Has anyone modified this hack for use in a sidebar...with like a vertical list of the online users, with links to their profiles? If so, would you mind sharing your code? :D

upload online.php to the forums server and make it all work ok, then on you other website, use PHP INCLUDES to include it into your website...
you can see my version here:

Can SSI calls include files from another server,

<--!include file="http://anotherhost.com/online.php"-->

OR

<--!include virtual="http://anotherhost.com/online.php"-->

the page i want online members to be on is *.shtml on a different server.

Help anyone?

As far as i know SSI can only be used with files on the same server, but Includes can include files from anywhere..

Not running this - yet, at any rate. But looking at the code...

FIND
$regmemberson .= ", ";
REPLACE WITH
$regmemberson .= "<br>";

FIND
echo("Member(s) on: $regmemberson. Guest(s) on: $guestson.");
REPLACE WITH
echo("Member(s) on:<BR>$regmemberson.<BR>Guest(s) on:<BR>$guestson.");

My understanding of the code is that this should produce:

Member(s) on:
Hammer
Friend
JDoe
JBloggs.
Guest(s) on:
8.

Should be easy to program that as a configuration option; I'd fix "Member(s)" to work properly too, to be honest... not a difficult thing.
