Working properly now, allows you to use SSI to call this script on your main page, allowing users to check their PM's.

Download it Here
Follow the instructions.

Enjoy.

MM- Question for you. Im confused as to why you would want to do an SSI call seeing how the pm-message count code is already added to the Ultimate.cgi file:

#############################################

if ($privcount[0] == $privcount[1]){
if ($privcount[0] == 0) {
$pmdesc = "You have no private messages.";
}
if ($privcount[0] != 0) {
$pmdesc = "You have $privcount[0] new private message$ptadd.";
}
}

if ($privcount[0] != $privcount[1]){
if ($privcount[1] == 0) {
$pmdesc = "You have $privcount[0] private message$ptadd.";
}
if ($privcount[1] != 0) {
$pmdesc = "You have $privcount[0] private message$ptadd. $privcount[1] $pnadd new.";
}
#############################################

Does this code not do the same thing your pmssi.cgi file does except your calling it out in an SSI and placing it into a table for HTML ??

Could one just add require="Ultimate.cgi" statement to whatever file it is you want to (Unless it's stricty an HTML file) and call the $pmdesc string and have the status displayed that way ??

From a pure HTML stand point this works great, except what if your restricted to using only <-- exec// whatever whatever// --> statements, like NOT allowed to do Virtual File Includes - Like I am [Linked Image]

I'd really like to have this on a main (HTML) page somewhere but I can't because it's V.Inclde type statement. I guess I could always change the output to match what I need and call it as an exec some how. It's a realy nice addition though, I just wish I could use it the way it's intended.

Yes, but then it would need to process the whole Ultimate.cgi code, which is not the best way.
And you should be able to use exec cgi with this.

I'm most certainly interested in this once we put our new site up. Anyone have a working example of this someplace yet?

Mine shows, yet when I sent myself a test message, it didn't tell me on the front page that there was one. Is there any way of correcting this?

I'm having a heck of a time making an include for this with asp - I've just never had to call a run-time CGI before. Anyhow the Include just brings up the code - it doesn't actually run the file.

Now regardless I do have a change request to this script that would also minimize the load on a heavy-usage site, and since I know jack about CGI programming I will request some code-master to do it for me. If it could be configured to dumpt the html to a separate file it would fix both my problems, then I'll just AT (NT Chron) it every couple minutes.. any takers or suggestions?

I'm working on PM and Online SSI, but all my works are stop right now, b'cuz my new computer doesn't arrived yet (darn [Linked Image])
Anyway, my project is to make a side menu (left or right menu) that does this:
for members:
1. give a lot of links (such as profile, llost password, etc.)
2. shows how many pm does the user has.
3. shows information how many users are in the board.
4. Also if user is on the homepage (not the board) it'll tell in the hp in "who's online"
5. if there is a new msgs, it'll play "you've new messages" in wave format.
6. If I can do it, it also give a drop down menu for forum lists (like hop to)
7. I think that's all ^_^

for guests:
1. give guests menu (such as register, lost password, etc)
2. give a login field.
3. same features like in #3, 4 ,and 6

hummm, does anyone can help me to make this add-on?

That is going to be cool

you should also put karma in

like if a board has karma and when the user is logged in it will display how much karma they have it would be a nice feture but may be hard to put in

Hard to put in?

$Karma = $karmafield
if ($UserName eq 'logedin') {
&get_cookie;


that may get someone started on doing this.

Yea, I like the sound of this too... unfortunately, if you're still using UBB5.4X then prepare to feel abandoned. No offense intended to the people who work hard on these scripts, but some of us are only asking for a link that works... we only want to be able to appreciaete your hard work wink
