Sorry - forgot the IE p ic:

Yes I test it as you can see here:
www.swzone.org/main_home.php

It works but gives out many errors.

And I don't know how to solve it.

Rostor,

I, too, was getting your exact same error. I went round and round for days wondering what the heck was going on in my little NT world. :(

I have found that IIS appears to have problems with filtering or parsing included files. The IIS include is looking for a txt or HTML file, and thus I could not get it working with a plain SHTM(L) include statement.

What I did as a work around, is I set up my SHTM pages to be parsed by the PHP Isapi filter versus the ssinc.dll that is default. Basically my homepage is now PHP parsed, but still mostly HTML-based. Have I confused you yet? :)

Now that my page is PHP-parsed, I can just just the standard <? include("last10.php"); ?> statement in my code and everything works fine. I was a bit nervous about doing this as I wondered if any of my FP extensions would not function, but all seems to working well. (knock on wood)

You can view how I implemented the hack on my site at www.mhogaming.com

Hope that helps...

Kevin and Steve,

I am having the same problem on Netscape 4.7 with the overlapping of the end of the thread title at www.citysailor.com

I removed the <nobr> tags, but it did not help.


A guess a Kludgy solution might be to specifically limit the number of letters printed, depending on the space allocated.

[By the way, if anyone reading this knows how to make the background image on Netscape just x-repeat, instead of repeating down the whole page, please let me know]

First of all- I would like to thank tubedogg for ths wonderful hack! It is a great traffic builder! Thanks tubedogg!
Now on to my (stupid) concern:
I don't know a thing about "Parsed", never heard of the term. But I WAS able to follow the "Last XX Post" instructions up until the point of having the "last10.php" work :) . The problem I am having is incorperating this into some sort of HTML (or similar) document.

How EXACTLY is this accomplished?

Thanks in advance...

Hi Jarvis thx for your help but i take a different way to solve the problem :)
Last Week I bought 2 books about PHP and started to study it !!!
After 3 days i make little modify to lastXX so now the hack works fine with IIS5.

First:
In the lastxxconfig.php file I add this lines:
// by rostor
$counter = "";
// fine inserimento rostor

So a problem with undefined constant has been solved.

Second:
In the lastxx.php I defined this line with " " :)

// if the title is more than $len characters, we need to cut it off and add ... to the end
if (strlen($threads["title"]) > $len) {
$title = substr($threads["title"],0,$len);
$title .= "...";
} else {
$title = $threads["title"];
}
// convert the date to a format readable by non-unix geeks :)
$fd = date($fdt,$threads["lastpost"]);

That's All

Has anyone else included this hack into a non VB page (HTML document) and then looked at it in Netscat? It's not pretty.....and this particular line of code really confuses me...:

Is defining style = font-family: font size......etc. within a table cell tag a valid argument???

Yep - this doesn't look good in Netscape 4.7x at all. I wish I knew how to fix the HTML so it works with NS as well.

I wish I knew how to put it in HTML period! Can't anyone help me with this?

try changing the name of your file to .shtml from .html and put this code in where you want the last 10 to show up on your page:

Your choice of

<!--#include virtual="last10/last10.php"-->

or

<!--#include file="last10/last10.php"-->

If folder your.shtml file is in is not above the last10 folder in your directory, you need to do "../last10/last10.php" instead (note the "../" ) That tells it to look up one folder before looking down for the last10 folder .
