CSS Date Icon on posts

Hi guys

Firstly, Thank You for everything you do to make this theme everything that it is! - You're legends!

Secondly, I'm really sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, but i can't find if it has anywhere, and also if it sounds like something dumb, i apologize !

I'm just starting to set up my theme and i came across this post http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=12627 about putting a date/calender icon in kicker of posts.

Just what i wanted...

Then i came across this post - http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthr...light=calendar - that detailed the change in code in 3.6.4 - Sweet!

So now i am using 3.6.7 and i notice that the add HTML/CSS section states

Quote:

Since 3.6.5 PHP code cannot be used anymore in HTML/CSS Inserts

This is fine, but in the first post, the call for the icon image was:

Code:

   background: url('<?php get_option('wpurl'); ?>/wp-content/atahualpa_images/cal-redgradient.jpg') repeat-x  scroll top left;

Now the above has a PHP call in it. So my question is, with 3.6.7, what would the new code be?

I've had a try to sort it, but i can't seem to get it working

Can someone point me in the right direction to save me pulling out any more hair ?

Many Thanks
Mark
