i am trying to make a front page for my site that says how many members newest member, ect

kind like the Statistic hack but with PHP?

How would i do this???

I am very very new at PHP

never mind Used SSI to do it

SSI? how? I mean, what's the code you place in

yeah how?

http://www.ppn.f2s.com/stats.phps

done, Memember count, Last Member, Number of Forums, Number of Topics and Number of Posts. If you need something else added just ask.

yeah, what about who is online, ubbnews, maybe statisitcs ?

nice work

To include SSI in PHP docs.

example for UBBNews:
include ("http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/forum/ubbnews.cgi?ns_id=1");
?>

Example for WOL:
include ("http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/forum/ubb_whos_online_ssi.cgi");
?>

etc.

hmm, the board doesn't allow php tags to be posted...

OK, where ever I have oko, REPLACE that with php.

ok, thx, but I get an error (I'm a beginner on php )

Warning: Failed opening 'http://www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/forum/ubbnews.cgi?ns_id=1' for inclusion (include_path='') in ....(my path)...line 2

Line 2 is exactly the line where my URL to the ubbnews file is, but when I try this URL in the browser it works, can u help me ?

and another thing,
in wich folder goes the shtml file (cgi-bin?)?

lol, so am I.

I don't know whats wrong, a link to the page could be helpful. Also,

What do you mean? If your including it through php then you don't need any shtml files.

yeah, of course, was a little confused

It should be the path, not the URL

Ie. D:/UBB/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi and not http://www.lkubb.dns2go.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

When I include this I get this error:

Warning: Failed opening 'G:/Eigene Programme/Xitami2/cgi-bin/ubbnews.cgi?ns_id=1' for inclusion (include_path='') in G:/Eigene Programme/Xitami2/webpages/who_is_online.php on line 2

Thats funny, because using the URL works just fine for me...
