Perhaps I can suggest an easier way to achieve this (not that I really
know what I'm writing about :-)):

Looking at the finished pages I found this:

> <div class="projectlogo">
> <a href="http://myproj.mygroup.org/"><img class="logoImage" alt="MyProject" src="images/project.png" title="MyProject Description"></a>
> </div>

to be the code that provides the image at the top-center of the page.
A similar section exists for the second logo.

Further down I found this

<ul id="tabs">
<li class="current">
<a class="base-selected" href="index.html">kayaking</a>
</li>

for the selected tab.

If (and that I'm not sure of) site2xhtml created these sections, it
means that it "knows" which tab is selected for this page (rather than
just assembling pieces from earlier transformations).

That being the case, could it not derive the Image-Sourcefilename from
the id-name of the selected tab "images/kayaking.png",
"images/bookcrossing.png", etc. ?

A switch in skinconfig could turn this mechanism on or off so that you
could either use the group/projekt system or an alternative
site/tab-system of logos.

Like Ross said, it is not yet implemented and will come in 0.7. 

If you want to do it then use your ideas, there sound alright. Still you
have to create your own skin.

<xsl:variable name="tab-logo"> 
 <xsl:value-of select="ul[@id='tabs']/li[class='current']"/>
</xsl:variable>

<div class="projectlogo">
  <xsl:call-template name="renderlogo">
     <xsl:with-param name="name" select="$tab-logo"/>
     <xsl:with-param name="url" select="www.$tab-logo.de"/>
     <xsl:with-param name="logo" select="images/$tab-logo"/>
     <xsl:with-param name="root" select="$root"/>
     <xsl:with-param name="description"
select="$config/project-description"/>
  </xsl:call-template>
</div>

Something like that.

Could somebody perhaps give some feedback if this is a feasible way to
achieve a tab dependent image on top of a page? There was no further
comment to this thread some weeks ago.

Thanks,
Ferdinand
