Virtual War (Vwar)

[Amay_Zing]

Hi

I use Vwar for my clans war arrangements etc.  I have just installed the latest version of it and I am aware that there are php files in the extra directory which will put up a war coundown clock as well as others such as next wars sign up info etc etc.  Does anyone use this because I need to know how I create a block so that this info can be displayed.

Did you try using a phpbox block and including it?

this is one of the php files in the extra directory called nextactions.php

What would I do with it?

[IchBin]

If you create a phpbox then put this code in it, it will display that information.

Code Select Expand

include('/path/to/nextactions.php');

Good Job IchBin

Thats got something up but I put in the absolute path in the nextactions.php now I get this error

Warning: main(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/www/war/includes/functions_common.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/showno/:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php:/tmp) in /home/showno/public_html/extra/nextactions.php on line 52

Warning: main(/www/war/includes/functions_common.php): failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/showno/public_html/extra/nextactions.php on line 52

What have I done wrong

[IchBin]

I think that is your host limiting PHP for security reasons. You could try an HTML article instead with an iframe that links to the php script. That might work.

[Amay_Zing]

Thanks IchBin  so what is the code to do this?

[IchBin]

Something like this: You can add scrolling/border and extra features to the iframe. But I don't remember the code for that.  A google search will find you all that you need.

Code Select Expand

<iframe src="path/to/vwarfile.php"></iframe>

[Moocat]

scrolling=no for no scrolling (scrolling is on by default)...
border=no for no border (border is on by default)
height=### for height
width=### for width

e.g.

<iframe src="/path/afwefw.php" scrolling=no border=no height=600 width=800></iframe>
