Hi,
I searched and checked FAQ's and couldn't find an answer.
here is my problem.
I create a custom block and insert the following code
Quote:

include 'http://www.everythingfunny.com/links/my_links.php';
?>

When I go to view the page with the new block, the block appears empty / blank.
I can go to the php page individually it works and shows the content.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, im banging my head against the wall over here.

if it's a custom block, then select php for the block type.. and then remove the php tags..

ie.

so it looks like:

 <font size="1" face="Verdana"> 
include 'http://www.everythingfunny.com/links/my_links.php'; 
font>

I went and tried that, and still get the same blank block. I also tried to do an iframe to get around this, and it comes up blank that way as well. I'm stumped.

hmmm, well i'm not quite sure what you're trying to achieve.

http://www.everythingfunny.com/links/my_links.php if u put that link into a browser the results don't look promising tho.

I have a link trade script I am trying to implement, and I want to call the php script page into a block.
So, I was/am trying to use a php include of that page into the block.
When you click http://www.everythingfunny.com/links/my_links.php , I want what you see there, to show up in a custom block, and I don't understand why when I do a php include of that file from the block, the block is showing up empty.
Thanks...

That was it, dunno why I didn't think about it.
So to get it to work, I changed content type to php script and put the following code
Quote:

include 'links/my_links.php';

and that worked.
Now to edit the script itself so I can get it to appear the way I would like.
Thanks m0nty for you help!
