I think I am using the wrong tag format for a php script which I have never used before. Can someone provide a simple edit to this hack so I can see how it is done? There is no such thing as stupid questions. Just stupid answers.

It's actually quite easy, you just have to keep some things in mind.

Instead of

Code

<font color="#FFFFFF">

You need to have it as:

Code

<font color="#FFFFFF">

Beginning of each line has to be:

Code

echo "

End of each line:

Code

";

Example from UGN Security

Code

echo "<a name="$topicnum"></a>";
echo "<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="95%" class="content">";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width="50%" colspan="2"><b>$title</b></td>";
echo "<td width="50%" colspan="2">";
$morepath = $CGIURL . "/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=" . $forum . ";t=" . $topicnum;
echo "<p align="right"><b><a href="$morepath">Read More...</a></b></td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width="100%" class="spacer" colspan="4"><hr></td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width="100%" colspan="4">";
print($postdet);
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width="100%" class="spacer" colspan="4"><hr></td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width="33%">Posted by ";
print("<a href="$authorurl">$author</a> at $postdate $posttime");
echo "</td>";
echo "<td width="33%" colspan="2">";
echo "<p align="center"><a href="http://www.undergroundnews.com/#top">Return to Top</a></td>";
echo "<td width="33%">";
$commentpath = $CGIURL . "/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=reply;f=" . $forum . ";t=" . $topicnum;
echo "<p align="right"><a href="$commentpath">Comments ($comment_count)</a></td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</table>

";

If you include breaks in your table code you'll want to remove them from the line:

Code

        echo "

";

Any questions just post 'em.
