I am very new at Drupal but learning fast (maybe). I am utilizing a theme I purchased on line. This is a 3 column theme and at the top of the middle column is a graphic. The graphic is called pic.jpg and is only on the home page. The code for the page.tpl.php is
if ($is_front != ""):
print theme_image(path_to_theme().'/images/pic.jpg', '', '', array('class'=>'pic'))
endif;
I would like to replace that with a .swf file that is the exact same size. I wanted there to be one swf on the home page an another to be on all the other pages. I added a region called "top content" where I can do this. I worked but it made my right column not show up.??? Because of this I think a solution would be to embed the code somewhere to have the first swf file to show up in the code above and the second (repeating) swf file to show on every other page.
1.)Am I think correctly and if so how can I do this? What would the code to embed the swf look like here?
2.)Should I delete this line of code of the pic.jpg and revert back to blocks and my new region I built and try to get that working correctly?
Thank you
