"hey yea the reason for this is i mean theres no ue if having ppl view a white bg list of topics you know well thats whayt i though its meant for ssi!"
You're not making any sense lad =)
Most use the SSI output as a 'brief' summary of what's new on the forums and in no way as a replacement for 'Active Topics' itself.
Believe it or not you want the full active topics display in the forum and the brief summary list via SSI.
At least with the old UBB5 version you could keep the normal Active Topics and just add the file so you could output any number of SSI streams and formats (more Active.cgi file copies) and not affect the main Active Topics display. This is why so few people have used it, I found my readers complained because you could only have one or the other – not both.
