[RESOLVED] PHP RSS parser, wont display anything
this is for my site:
http://staticfx.com/forums/bb3portal.php
on the left side, it says Gametab.. but there should be links appearing below it
in my bb3portal.php file I have this:
the rss_gametab.php has this:PHP Code:include($phpbb_root_path . 'bb3portal/block/rss_gametab.'.$phpEx);
then in my rss_gametab.html i have this:PHP Code:<?php
/*
*
* @name rss_gametab.php
* @package phpBB3 Portal a.k.a canverPortal
* @version $Id: rss_gametab.html,v 1.0 2007/04/01 20:35:47 staticFX Exp $
