I am trying to figure out how to show my PHP pages that I create to a seperate database through DW (I know...). I cant seem to wrap with CJContent as it can not find the connection, I can use WF Section - but I can only link to a separate page instead of having the contents show inside the XOOPS framework. Is there a handy way of doing this, or is it even possible? Thanks.

Use the following include statements to wrap your pages, then hand code the link to them using a custom HTML block:

In the files you wish to "wrap":
<?php
include '../mainfile.php';
include 
XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/header.php';

//your php code here//

include XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/footer.php';
?>


Custom HTML Block:
<a href="http://yourdomain.com/subdir/file1.php" target="_self">Link 1</a><br />
<
a href="http://yourdomain.com/subdir/file2.php" target="_self">Link 2</a><br />
<
a href="http://yourdomain.com/subdir/file3.php" target="_self">Link 3</a>

Hope this helps.

That is very cool. I had a follow up question: If I just want to display the content that my PHP page produces in a block (rather than a link), can you suggest a way to do that?
