javascript syndicated content...

I've created a javascript-output content hack, and it was working FANTASTIC until I went nuts with assigning parameters...and now I'm totally baffled and irritated and tired from no sleep.

The code works fine if you serve the page directly:

www.acuraworld.com/forums/js.php

It USED to work fine when called from a < script > tag, like so:

PHP Code:

<script language="javascript" src="http://www.acuraworld.com/forums/js.php"></script> 


Now the script tag reference doesn't return anything, and I don't get an error.

Yes, I know there are a lot of extra document . write () statements, and I'm not sure where they're surfacing. Here's the page code that creates the javascript:

PHP Code:

    document.write('        </td>');
    document.write('    </tr>');
<?php    
  }
}
?>
document.write('</table>');

Other than realize it's quick and dirty and not particularly efficient, I really just need to figure out why in tarnation it all of a sudden stopped working when called as a script reference.

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Got it working. The mistakes were stupid, like missing quotes in variable assignments, and forgetting to rename a variable after a copy/paste operation.

That's what I get for coding all night.
