External Links Framed · **Released**: 08-03-2006

This will make all links out of your forum, come in a nice frame

Upload external.php to your forum root directory

Simply Create a template 'external_link'

Code:

<body bgcolor="#CCCCCC" text="#FF6633" link="#FF6633" vlink="#FF6633" alink="#FF6633" style="margin: 0px;">
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" >
  <tr> 
    <td valign="top"><img src="http://www.gentendo.com/forum/images/top_bg.gif"> 
      <a href="javascript:window.close()"><font size="7">Close Window</font></a> 
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
<iframe src="{$go}" height="90%" width="100%" frameborder="0">

</iframe>
</body>

Change this, this just gives you the jist of what it does.

Edit includes/class_bbcode.php
find

Code:

return "<a href=\"$rightlink\" target=\"_blank\">$text</a>";

replace with

Code:

return "<a href=\"http://www.urltoyourexternalframe.php?go=$rightlink\" target=\"_blank\">$text</a>";

and of course replace urltoyourexternal to the url to your external...

MAKE SURE YOU CHANGE THE TEMPLATE

The one i made was ugly and i made it in like 5 minutes :P Dont think the example is what it will look like, it can look like anything you want

example: http://www.gentendo.com/forum/extern...www.google.com
(they wont need to put the path to external.php on the url, vb.org dosent have it installed so i need to put the full path for the example.)
or go to http://www.gentendo.com/forum/showth...=2406#post2406 for a live link.

^^^ i have worked it out, there is a problem with this code, every time you edit the post and save, it add's another http://www.myforum.com/ext.php?go= so this can go on forever if you edit posts alot, please fix this and repost.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
