so what's wrong with this code...my link does not show up.. just a blank page.

<?php
include(dirname(__FILE__)."/mainfile.php");
include(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/header.php");
?>
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com"test</a>
<?php
include(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/footer.php");
?>

what about getting an image to show as the link. this is what the code looks like and the image resides in the Xoops1 directory.

<?php
include(dirname(__FILE__)."/mainfile.php");
include(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/header.php");
?>
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com"><img src="42project.jpg"></a>
<?php
include(XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/footer.php");
?>

I get a blank page.

Where is your mainfile in respect to the file with that content?
If it is in the same directory use:
include("mainfile.php");
or
echo dirname(__FILE__)."/mainfile.php";

If it is in the parent directory use
include("../mainfile.php");

If it is two directories down use
include("../../mainfile.php");


For optimal readability of your posts, after selecting the code, push on the code button ( <> ).

maybe I worded that wrong.

I just want a picture to show in the main frame of xoops and for that picture to be a link.

right now it just shows the header and footer but no pic.

And the picture is in the same directory as the PHP file? If not, use an absolute URL or relative path to it.

Reply to: Longrifle

If all else fails, you should always backup the original files, before editing them, so that in case something does not work the way it should, you can always just replace the modified files.

Usually this fixes the problems.

It worked for me, when I had to edit some files to make new template work.

Thank you very much.
