news/fader

[upperking]

used like so

<? include("news.cgi"); ?>

this will insert a nice formatted news page into your static pages, like slash ubb.

You will need to edit the cgi to set up the right forum number. Also the html will probs need editing to wuit your site, currently set up for mine

then for optional headlines via newsfader

it is meant to be used via an <iframe> like so:

<IFRAME FRAMEBORDER=0 width=500 HEIGHT=53 SCROLLING=no SRC="/cgi-bin/wocheck.cgi?url=/cgi-bin/scripts.cgi&page=Scripts"></IFRAME>

Do you have a link we can go to so that we can see this hack in action?
