The Tide Table code has to be in the index.php file as it contains information for multiple locations that is refreshed when you click on the location you want. Here is the Tide Table link:

Can anyone tell me if this can be implemented with this hack? Thanks for your help!

I have this hack pretty much done, except I want to do the same thing you do.

I think this post applies to what we want to do. (This is speaking of images, but I think the same methodology for calling other pages applies) I'd really like to display a separate PHP file in the main window. Seems this isn't like working in frames like HMTL...

is there a version of this for vB3.5 series?

It works on 3.5. The only change you should make is to move $headinclude up before <title> in the template.

You mean like this:

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]

<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

<head>

$headinclude

<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>

</head>

<body>

$header



$navbar



<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

<tr>

        <td class="tcat">Title</td>

</tr>

<tr>

        <td class="alt1">Text</td>

</tr>

</table>



$footer

</body>

</html>

If thats right, does nothing need to be changed in the PHP file?

Yes, thats right. Nothing in the PHP file needs to be changed.

Is there an edit to the file so I won't to change it (I mean, the 3.5.x version).

Thanks worked perfect on Vb 3.0.12 :up:

I'm gonna bookmark this page. Not got the time right now, but excellent work nonetheless. Well done.

How do you get the Who's Online to work in 3.5.3?

I did the original edit, but it came back with "Unknown" and a link to a file on my server.

I see that when you click on "Currently Active Users" it's online.php that handles it. What do I change in there?

Meanwhile, I'll keep trying some things.

Great tutorial. Thanks ;)
