Yes they have to be in there, but the file that they are included in, the file that I told you to put those required lines before the < html > tag. That file has to be in there as well.
This simple post here:

Puts it out there, and I think it's pretty much the truth.
You can use the refresh html command to make it go there like I do. When people go to
www.GameForumz.com it loads an index file that has this line
<META http-equiv=Refresh content=0;URL=http://www.theforumz.com/forumz/news.php>
right after the <html > tag. Is what it tells the browser to do, is instantly refresh the browser and go to my news page that IS within my vb directory. This is the easiest way I have foudn to get this script to work. Then in my news page I have this line
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="300">
Which tells the news page to refresh ever 5 minutes. This makes it so that when the page is updated, people will know about it, at a maximum time of 5 minutes since it was last updated. You can use longer if it's a page that is only updated a few times a day or something. This is what I do and it seems to work. MY only problem is that the script gets this error at the bottom of the page:
Warning: 1 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/theforum/public_html/forumz/admin/db_mysql.php on line 93
There seems to have been a slight problem with the database. Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.
An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.
We apologise for any inconvenience.

which I have narrowed down to if you have both the headlines and the news file running on the same page it gives that error. The news by itself doesn't give that error and the headlines by itself doesn't give that error. I have been working on getting rid of this error for quite some time, but have still been unsuccessful on doing so.
I am going to email Kayn today and see if he can help with this error. If not, then even after all the tweaking and hacking on this error and 25 pages of posts, nobody will know how to get this hack to run. If I find out more I will let you know though. :up:
