I am using DOCman 1.5 with K2. The K2 css for img causes all images on the site to have padding, margins and a border. I have DOCman pdfs listed in K2 with the pdf icon to the left in the content but everything is spacing strange because of the K2 css. How can I override the K2 css prevent these styles from being applied to the pdf icons specifically?Here is a sample link:

66.147.244.53/~uchdnet/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&layout=item&id=227&Itemid=301

 

Thanks!

Hi Ric Ordea,

 

You can try by deleting the margin and border in k2.css and just remain with the padding

div.itemFullText img { background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #151515;
border:  ;
margin: 0px;
padding: 2px;
}

and remove the same for the light-theme.css

Thanks Kannan!

The problem is that I only want to unformat the pdf icon images. If I change the k2.css it will reformat all images in the articles on the entire site. Is there any way to just format the icon image based on image name or something like that? DOCman doesn't apply id tags to the images or this would be easy.

Can anyone else offer any suggestion to resolve this issue?

Hi Ric,

 

You can add a custom class name to the pdf image like :

 

<img class="mypdfcss" alt="icon" src="/~uchdnet/components/com_docman/themes/default/images/icons/16x16/pdf.png">

 

and add the mypdfcss values and properties to a css file.

 

Just another suggestion, you can even make use of the excellent JB Type plugin by JoomlaBamboo It's free and supports Joomla 1.5 to 1.7. It also has a JCE JB Type plugin

Thanks again, unfortunately that requires my client to edit the code for each item they use the DOCman button to add an icon. Very easy but very scary to their non-coding little brains. Any ideas to how I can apply this class on the backend so that anytime the DOClink button places the code into the article the img will have the class assigned?

 

I really like the JB Type plugin! Definitely will be adding that!

Hi Ric,

 

Not sure how DOCman works but maybe you can ask the developers there for a quick fix ? Just a suggestion.
