Error in integrating External PHP File having Graph (Images generated by PHP code)
 

hi all,

i was trying to play around with vbquiz (free version from DBTech).

I am trying to integrate a external php file which is having a graph(piechart). i am including this external php page by creating a plugin with code

ob_start();
require_once('LOCATION OF EXTERNAL FILE');
$php_include = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
vB_Template::preRegister('TEMPLATE YOU ARE USING',array('php_include' => $php_include));

and then adding the variable in the template with this code at required space.

{vb:raw php_include}

but it is giving error like this:

please help me out.

thanks in advance.........

Yes, it looks like you're trying to insert an image file in the middle of your html. What happens if you do this instead?


or even just put that html directly into the template?
