I know they can't, basically I have been trying to work out a way to create a rainbow paid subscription...I have found the following code which works great but as you say the problem is that the templates cannot execute php and the hooks don't like to parse the function.

heres the code if you can help?

PHP Code:

<?php
function rainbow($text) {
$i = 0;
$textlength = strlen($text);
while($i<=$textlength){
/*You can change the colors below if you want; just change the font color=color part.*/
if ($text[$i] != "") {
echo "<font color=red>".$text[$i]."</font>";}
if ($text[$i+1] != "") {
echo "<font color=orange>".$text[$i+1]."</font>";}
if ($text[$i+2] != "") {
echo "<font color=yellow>".$text[$i+2]."</font>";}
if ($text[$i+3] != "") {
echo "<font color=green>".$text[$i+3]."</font>";}
if ($text[$i+4] != "") {
echo "<font color=blue>".$text[$i+4]."</font>";}
if ($text[$i+5] != "") {
echo "<font color=purple>".$text[$i+5]."</font>";}
$i = $i+6;}}
?>

I am very familier with php but cannot get this working...it would seem even in hooks or using vbulletin's manual way of including php through the global hook doesn't even work.

Can you help?

edit: btw to make something 'rainbow' effect you wrap the text in the function like rainbow("TEXT HERE"); but obviously I cant find anyway of including that into the postbit....even through hooks.
