"Today in History" block

[nikita]

Nice block - this one.... i just started using it on one of my new site... i use the Alienation Theme.. which is real cool.. :up: but this block breaks the page.. i mean the width.. we have inserted some code similar to the height code but it gives a scrollbar on the bottom and it looks weird... am using the bbc block now with javascript... it wud be better if we could use the sql table imported....

It is probably because of punctuation in the datafile. If you scroll down you will find the sentence that is causing it.  I just went into phpmyadmin and edited that story and it was fine.

Unfortunately, no.

It's probably a Safari bug... the rest of the blocks work fine...

However, I was able to echo in some table settings for the block

Code Select Expand

echo '<table width="100%" border="0"><tr><td>';
//the block code//
echo '</td></tr></table>';


And now it works fine in any position... thanks for looking into it though, I appreciate it.

so now, on what line should i insert this code? it's still overlapping on my other blocks.

import the sql file in the attached zip-file to your database. If you do not, it will give an database error.

Umm... what attached zip-file?

I am afraid the server move last year led to a number of attachments were lost. So until that zip is recovered again, I can't re-attach it.

[greenman]

oh.

well, can you upload it somewhere else and link to it please?

[bloc]

I just said I can't re-attach it. If I had it I would.

thanks.


I'm using this code outside of my SMF, in a custom php page, and I get the "No database selected" error.
How can I "select the database"?
sorry for my newbiness.
Do I need to have a password to select the db? Because I already forgot the user password..
