You're missing global.php. Try this:

HTML Code:

<? require_once('global.php'); ?>
<html>
<head>
<? echo $style['css']; ?>
</head>
<body>
<span class="alt1"><strong>Blah...</strong><br /><br />Blah Blah</span>
</body>
</html>

Which may produce some warning, but let's see if it works.

Actually, no warning occurs and no changes either

It still shows a white background with black text.

We may have missed something very simple. alt1 and alt2 do not apply to <span>, I don't think.

You can test by accessing ther iframe page directly from the browser, and view the source, to see if the style is there as expected.

If I access this page directly it still shows up as black Times New Roman (browser default font) text with a white background.

Even if the alt1 and alt2 aren't working properly, shouldn't the colour work? ...and the font?

I know that people have used IFRAMEs to display things like the shoutbox, etc.

I'm not sure because I don't have the files.

But what happens when you view the page source? What style is defined there?

m0nde · #16 06-30-2005, 04:07 PM

The source, when viewing the file directly in a web browser doesn't expand the PHP script at all!
It just shows the literal text. Why is this?

That's how it should work. You're all set.

You're telling me the source, when viewed in a web browser is supposed to show up like:

HTML Code:

<? require_once('/forums/global.php'); ?>
<html>
<head>
<? echo $style['css']; ?>
</head>
<body>
<span class="alt1"><strong>Blah</strong><br /><br />Blah Blah</span>
</body>
</html>

I thought that the require_once was supposed to actually include all of global.php in that space and that the command to echo the style variable was supposed to type out the contents of that variable in that space.

No, I thought you said it showed the lirterals. I took that to mean the actual colour codes for alt1 and alt2.

The page view you showed tells me that you have not made the file a .php as I suggested earlier. To interpret it as PHP, it needs to be a PHP extension.

Thanks. I have tried this both with an HTML extension and a PHP extension. When I try it with a PHP extension, it just shows up as blank with a white background. You've seen above what happens when I try it with an HTML extension.

The source of the PHP file if viewed after being parsed shows up as follows:

PHP Code:


			
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<HTML><HEAD>

<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"></HEAD>

<BODY></BODY></HTML>

It seems that the global.php is the problem because if that is excluded the rest of the file shows something. I know that global.php resides in that place (/forums/global.php) and I've tried replacing the whole thing with:

PHP Code:


			
<? phpinfo(); ?>

to test whether anything's going on and this does show the information page in the IFRAME.
