UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic UBB.classic 6 Support Calling ultimatebb.cgi from HTML

Really stupid question, so bare with me. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I want to call the ultimatebb.cgi from within an existing HTML document, so it will load into a table I have on that page.

Could someone tell me to command to do that?

Thank you

I may be wrong, but I don't think that would work.

What you can do is add HTML table code into the UBB header and footer, using the UBB control panel. I.e., you would basically merge your existing HTML document into the UBB, rather than the other way around.

ah, ok. Will do it that way.

Thank you

You could also use FRAMES. Make a web page with the UBB in a frame (a big frame). The limit is that the frame will be smaller than small screen if you had html code down the left hand side.

But with UBB its easiest to just use their setup and use the HEADER options. It prevents people from loading the UBB outside of your frames which would be outside of the format that you setup.

Actually you want to avoid using frames with UBB. There are several browsers that won't handle UBB's cookies properly if frames are used.

Sorry JC -- for the layman me, if you can be a li'l more elaborate on how to use it please <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Yors Truly<p><i>Who? Me? Worry?</i>

Place that call within the page you want to call it from.

As Zach said, place either tag with the correct pathing into the html document of your choice <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
