Thanks guys for the code -- works great on 6.1.0.3.
For the gent asking about the caching in 6.1.0.3 I run my board with caching off. But, i tested the Ubbnews with caching turned on. I don't get any display issues, but the topics of the day do not seem to refresh properly within the ssi included shtml page. -- probably adding a random number somewhere in the meta tags would do it. Also, i might have my tags to set up to refresh once a day or so..
Also, im probably not the best guinea pig, as i hacked up the ubbnews extensively. Changed the tables around alot, added a different date format, enabled graphics, added backgrounds, etc etc...
you can check it out though if ya want to see if your display problems are similar to mine @
