Help With Including File - Menu

[xDazedx]

Hey All I need some help.

On my main site I have a menu that I want to add into my forum. I tried adding it to the navbar and it shows up but the formatting is wrong. I created a file called menu.html which looks fine on a direct url call. I then created the pluggin below in the root forum directory.

$includedhtml = implode('', file('./menu.html'));

I then added $includedhtml to the navbar which shows me a nice "$includedhtml" on the forum but not the menu I am hoping to see lol.

What do I need to do to correct this?

Thanks for your help!

ok after finding another post for including a php file, it looks like the docs need to be changed for 4.0. Does anyone know the new code format for an html file?

Here is what I am using so far if this helps.

I have a file named menu.html with dhtml menu in it.

In the plugin I have the below and I am using global_start. I have also tried using 'navbar' instead of header.

$templater = vB_Template::create('menu');
$templatevalues['menu'] = $templater->render();
vB_Template::preRegister('header', $templatevalues);

Then in the navbar I have added the below and still I can't get this menu to appear.

{vb:raw menu}
