Hi !

I understand your requirements:
You want a special-page have a different icon. This is currently only achievable
by setting the field "Contains Plugin" of a page to some value and filling out
the $GLOBALS['ICON_TYPES'] array ...

for example tt_news is doing this so when you set a folder to "Contains Plugin: News"
the page will have a special icon.


I extended this feature a little bit (luckily without XCLASSes) and created an extension
for this purpose:

http://think-open.org/kraftb/index/T3X_kb_page_icon-0_0_1.t3x

The extension is uploaded to TER an will be available there in a few hours... until then
you can use the T3X from my server.


It simply adds a field "Pagetree Icon" to the pageheader/pagerecord of a page. At the
bottom you have this new field where you can upload a file/icon.

Really simple. Just read the docs. If any questions just write a mail to me ...


greets,
