I know it would be a big task and I don't know how big your work force is, you would need to pull in resources to help.

But this would help make your site a bigger resource and also be a bigger crowed puller.

I know it's a big task but something to bear in mind.

well to be honest the idea of trying to create a glossary that would be big enough to rival Webster's online dictionary is a pretty daunting task, what is it now, about 2 million words in the English language?

thanks for the idea tho'

Jose

Why use some one else's service, when you could create your own dictionary, theres a module called glossaire/glossary it might be worth a try, now fair enough thats a lot of data input, but another good reason to keep and bring people onto your site.

Just a thought.

if you want a modul then please try the links below my signature.

Is there a more recent one perhaps?


Nope, that's the latest. BTW, you can always check for yourself at the oneline cvs viewer at sourceforge:

ahh,

not so much for that purpose. I have a budding elearning site and I wanted to give my english students a convenient little block where they could type in unknown words and get results in a pop-up window or something.

but thanks anyway.

I haven't seen any myself...

I do use a script - it requires an M$ office product to be installed on your computer...but you can spell check any form input (like forums). If you are interested in it...lemme know.

PS - no wise cracks from anyone like, "I've read your posts, Why don't you use the damn thing then!"

has anyone ever seen a module that taps into the numerous online dictionaries to provide word meaning lookups; Dictionaries like Websters online, or the cia factbook?

I could probably cobble something together myself, but I thought I'd check to see if soemthing was already around.

appears
that a call to user.php is what shows just prior...
hmmm I wonder if (the problem)is in there?
and then
viewtopic.php..

I do have that code you listed at the top of viewtopic.php.(or around line 32).

Thanks for your reply I think I'm getting somewhere...
I did not create users when I reinstalled a couple a months ago...I stopped the reinstall there and just used from db.

Immediately after logging in (and just prior to the error message), what is the URL in the browser? Is it something like yoursite.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php with no additional arguments?

If it flashes by too quickly, try extending the time before redirect (modules/newbb/viewtopic.php):

Quote:

if ( empty($forum) ) {
redirect_header('index.php',2,_MD_ERRORFORUM);
exit();


Change the '2' to 5 or 10, temporarily. Or alternatively, turn of 'meta refresh' in your browser.

One last thing: does your copy of moduels/newbb/viewtopic.php contain this line (near the top):

Quote:

$forum = isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['forum']) ? intval($HTTP_GET_VARS['forum']) : 0;

Anyone have a fix for this?

I cant seem to figure it out with php debugging on. (remote server)

Error forum not selected, is really keeping my users from enjoying the convenience of loggin on to a forum immeditely.


Thanks!
