Hi

I've set up my header in the path to custom header include, however it only shows up on the index page, it doesn't carry across to the other pages, like albums, ect.

here is my header.php

Code: [Select]

<?php

if ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'index.php' && empty($_GET['cat'])){

?>

<div align="center">
<table border="0" width="980" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" id="table1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td colspan="8">
<p align="center">
<img border="0" src="images/logo.jpg" width="980" height="150"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td bordercolor="#FFFFFF" bgcolor="#B4CDCD" align="center">
<p align="center"><b><font color="#FFFFFF">
<a href="forum/usercp.php">UserCP</a></font></b></td>
<td bordercolor="#FFFFFF" bgcolor="#B4CDCD" align="center">

</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="8">

</tr>
</table>

</table>
</div>

<?php
}


Any ideas how to fix this?

Remove the php code then.

THANKS!

I can see no point in adding static HTML into the custom header - why don't you just add the HTML code into themes/yourtheme/template.html?

Joachim

P.S. Your HTML code is not valid. I suggest validating it. If you don't want to do that, make sure to have disabled the vanity block.

Well isn't the point of putting static code in headers and footers is because you dont wanna change multiple files if you change one little bit of the header, so this way it carries on?

My question is I got a header.php and footer.php and they are correctly defined in the config menu. However I have an include for a poll on my footer.php and it doesn't come up on the gallery. Just says cannot connect to database.

How can I fix this?

Cheers

The include probably open another mysql connection, closing the one opened by coppermine. Impossible to say without knowing the code. Not related though - as suggested, you can't do everything with the custom header/footer include. Opening mysql db connections is one of the things you can't do.

yeeh could be why

hopefully the code can be changed? at the moment it is

Code: [Select]

<?php require '/home/freebord/public_html/poll/booth.php';
  newest_booth(); ?>
hope you can help

cheers

hope you can help

No, I can't, as I have no idea what happens in the file you include. Additionally, I'm reluctant to look into this - as suggested, it's your business to figure out what can be done using the custom header/footer and what can't be done. I'm not willing to look into third-party code.
