OK I am working on a live flash chat room. But am having a problem with this one part. I know this is really easy so please help. Here is the code...

Code: Select all

<?php
    require_once('http://support.jbwebsitesolutions.com/FlashChat/inc/common.php');

    $id = 'flashchat';
    $params = array();

    $open = false;

    if($GLOBALS['fc_config']['liveSupportMode']) {
        $stmt = new Statement("SELECT * FROM {$GLOBALS['fc_config']['db']['pref']}connections WHERE userid IS NOT NULL");
        if($rs = $stmt->process()) {
            while($rec = $rs->next()) {
                if(ChatServer::userInRole($rec['userid'], ROLE_ADMIN)) {
                    $open = true;
                    break;
                }
            }
        }
    } 
?>

<?php if($open) { ?>onLoad="setFocus()" onUnload="doLogout()"<?php } ?>>


        <?php if($open) { ?>
<center>
<a href="http://support.jbwebsitesolutions.com/FlashChat/flashchat.php" target="_blank">
<img src="http://www.jbwebsitesolutions.com/Pictures/livechaton.gif" border="0" alt="Live Support Online"></a><br>
<br>
</center>
        <?php } else { ?>

</center>
        <?php } ?>

Ok, I am trying to change one part. I want this to be put onto an existing HTML page. If live chat is offline then display this picture. Like it is doing. If live chat is online then display this picture. I want the same code for the online as I have for offline except I want the name of the picture and link to change. The problem is it just displays both images in the HTML page. It is only supposed to display the current image. Please help I can't figure this out. But it I keep messing it all up. So please help me fix this problem. Thanks!!

Thats weird....

If it's showing both images, then I can only assume the php is not being parsed at all.....

Try putting all the php code in one block and using print statements to output everything. with just one php block, you should be able to track the flow of code a lot easier in and out of the conditional statements.....

To be honest, everything looks ok to me sematically, but like I said, it's almost like the PHP isnt being processed.

Here look at these pages...

Failed Example

Shows Both Images

PHP Version Does Something Different

I need the working example to be working in the html page i have above. I have no ideal why it does not work. I made it a php page incause that was the problem still it did not work. I am stuck. Also the pages above will not work in IE. Don't try it nothing will happen. Must use Firefox or Netscape.

The PHP source code is coming through in your .html version; quite simply, the PHP isn't being parsed.

If you add
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
to your .htaccess file, then that should cure that problem at least. Note - that's assuming that you're allowed overrides of this sort ... and that an alternative would be to do the same thing in your main Apache configuration file

JacobHaug · #5 Aug 30th, 2006, 13:59

I don't understand. It does not work in the PHP version either.

You said, "the PHP isn't being parsed" what do you mean i do not understand.

moojoo · #6 Aug 30th, 2006, 14:07

PHP is parsed to HTML or should be. if you can see the PHP code in the generated source something is wrong.

JacobHaug · #7 Aug 30th, 2006, 14:12

Ok cool!! That makes since. Now i do not have a .htaccess file like she said. Or at least i don't think i do. Where can i put this code.

Code: Select all


AddType application/x-httpd-php .html

Can i place this in the html file? Or should i place it somewhere else?

moojoo · #8 Aug 30th, 2006, 14:16

You just have to edit the .htaccess file and add that line. You can always make a new .htaccess file if needed.

JacobHaug · #10 Aug 30th, 2006, 15:09

OK guys & gals I am online please take a look and let me know what you think I should do to the code to make it work in the HTML page. Works in PHP just not HTML.

OK i found out what the problem is. Somewhere in my code i have not linked to the full URL. Because it is in a seprate dirctionary it should have a full URL link. But the problem is i do not see where i am missing this. Here is the code.

Code: Select all

<?php
    require_once('http://support.jbwebsitesolutions.com/FlashChat/inc/common.php');

    $id = 'flashchat';
    $params = array();

    $open = false;

    if($GLOBALS['fc_config']['liveSupportMode']) {
        $stmt = new Statement("SELECT * FROM {$GLOBALS['fc_config']['db']['pref']}connections WHERE userid IS NOT NULL");
        if($rs = $stmt->process()) {
            while($rec = $rs->next()) {
                if(ChatServer::userInRole($rec['userid'], ROLE_ADMIN)) {
                    $open = true;
                    break;
                }
            }
        }
    } 
?>


<?php if($open) { ?>onLoad="setFocus()" onUnload="doLogout()"<?php } ?>>

What do you guys think? What have i missed?

grahame · #12 Aug 30th, 2006, 18:11

Are you allowing remote access to require_once? There's a security issues about requiring files from other servers / with full URLs, and I would advise you to use a relatibe path not an http:// URL for this.

i.e
require_once("../Flashchat/inc/common.php");
(or with another ../ in the front if you're another directory down)

For further information about the remote access issues in require_once, see http://uk.php.net/manual/en/ref.file...llow-url-fopen

JacobHaug · #13 Aug 30th, 2006, 18:18

YOU ROCK GRAHAME!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Using a relative path worked great i would of never thought to do that. But it worked!! Thanks!!
