Forum Block code help

[betts02]

A coder has made a mod for a widget using the following code

ob_start(); 


//  %d 
$show_count = 5; 

$query = sprintf("SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."event WHERE visible = 1 AND (dateline_from > '%d' || (  dateline_from > '%d' AND dateline_to < '%d' )) ORDER BY dateline_from ASC LIMIT %d",TIMENOW,TIMENOW,TIMENOW,$show_count); 

$event_get = vB::$db->query_read($query); 

$output_bits = ''; 
while($event = vB::$db->fetch_array($event_get)) { 

     if($event['dateline_to'] == 0 ) 
     { 
         $format = sprintf("On %s",date('jS M Y',$event['dateline_from'])); 
     } else { 
         $format = sprintf("From %s to %s",date('jS M Y',$event['dateline_from']),date('jS M Y',$event['dateline_to'])); 
     } 
      
     $output_bits .= sprintf(' 
        <div class = "cms_widget_post_bit"><h4 class="cms_widget_post_header"><a href="calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=%d">%s</a></h4> 
            <p class="cms_widget_post_content">%s</p> 
        </div> 
        ',$event['eventid'],$event['title'],$format); 

} 
$output = $output_bits; 

ob_end_clean();

Can someone please help me in getting this to work for a forum block ?

cheers in advance
