hi all,

I installed vb 2.5 and wanted to include the file last.php in the header of my vb page.
The last.php file connects to a different database on my site and retrievs the last 7 records on it. The last.php file looks like:

PHP Code:

<?   

$dbservertypee="mysql";  

$servernamee="localhost";  
$dbusernamee="name";  
$dbpasswordd="pass"; 

$dbnamee="db"; 

$urll="http://www.mysite.com";  
   
$topicss = "7";
   

     $db=mysql_connect($servername,$dbusername,$dbpassword);   
    mysql_select_db($dbname);   

  $query = "select * from table1 where catname='general'";   
  $queryresult = mysql_query($query);   
  $count = mysql_numrows($queryresult);  
      



  $query2 = "select * from table1 where catname='general' order by idnum desc limit 0,$topics";   
  $queryresult2 = mysql_query($query2);   
  $count2=mysql_numrows($queryresult2);   

if ($count2 == "0") {   
    echo "No records";  
}   

else {   

    while($row = mysql_fetch_object($queryresult2)) {  
          
        
    echo "<tr>
        <td width=\"20\" bgcolor=\"#F0F0F0\" align=\"center\">
        <img border=\"0\" src=\"http://www.mysite.com/photos/new.gif\" width=\"12\" height=\"10\"></td>
        
<td bgcolor=\"#F0F0F0\" align=\"right\"       onMouseOver=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#fffeff';this.style.cursor='hand';\" 
onMouseOut=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#F0F0F0';\" 
onClick=\"window.location.href='http://www.mysite.com/index.php?ct=general&md=details&id=$row->idnum'\">
<a href=\"$url/index.php?ct=general&md=details&id=$row->idnum\">$row->title</a></font></td>
        <td bgcolor=\"#F0F0F0\" width=\"80\">
        <p align=\"center\"><b><font size=\"2\">$row->field01</font></span></b></td>
      </tr>
";  


    }   

}   

mysql_close();   
?>

then I modyfy the phpinlude template as follows:

ob_start();
require("/path/last.php");
$last = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();


this causes a seriuos problem in my forum and error msgs show up even before I put the &last variable in the header!!!

I have been trying to figure out what is going on, but failed to fix it.

Can anyone plz help me with this?! Any help is apreciated


thanx a lot
