you could insert an image just by the html code of the content

for a banner I think you should make 3 sections, a content section on the top, a banner and then another content section (but maybe there's a simpler way....)

Thanks but your first option is not what i'm looking for.
It will only give me a way to place an image into the article's body and not between 2 content "Previews" i think.

maybe your second option will suit.
but i don't know how to implement this.

in the template's index.php there is a line to include the content:
<?php include ("mainbody.php"); ?>

will i have to include other file/s for every different section and beween those "includes" i'll put my banner/image?

if not, how do i do that exactly?

Find this code in components/com_content/content.php (mambo version 4.5.2.1):

Code:

if ( $leading ) {
			echo '<tr>';
			echo '<td valign="top">';
			for ( $z = 0; $z < $leading; $z++ ) {
				if ( $i >= $total ) {
					// stops loop if total number of items is less than the number set to display as leading
					break;
				}
				echo '<div>';
				show( $rows[$i], $params, $gid, $access, $pop, $option, $ItemidCount );
				echo '</div>';
				$i++;
			}
			echo '</td>';
			echo '</tr>';
			
		}

then replace by this code:

Code:

if ( $leading ) {
			echo '<tr>';
			echo '<td valign="top">';
			for ( $z = 0; $z < $leading; $z++ ) {
				if ( $i >= $total ) {
					// stops loop if total number of items is less than the number set to display as leading
					break;
				}
				echo '<div>';
				show( $rows[$i], $params, $gid, $access, $pop, $option, $ItemidCount );
				echo '</div>';
				$i++;
			}
			echo '<br>';
			mosLoadModules( 'banner', -1 ); // insert banners or images here
			echo '</td>';
			echo '</tr>';
			
		}

Perhaps mosbanner is an option/solution for you. You can find it at http://www.tobbworld.de (under Downloads/Mambo).

Good luck.
