Hi Predator (or any core devs),
I would also like to add my support to jctsup1's request on getting this bug fixed for IIS based systems. I run Windows 2003 with IIS 6 and also get the same "ERROR: Forum not selected!" error, in the same cirsumstances as discribed in the thread above that jctsup1 linked to.
This bug is both common to only IIS and it is replicable, and I really think it would be great to give this bug the flick.
The "ERROR: Forum not selected!" text is located on line 95 of the main.php file in the language\english directory of the NewBB module, and is defined as _MD_ERRORFORUM .
This _MD_ERRORFORUM is then found in a total 8 files which are:
1) newbb\delete.php on line 42
2) newbb\edit.php on line 37
3) newbb\newtopic.php on line 38
4) newbb\post.php on line 38
5) newbb\reply.php on line 37
6) newbb\viewforum.php on line 36
7) newbb\viewtopic.php on line 36
8) newbb\language\english\main.php on line 95
I'm no coder but I would put my money on their being a bug between XOOPS and IIS somewhere in files listed above as 6 or 7. In particular I think the $HTTP_GET_VARS variable at the top of viewtopic.php is not being set, or being set incorrectly for whatever reason.
This is about as far as my skills of being able to track back PHP goes, and from here will need a real PHP coder to find out why this is happening.
*EDIT*
--------
Sorry for hijacking your thread Predator, but this has been an ongoing bug that I've been unable to squash since I started using XOOPS over a year ago. Finding somone savvy with the NewBB code is a rare treat, and I couldn't help myself but throw the topic up, especially after it jctsup brought it up. I'll move the contents of this post to the bug report section.
