postbit addon help

I am trying to make an addon for my postbit, so i can show a popup for furthur info (maybe for an RPG), so the popup would appear with this url

http://www.boardurl.com/forums/membe...stbit&userid=1

i am the biggest php n00b alive, and i don't know what the hell i am really doing here, i have wrote this (which is probibly all a load of stupid gibberish)

PHP Code:

// ############################### start postbit addon ###############################
if ($action=="postbit") {
    $templatesused = "postbitadd,postbitaddbit";
    include("./global.php");

  $permissions=getpermissions();
  if (!$permissions[canview] or !$permissions[canviewmembers]) {
        show_nopermission();
  }


  if ($userid=="" and $username!="") {
    $username=urldecode($username);
    $user=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid FROM user WHERE username='".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($username))."'");
    $userid=$user[userid];
  }


  $userid = verifyid("user",$userid);

} 


tell me what the proper code for this would be, can't write anything after alchahol :speechless:

so you're trying to accomplish a popup? i think a few other ppl have been asking that... (guess its rpg competetion ) anyways... the best thing to use would be javascript... php can be used too... but it wouldn't have the same effects and you're not worrying so much about the postbit as you are the showthread... hope that helps somewhat...

thats the plan of it, i wanna use that php code for the page, but i am gonna use a javascript popup to bring it up, from there it should be easy to make
