Banners isn't working

I can't add a client to my banners page. I think when I hit the submit button, it takes me to /admin.php?op=BannersAdmin#top.
Do I have to edit admin.php and change the link on [Submit] so that it adds?
Could anyone help me?
Thanks,
Manoj

What version are you using? Using the latest Patched files? http://www.nukeresources.com

Um....I was using 7.7 yesterday, and the banner clients worked perfectly (even though I didn't have any at the time.)
Then I downloaded phpnuke7.8 and just ran the upgrade7.7to7.8.php file....was there anything else I was supposed to do????
Thanks,
Manoj

7.8 introduces a new Advertising system. The problem is that it still looking for the old banners stuff

Delete all the banners files in the/admin directory
admin/case/case.banners.php
admin/links/links.banners.php
admin/modules/banners.php

I have the same problem when trying to add a banner client. I just upgraded to 7.7

when you hit submit it takes you here:

admin.php?op=BannersAdmin#top

I have the same problem with 7.8, only after the upgrade, the advertising module does not show anywhere in admin. When I look at the modules directory on the server, it is there. It just will not show on the nuke site.

I have NEVER seen this before! Shocked

Same problem here.

I had 7.9 with 3.1 patches and all my google adsense banners where working fine. I installed 3.2 patches and no more banners working there. I has something to do with the code in the mainfile.php for "function ads($position)". I copy paste the code for that function from 3.1 to 3.2 patch and it worked fine again!

There is a filter on HTML code that needs to be removed

Code:

$ad_code = filter($row2['ad_code'], "nohtml");

Thanks, Evaders! Where can I find that code that needs to be removed? - Will this take care of the problem I am having with the Module not showing up on the site?

#UPDATE# - I have checked the modules table in the database and the Module was never added to the database table. I manually added it and now it appears in the modules block on the left of the page. When I click on it, it works fine - for a guest to the site. I upgraded the site to 7.9 thinking it would fix things on the admin side, but it did not. (The site is still under construction, so I was not concerned with breaking it...)

Well, it appears to be working now. This was strange!

I am haveing trouble with ad's using javascript/html code, what was happening was some of the code was showing in the block instead of the ad,

i have removed that line of code you suggested now the code has stopped showing, but the ad still isnt working, the block doesnt resize to the ad size, so its just not recieving any information at all now

I am using nuke 7.9 patched 3.2

My blocks are diplaying the ads fine. When setting up a banner, you need to put the image size into the banner setup now. I am also finding out that the banner code for the top banner needs to ben changed in the theme that I am using.

Don't remove the line - remove the check_html function around it.
