is there any way of pulling the block name of the current block being displayed in the template?
i am wanting to but the block name in the id of my tags so that i can use CSS to pull different images for each block.

hmmm... sounds a little more complicated than i thought it would be. i was hoping you could call the block name from the database the same way you'd include the title or the information in it, like {block_name} or something like that. oh well, i'll look into it.

Here is what I did in lib-common.php file there at around line 1144 add this:
$patterns[0] = "/'/";
$patterns[1] = "/ /";
$replacements[0] = "";
$replacements[1] = "";
$block->set_var( 'block_id', preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $title));
right after this line:
Then in your block template files you can use {block_id} as your class name. the replacements are to make the {block_id} a valid class name.
Yes I am mental.

$patterns[0] = "/'/";
$patterns[1] = "/ /";
$replacements[0] = "";
$replacements[1] = "";
$block->set_var( 'block_id', preg_replace($patterns, $replacements, $title));
right after this line:

$block->set_var( 'block_title', stripslashes( $title ));Then in your block template files you can use {block_id} as your class name. the replacements are to make the {block_id} a valid class name.
