Custom Block Problems

Hi All

I am trying to create a custom block for the top centre of my website.

I have followed some tutorials here but have tied myself up in knots TBH .. Crying or Very sad

I am trying to create a server status block. I have one on my site at www.es-uk.co.uk on the left. If you click the link at the bottom of the block it takes you to a php file called serverliste.

Now what I want to do is to create a block for the top of my homepage to show what the serverliste.php file shows which is a list of my servers.

I really am a noob at this and desperatly need help as the help files tie me up in knots. I initially tried ..

Quote:

ob_start();
include("rvsslwebphp/serverliste.php");
$output = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$content = $output;

Then I tried ..

Quote:

<?php

if (eregi("block-serverlist.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
Header("Location: index.php");
die();
}

ob_start();
include("rvsslwebphp/serverliste.php");
$output = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$content = $output;

?>

With a few variations to each but all I get is THERE IS NO CONTENT FOR THIS BLOCK ... Rolling Eyes

Thx In Advance For Any Help .. Wink
