Include the entire script on the test page (with <? and ?>, and change the paths in the top to your site.
chdir("forum/");
require('./global.php');
chdir("../");
This switches to the forum directory, grabs the config file and switches back. Make sure the closing PHP tag is present as well.

I'm using 3.5.2 on this, but had it working (with a small change) on 3.07/8.

Thanks for your time. I added

chdir("forum/");
require('./global.php');  
chdir("../");

and <? at the beginning and ?> at the end but got a databse error message. The email I received said a table that it's looking for doesn't exist.

Invalid SQL:
SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP() AS dateline, dateline_from, eventid, title
                           FROM event
                           WHERE calendarid = 1 AND dateline_from >= UNIX_TIMESTAMP()

                           ORDER BY dateline_from LIMIT 10;
