Yes they need to be in a PHP page, if your server doesn't parse .html for PHP code. Just copy any of the code snippets here that you need, and save them as something.php. Then your name your portal page index.php and inside there just use the include command to call something.php. It should look something like this:
Code:
<html>
<?php
include("something.php");
?>
</html>
Of course with all of your other html code for your main page in there as well.

Now I'm confused (I'm new at this) When people type in my url they will not get the .php index file, they get my .html index file. This is where I want to include this stuff. If there is a way that when people go to my url they will get the index.php file that would be great.
Another point where I'm lost is: I don't have a template in my list (from the admin control panel) for Index.php Should I be using the Forumhome.php file for this? Also, I copied the code for the topposts list that I want (one that I see on Eva2000's site and on Paintball.com) and created a template called Toppost. I then tried to insert the include command you gave me in the Forumhome file, but nothing showed up. I changed the "something.php" to toppost.php of course, but nothing, not even a bit of code showing through.
I really like the paintball home page, as it has everything I want to include in mine. But......
I was thinking in totally the wrong terms. I started looking around my server at the php files and realized what I have to do. I was thinking I had to do this through the template files that are in the admin section. My bad. All straight now.

i.e. for me
Code:

$num_active = 10;
$num_chars = 90;
$db=mysql_connect($servername,$dbusername,$dbpassword);
mysql_select_db($dbname);
$querylatest="select * from thread where forumid='1' or forumid='2' or forumid='3' or forumid='4' or forumid='5' or forumid='6' or forumid='7' or forumid='8' or forumid='9' or forumid='10' or forumid='11' or forumid='12' or forumid='13' or forumid='14' or forumid='15' or forumid='16' or forumid='17' or forumid='18' or forumid='19' or forumid='20' or forumid='22' or forumid='23' or forumid='25' or forumid='26' or forumid='27' or forumid='28' or forumid='29' or forumid='30' or forumid='31' or forumid='32' or forumid='34' or forumid='35' or forumid='36' or forumid='37' or forumid='38' order by lastpost desc limit $num_active";
$resultlatest = mysql_query($querylatest,$db);
print("<center><table width=\"100%%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\">");
while ($latest_array = mysql_fetch_array($resultlatest)) {
// Get Forum Infomation
$query_forum = "select * from forum where forumid='$latest_array[forumid]'";
$result_forum = mysql_query($query_forum,$db);
$forum_info_array = mysql_fetch_array($result_forum);
printf("<tr><td colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#87A4C2\"><b><font color=\"#000000\" size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\">%s: %s</font></b></td></tr>",$forum_info_array["title"],$latest_array["title"]);
// split the date up a bit
$datestr1 = substr($latest_array["dateline"],0,10);
$datetime = substr($latest_array["dateline"],11,8);
printf ("<tr valign=\"top\"><td width=\"15%%\" bgcolor=\"#B9B9B9\"><font face=\"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"1\"><b>%s</b><br>Updated: %s<br>Replies: %s</font></td>", $latest_array["postusername"], $datetime, $latest_array["replycount"]);
$querythread="select * from post where threadid='$latest_array[threadid]' order by dateline asc limit 1";
$result_thread_text= mysql_query($querythread,$db);
$result_thread_array = mysql_fetch_array($result_thread_text);
printf ("<td width=\"85%%\" bgcolor=\"#cccccc\"><font face=\"Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"1\"><img src=\"/forums/images/icons/icon%s.gif\">?Last Post By: %s<hr>%s...<br><a href=\"/forums/showthread.php?threadid=%s\">Click here for more</font></td></tr>",$result_thread_array["iconid"],$latest_array["lastposter"],substr(strip_tags($result_thread_array["pagetext"]),0,$num_chars),$latest_array["threadid"]);
printf ("<tr><td colspan=\"2\" width=\"100%%\">?</td></tr>");
}
printf ("</table></center>");
?>
the part where is shows
forumid='1' or forumid='2' etc... it tells which forums to show... so leaving it out, hides the private forums
If I run the above script I get this error
Warning: 0 is not a MySQL result index in /www/tuffsports/forum/test1.php3 on line 15
I keep will keep playing around but any guidence is appreciated.
