Okay, I'm finishing my last mod to JM's hack. It will FTP the active topics to another server located anywhere, which can then be used as an include on your homepage. Or anywhere else for that matter. The reason I looked at Active topics 1.8 in the first place. I've got a regular website to run, but I'll try to address your current problems and requests quickly. I'll also need someone to volunteer to test this on a unix machine, as we only have NTs and 2000s at work. I have a linux machine at home, but I've tweaked the hell out of it, so it's not a good trial. I also want to whip up documentation for this. One last try to light the fire under JM: I will give credit to you, however, I noticed that the majority of what you've done was to copy the original code from UBB 6, plug it into it's own cgi and then destroy the existing get_daily routine. A lot of my work has been undoing yours. For those of you who anticipate this "hacked hack" please be patient. I've got 15 pages (600 posts) of bugs, praises, failures and curses to read over. I'd like to not make the same mistakes as my predecessor.
