Default external.php not functioning

Dear all,

This is my first post, so please...

I have spent several days searching in vBulletin.org and vBulletin.com forums on how to use my external data but found nothing.

What I want to do is to display latest vB forum post and topics in my frontpage. I tried Javascript and RSS but both doesnt work.

I have enabled Javascript, RSS and XML from the External Data panel in Admin Control Panel. But I can see nothing... Empty....

I use Mozilla Thunderbird to read RSS but I cant pull anything from my own RSS.

My Forum URL is :-

http://www.i-symbian.com/forum

Here are the codes that I use:-

JS : http://www.i-symbian.com/forum/external.php?type=js
RSS : http://www.i-symbian.com/forum/external.php?type=rss
RSS2 : http://www.i-symbian.com/forum/external.php?type=rss2
XML : http://www.i-symbian.com/forum/external.php?type=xml

I also use another code to pull information using Javascript (using composeexternal.php hack) :-
Quote:
<b>15 latest threads in forum:</b><br/><table>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.i-symbian.com/forum/external.php?forumids=&type=js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var max = 15;
if(threads.length < max) max = threads.length;
for(i = 0; i < max; i++)
{
if (threads[i].title.length > 20)
{ threads[i].title = threads[i].title.substring(0, 20) + '...'; }
document.writeln("<tr><td style="background-color:#cccccc"><a href="http://www.i-symbian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=" + threads[i].threadid + "">" + threads[i].title + "</a> </td><td><small>(von " + threads[i].poster + ")</small></td><td><small>" + threads[i].threaddate + "</small></td></tr>");
}
//-->
</script>
</table>
But NONE of the above works.

What did I do wrong? Can you guys please help? Is there anything else that still needs to be done apart from enabling the External Data provider to make this works? I'm really exhausted finding answer for this.

Please...

Rgds
