Help with a very small news script
 

Hello,

Im trying to install a news hack ( https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=70648 ) the thing thats making it not work is in index.php I had to put this:

between the 2 eval's after // ### ALL DONE... and it gives me a blank page, could anyone please help me? The problem is not in the template.

thanks a mil.

Hmm ok ive done the new db_site->query and I couldnt find the dateline thing. But here is what I have (an excert from my index.php file)

The page still shows blank.

// ### ALL DONE! SPIT OUT THE HTML AND LET'S GET OUTA HERE... ###

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');

// ### news ###

$news = $DB_site->query("select thread.threadid,thread.title,thread.replycount,thr ead.postusername,thread.dateli ne,post.postid,post.pagetext from thread,post where thread.forumid=2 and post.postid=thread.firstpostid group by thread.firstpostid order by threadid desc limit 4;");

$n = 0;
while($newsitem = mysql_fetch_row($news)){
$n++;
$newstitle[$n]=$newsitem["1"];
$newsreply[$n]=$newsitem["2"];
$newsuser[$n]=$newsitem["3"];
$newsdate[$n]=vbdate("D j M Y, g:i A",$newsitem["4"]);
$newsthread[$n]=$newsitem["5"];
$limittext[$n]=parse_bbcode($newsitem["6"]);
$newstext[$n] = substr($limittext[$n], 0, 200) . "...";
$newsavatar[$n]=$newsitem["7"];
}

// ### news ###

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('FORUMHOME') . '");');

Can you see the space now?

What the... I am looking at it right now, exactly what I pasted and there is no dateli ne its just dateline hmmm.... I'll paste again, its still giving me a blank page :(

// ### news hack ###

$news = $DB_site->query("select thread.threadid,thread.title,thread.replycount,thr ead.postusername,thread.dateline,post.postid,post. pagetext from thread,post where thread.forumid=2 and post.postid=thread.firstpostid group by thread.firstpostid order by threadid desc limit 4;");

$n = 0;
while($newsitem = mysql_fetch_row($news)){
$n++;
$newstitle[$n]=$newsitem["1"];
$newsreply[$n]=$newsitem["2"];
$newsuser[$n]=$newsitem["3"];
$newsdate[$n]=vbdate("D j M Y, g:i A",$newsitem["4"]);
$newsthread[$n]=$newsitem["5"];
$limittext[$n]=parse_bbcode($newsitem["6"]);
$newstext[$n] = substr($limittext[$n], 0, 200) . "...";
$newsavatar[$n]=$newsitem["7"];
}

[EDIT] OMG! why i it showing dateli ne in here and dateline in my text?!?!?!.... investigating[/EDIT]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Ok there isnt actually a space in the dateline... this forum just creates a space if there are too many chars close together.

but its still not working, any help?

Anyone have a clue? It's not dateline, that was just a vb.org forum bug. It's still showing a blank page... I have no clue why.

Hmm, is working just fine on my board. Do you use table-prefixes?

Hmm weird. I just tried it again with forumid 4 (which has NO posts in it) and it worked. But then I changed ti to forum 2 which has 2 posts in it and it shows up blank.

Is there another way I could organize the queries to the DB? Im thinking thats the problem... Because creating variables wouldnt make a blank page I don't think.

Found my problem!!! I needed

require_once('./includes/functions_bbcodeparse.php');

In index.php
