1 header for Home Page, Different header for the rest

[jxns]

I want a flash animation to appear as the header for the home page, but the rest of the versions to show a static version.

I thought I could use a PHP include but realised I cant as they are TPL files, has anyone got any ideas?

Thanks

OK see below how I solved for those who want to know how to do this

Inserting PHP into a tpl file:

{php}
include('header_flash.php');
{/php}

The code to display a different flash header on index.php (this is the file header_flash.php):

<?php
if(basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])=='index.php')
{
include 'flash_anim.php';
}
else
{
include 'flash_static.php';
}
?>

This is another way of doing it.

Go to header.php in the root. Look for the last two lines:

$smarty->display(_PS_THEME_DIR_.'header.tpl');

?>

Change it to

if ($page_name == 'index')
$smarty->display(_PS_THEME_DIR_.'header-something.tpl');
else
$smarty->display(_PS_THEME_DIR_.'header.tpl');

?>

Then just prepare a header-something.tpl and upload it to the themes folder. That is it.

Thank you Star. I did what you said and it works.

This is the best way here.
