Ok
First off Ive looked at all Raven's topics about Java to PHP with no result Sad

I want to make a block to show Pictures of the day. Then when u click on it it opens another webpage. Or just shows a block in the middle with fullsize picture. (dont really care how it works as long as it does)
I dont know PHP very well so if someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.

I tried the Egallery and Coopermine or whatever lol but my Web host doest have the Magick files installed and they wont either Mad

Please please please help me im going nutz Exclamation

Here's the scipt I use in Java. Can this be converted to use in PHPNuke?

Code:

Thanks in advance,

I can promise you 100%, beyond a shadow of a doubt, if your script works stand alone, then if you wrap it in this code

Code:

<?
$content = <<<_JS_
// Your Script Here
_JS_;
?>

it will work. Make sure that you have no spaces after the _JS_ and _JS_; tags. Save the file in blocks/block-Your_Block.php. I have proven this over and over again. Just yesterday to Poncho.

Just in case you don't see the PM:

Hi,

I read your message here about wrapping a working java script code with the _JS_ tags you mentioned and when I try this, I get the following error: Parse error: parse error in /home/clan786/public_html/blocks/block-ImageDay.php on line 2. I was wondering if you could help me get this thing working? Here is how the code looks the way I have it setup:

Code:

<?
$content = <<<_JS_<script>
// This is it. Call this function from your page where you want the pic to appear.
function Pic_of_the_day(){
// Declare Local Variables
var dateobj = new Date();
var dayofthemonth;
var thumbs = new Array(31);
var pics = new Array(31);

// Image Thumbnails. usually 120x90 (case Matters!!)
thumbs[1]="ss/thumb1.jpg";
thumbs[2]="ss/thumb2.jpg";
thumbs[3]="ss/thumb3.jpg";

pics[29]="ss/large29.jpg";
pics[30]="ss/large30.jpg";
pics[31]="ss/large31.jpg";

// get the date
dayofthemonth = dateobj.getDate();
// Do it!!
document.write('<a href="',pics[dayofthemonth],'" target="_blank"><img src="',thumbs[dayofthemonth],'" width="89" height="52" border="0"></a>');
}
// Done hiding -->

//then its executed here
<script>Pic_of_the_day();</script>
_JS_;

As I said, you cannot have ANYTHING after the _JS_ tag and you have the script tag

Code:

$content = <<<_JS_<script>

Change it to

Code:

$content = <<<_JS_
<script>

Hi Guys,
Raven I am not sure whether you'd be able to help me but I am struggling with trying to get Google's Adsense code on to my site.

Here is what I have gone from Google.

Code:

Now after reading the thread I have come up with the following code

Code:

<?
$content = <<<_JS_
<script>
<script type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
_JS_;
?>

Not being a programmer or anything like that I am not really sure what I am doing wrong.

Thanks
Cheers
Darren

bLaDe,

I have not tested your code, but assuming your code works outside of PHP, then that WHEREDOC syntax should work, ASSUMING, you definitely have nothing but a carriage return after the _JS_ and _JS_; tags. Also, this has to be in a block file, not the inline block from the administration page.

Thank you dezina for pointing me to this thread.

Raven I have been trying to use java script in my php but could not and it gave me lots a problem and you seems to be the one who can help. I would really appriciate if you could help me out too Very Happy

I created a menu using xara webstyle and after saving my menu I have 1 .html file and 2 .js files along with all the graphics. The html file has the following code and ofcourse the other 2 .js files are full of with java code.

Code:

What I am trying to understand here from your example is that if I should just create a file name block-SideMenu.php and copy all the java code from both of the .js files into this block-SideMenu.php file between the tags of _JS_ and _JS_; or do I just copy the code from .html file into my block-SideMenu.php file?

In any case do where do I need to store my .js files thats if I have to? Shold they be in /blocks folder or some where else?

I would really appriciate it plz help.

Thank you.
