Customized block contents not displaying

Hi,

I had created few customized blocks. I set it to appear by setting visible to "Yes" in Block Administration.

When I try to view the page, the block header shows up but not the block content..I tried with different themes and checked the code of themes. Every thing is fine..

I checked the database. The block content is saved there..

I also have given all the groups access to this block.

Has any one come across the same problem?

Thanks,
Ann

What type of block content is it? HTML or PHP?

hmmmm....
2 suggestions, I haven't tried either to see what happens, but....

1) did you select HTML as the content type?

2) In the custom blocks i've done, I have no <html> or <head> or <body> tags, did you enclose yours in them? all my content is in a table.

Hi Bassman,

I had selected HTML as the contenttype. And i put the content in <table> tags

for eg: this is the content

<table>

This is a test

</table>

The content body just wouldn't appear tho' the header of the customized block appears...

Thanks,
Ann

Ann, that's bizarre, because I just tried the same thing on my site and it worked. I doubt it makes any difference, but you could try selecting "Yes" in the "Update module template .html files from themes/your theme/templates directory?" in Preferences if it's not already.

ooops..soory.,..it is getting saved in the database fine..

It shows side, weight, visible, block_type, c_type, isactive for the new customized block as 5, 1, 1, C, H, 1 respectively..

I think the "'content' => $bcontent" portion in following in /htm/header.php is failing..

$xoopsTpl->append('xoops_ccblocks', array('title' => $block_arr[$i]->getVar('title'), 'content' => $bcontent));

I get the block title displayed but not the content...

Thanks

Ann
