HTML in block

How do I use HTML code in a block? I'm using PHP-Nuke 6.5.

Read the BLOCKS instruction file in your nuke distribution for explanation.

Thanks, but when I do that, here's what shows up on my site

Quote:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /var/www/clawz.com/philcloverweb/philcloverweb.clawz.com/nuke/blocks/block-Counter.php on line 20

Here's the code:

Code:

<?php

if (eregi("block-Sample_Block.php",$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}

$content = "<script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript" src="http://pub24.bravenet.com/counter/code.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584&groupnum=24&cpv=1"> </script>

alt="Bravenet.com" border="0" /></a>
</noscript>";

?>

The filename is block-Counter.php. How can I fix this problem?

You have placed JS code in the middle of PHP code, plus you did not assign the code to the $contents variable. Look at the blocks/block-Sample_Block.php file. A simple way to introduce html/js code into PHP can be found in this link. Don't worry about reading all the discussion in the thread, all were fixed by following my original instructions to the letter. http://nukecops.com/postt2548.html

So, would the file look like this?

Code:

<?php

/************************************************************************/
/* PHP-NUKE: Web Portal System */
/* =========================== */
/* */
/* Copyright (c) 2002 by Francisco Burzi */

/* it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by */
/* the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License. */
/************************************************************************/

if (eregi("block-Sample_Block.php",$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}
$messageText = 'Hello World';

$content = <<<_JSCODE_
<script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript" src="http://pub24.bravenet.com/counter/code.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584&groupnum=24&cpv=1"> </script>
<noscript>
<a href="http://counter24.bravenet.com/index.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584&cpv=1"
target="_top"><img src="http://counter24.bravenet.com/counter.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584"
alt="Bravenet.com" border="0" /></a>
</noscript>
_JSCODE

?>

No, you're missing a few things.

Code:

$content = <<<_JSCODE_
<script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript" src="http://pub24.bravenet.com/counter/code.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584&groupnum=24&cpv=1"> </script>
<noscript>
<a href="http://counter24.bravenet.com/index.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584&cpv=1"
target="_top"><img src="http://counter24.bravenet.com/counter.php?id=357484&usernum=2020326584"
alt="Bravenet.com" border="0" /></a>
</noscript>
_JSCODE_;

Then, you have assigned a PHP variable $messageText but you don't reference it anywhere. I suggest you get a book on beginning PHP and MySQL (you'll need it soon, I'm sure Wink

). Also consult the PHP on-line documentation at php.net.

I plan on learning PHP and MySQL soon. It is pretty useful.
