Modules: Tag Board in a Custom HTML Block

Hey everybody. This is both a contribution and a request.

I am providing a link to download a slightly modified version of the Tag Board by Josh Sherman @ http://www.bombthebox.com/

You can download the modified version from my site by clicking HERE. Some changes were made so that it runs decently out of a block.

Read the install file. In addition - change the background color or add a background pic on line 33 in Index.php and the color codes in tagboard.css. Also change the table widths in index.php to accommodate your theme.

This is NOT a module yet. I installed this by creating a custom HTML block and using an iframe to include the index.php file. Here's my code.

{html}
{IFRAME width="150" height="275" align="center" frameborder=0 marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://www.secondsquare.com/tagboard/index.php"}
{FRAME width="150" height="275" align="center" frameboard=0 marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" src="http://www.secondsquare.com/tagboard/index.php"}
{/IFRAME}
{HTML}

Change { and } to less than and greater than

One other issue - it is set up for flat file use because the mysql doesn't work correctly for some reason. The posts work - however, flood control is broken on lines 106-139 of post.php.

SO HERE's the request:

1. Feel free to download and use as is per the instructions above. But it would be great if someone could look at the SQL commands and figure out the what's wrong.

2. If someone's feeling really ambitious they might make this into a module. I just haven't learned enough PHP to do it.

Have fun!
