Hy all,

first of all I want to thank you that you read my post and are willing to help me .

I´m trying to make an block for my clan site where I'm in the need of the uid of the current user.
My problem is that the block is an "system_block_dummy" that includes an php from an vwar app (nextactions.php).

I not sure how to get the uid of the current user, i tried to get the cookie but seams like cookie is somehow reseted cause I get now data from it.
Later i tried to get it with "$xoopsUser->getVar" but seems somehow that object $xoopsUser doesent exist. If included mainfile and common.php but didnt realy help.

Think Im doing something completly wrong.

i'm not sure about in blocks.. but in files, if you want to use $xoopsUser then it has to be globally declared before you use it.

global $xoopsUser;

Well, yes I forgott to mention.

If I open the script from outside a block as normal site, it works fine as I can use all vars in $GPC and function $xoopsUser works.

It just doesent work in the block.

For example simple script.
<?php
print_r
($_COOKIE);
?>

Opened from outside I works fine an prints hole array, starting with Array ( [forum_read] =>

Same script form whithin the block.
Array ( )
