Not exactly. In the area where you put the "insert html here" I needed to plug in some more php scripting, specificly the news posting script that comes with Threads that I hacked. Unfortunately the news posting script requires main.inc.php, and requiring it twice in the same script (after cutting and pasting it into the basic page that you posted) was causing problems.
So, I just used the <? tag to go back into "php mode" in the area that you designated for html. No big deal, cause it's just a test page that I'm hacking on. The end result was the test page that I linked two a few posts ago. I can always go back and clean up the tags in the final script.
Later I'll turn the code that you gave me into two php includes and call them on every page on my web site that needs them (like a server side include). I just have to remember to remove any duplicate require statements.
I was looking at the IIP scripting today and noticed how you are authenticating users. Is that all that is needed to get the info for the status and login pal that you wrote?
Thanks!
