway, I really prefer to find solutions that don’t deal with changing WordPress core files, since all of them are being replaced on a version upgdate, and it’s quite uncomfortable to re-replace all of those changed core files on every version upgrade.

    Isn’t there around a solution that can be made without changing code in the wordpress core files?
