Don't use echo. Put the variable into the template or use a template_hook. Also, it is probably not a good idea to use a variable named $php.

ok.

original code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<?php
$today = date('Y-m-d');
$con = mysql_connect('localhost', 'username', 'passwd1'); # please put appropriate values here
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("dbname_currency", $con); # please replace 'mydb' with your database name.
$query = "SELECT cur_rate FROM currency WHERE cur_date = '$today' AND cur_code = 'PHP'";
$result = mysql_query($query)
or die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array( $result );
$php = $row['cur_rate'];

echo "1 USD = PHP $php";?>
</body>
</html>

and then the plugin using vbulletin and global_start

$today = date('Y-m-d');
$con = mysql_connect('localhost', 'username', 'passwd1'); # please put appropriate values here
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("dbname_currency", $con); # please replace 'mydb' with your database name.
$query = "SELECT cur_rate FROM currency WHERE cur_date = '$today' AND cur_code = 'PHP'";
$result = mysql_query($query)
or die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array( $result );
$php = $row['cur_rate'];

then in the header:
echo "1 USD = PHP $php

$php is scraping philippine peso and is standard at yahoo for that currency so i cannot change it unfortunately.

is this what you wanted?

can you help me now?
