What are my inbox options?

I am in the process of ridding my site of the "Main Menu" and "User Menu" blocks. I am in the beginning stages of implementing a DHTML drop down menu that I am quite pleased with. My problem is that I NEED the user menu because it is the only way my site users can tell if they have new PM's.

What are my options on PM notification?

You could use this code in a php block. It shows if a user has a new pm:

global $xoopsUser;
if( $xoopsUser )
{
  $pm_handler =& xoops_gethandler('privmessage');
  $criteria = new CriteriaCompo(new Criteria('read_msg', 0));
  $criteria->add(new Criteria('to_userid', $xoopsUser->getVar('uid')));
  $pm = $pm_handler->getCount($criteria);
}

if( $pm )
{
  echo "/xoop/html/viewpmsg.php" title="Read your new Private Messages">Private Messages($pm)n";
}
else
{
  echo "No new Private Messagesn";

Nope, didn't work. No text is showing either way in a Custom PHP Block.

Thanks for the start tho.

I do not know PHP well, so how can I color the text to make it stand out a bit more?
