Hi
First want to say this has been my favorite info source for help in my php-nuke learning experience over the last few days, congrats to the Nuke Cops and thier members for providing a great place to help a guy out.

I have a question. I made a block for links to a certain section of our site and it is broken down into 4 sections. its a Race league and we have 4 divisions. Each Division is titled by some bold text to seperate. The text appears on the block but when you click on any of the links and the page changes, the text disappears. The links don't , just the text. I tried standard html as it asks for and also wrote one in notepad and to no avail. Any Idea? if you need to see the code I can do that too. Thanks a million.

if u use Nuke 6.5, change $PHP_SELF to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

Next. For the links, instead of seperating them over 2 lines, why not put them onto the same $content .= line (just don't close the quotes till after the tag)

Thanks a bunch AI

I made the changes as you posted however it still does it. One thing i found out was they don't actually disappear they just change color to match the background. If you highlight the block you can see they are there. Something in the Skin maybe? I am using the Enigma Skin. Not sure if there are reported errors with that one.
