thanks, but I must not of made myself clear, sorry. In your configuration, you allow for attachments at FULL Display, not as a link but actually display the attachment. Works great with a picture, not with PDF is that a better explanation. Thanks for all your help and the hack.

This is very near a review system ! How difficult will it be to make it possible to review these articles?

OK, still trying to figure out the script error that IE8 and IE6 report when viewing individual articles.

I reverted all the article templates, and even put the copyright back in thinking that might even change something.

I have tried each version of article.php that has been posted here for others fixes in this thread.

I also uploaded the xml posted here with the last article.php attached to one of the posts in this thread.

I did notice that when I uploaded the last xml, that I had to revert three article templates,..and interestingly the compare feature in admincp suggested I had v1.7 templates installed. I thought I was running of the v1.8 pack.

Anyway, still no luck.

Am I the only one with this issue?

I'm about to release version which fixes javascript issue. I have also changed the php code which redirects forumdisplay to articles, so hopefully that will work for you.

I'm not sure what you mean...
You could change the phrases words from article to review

I've found cause of the issue, it was to do with duplicate javascript code with needed to be removed. I'll release version shortly with this included.

(The template version refers to with which version they were last edited with - not all templates are edited between versions.)

Edit: if you meant the number at the bottom of the articles.php copyright, that is just due to me forgetting to editing the template.
