Calling PHP data from Oscommerce

[danielcompton]

Hi

Can any help me please?

I have setup Vbulletin and have the vertical navigation menu installed.

I also have a Oscommerce PHP eshop

what I want to do is call the php scripts so then run on vbullentin

Example on my oscommerce store there is a code that runs called whats_new.php and this randomlly shows products in my store..

I want to code this into my forum, so on the vertical menu I have added it randomally shows products on my store and when clicked takes users to that product on there store.


any ideas please?

this is the whats_new.php code from oscommerce.

to do it you have to change the links in the include file in the oscommerce php file - to do it you would be best to duplicate the oscommerce file and then setup the includes that you need
