Hi Guys:

OK, transferred servers. On the new box, all the javascript that was part of my custom islands (rotating ads) would display on the Main index, but not on any sub-pages. Any URL than had any info after /ubbthreads.php would not display the javascript. I dunno.

OK, so I have the option of using php instaed of Java, and so I generated THAT code. Put it into the header and footer ... poof, no problem. Now the ads are displaying again. I can live with php.

BUT, when I try to make it work in the custom islands, no can do. I have some pretty important ad zones there, and I can't get them to display, either with javascript OR with php.

OK, so how do I make this php code, display in a custom island:


<?php
if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/phpadsnew/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
$phpAds_raw = view_raw ('zone:13', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
echo $phpAds_raw['html'];
}
?>


It displays fine outside the island.

If you prefer to see the javascript, I'll post that too.

Gotta display ads to pay the bills ...

Thanks all ...

Don't quote me on this but I think you need to move
"echo $phpAds_raw['html'];"
to be in between the EOF tags
So just place $phpAds_raw inside the eof tags don't use echo.
Not sure about the ['html'] part.

How about the

}
?>

Leave it up top, or not?

Off to play.

Okay when dealing with the islands you omit the php tags
Such as <?php or ?>
They are placed by the island script.

I see Giz is here now maybe he can give some input.
Also Giz maybe it is time to post a how do I for islands.

Ok, tried that.

This code:

/* PHP CODE HERE, IF NECESSARY */
if (@include(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/phpadsnew/phpadsnew.inc.php')) {
if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array();
$phpAds_raw = view_raw ('zone:13', 0, '', '', '0', $phpAds_context);
/* DO NOT CHANGE THE LINE BELOW */
$body = <<<EOF
echo $phpAds_raw['html'];
EOF;
/* DO NOT CHANGE THE LINE ABOVE */


gave me this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/XXXXXXXXXXXX/public_html/ubbthreads/cache_builders/custom/portal_box_10.php on line 8

I think that



Should end up:

And you're getting that error because you didn't close your if statement.

OK, Giz.

I copied the code from your second box there, and pasted it into my custom island, and got this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/XXXXXXXXXX/public_html/ubbthreads/cache_builders/custom/portal_box_10.php on line 10
