Hello Mikem and everyone here,

Just thought I'd pop in and thank you for your hard work at this site. Everyone seems to be doing an excellent job.

Also, we have adopted the fiBlack theme for Xbox Solution (very little modifications), and so far the members seem to like it, as do I.

Check us out (the site will only interest you if you're a gamer) at www.xboxsolution.com and if you have any comments please do let me know.

See ya around!

And hey mikem, how the heck are ya?

Jason

even though im no gamer but its a nice theme.

MurphDog · **yes -** 05-29-2003, 12:26 AM

very nice job on modifying that theme.

On a side note, did you hear that Halo 2 is gonna be on the PS2? I think that sucks. Not very exclusive, I'd say.

Nice job on the theme Jason!

I have a question for you. This might sound like a stupid question but i once was able to do this.. but i forgot how.

I see you have your own pages like "staff.php"
You were able to add the blocks and ect.

What is the code to do such a thing? Do you have any tips on how i could make my own php file or html file and be able to add my blocks/header/foot ???

Thanks alot!

Hey Murph,

Halo 2 will not be on PS2, however I'm sure it will be available for PC as will Halo (original). Perhaps you've been fooled by our enourmously successful April Fools Press Release indicating Halo 2's release on PS2. (We fooloed alot of people) - Thanks

Hey Godsfury,

There are quite a few ways to do this, the simplest way is to create a file in the root of the site with the following code:

Code:

<?php 
if (!isset($mainfile)) { include("mainfile.php"); } 
include("header.php"); 
OpenTable(); 
?>
<html>

PUT HTML CONTENT HERE

</html>
<?php 
CloseTable(); 
include("footer.php"); 
?>

This method is really only good if you have very few pages such as that, otherwise you'll need to use another method, which are also easy but at the moment I don't have an example code for you. Let me know if you need more help.

Oh yeah.... thanks Mtechnik!

Thanks guys

Jason,

Love the site. I am an avid Xbox'er (Gamertag:BoNeS) and am always looking for a good Xbox content site. In fact I considered starting one as all the ones I ran across I was not really into...until now. Great job! I run many Nuke sites so if you need any help over there at Xbox Solution let me know. One question: is your XBS Navigation block a custom block or a module type block?

BTW someone stole my name on your site! :wink: Tell them I will pay them to release my name.

::BoNeS::

MurphDog · **lol right -** 05-29-2003, 11:59 AM

true true, i didn't even pay attention to when that announcement was made. In fact I'm probably the only one in the office that saw that, silly me.

mikem · 05-29-2003, 01:56 PM

Hey long time no see Jason...Been wondering if you still were around. I've actually referred a few people to our site that are bigtime Xbox gamers...I'm sure it helped them :-)

Keep in touch.

mikem

Jason · 05-29-2003, 09:04 PM

Hey mikem... I've been around just been really really busy as of late (meaning the past 9 months or so :? ) But hopefully a bit more free time in the future will allow me to be even more active. Good to talk to you again!

BoNeS ..... Thanks for the offer of help on the site, I'll keep that in mind as I'm always up for free assistance! As for the login name 'BoNeS' at Xbox Solution, let me try and contact the owner via email, I'll let you know what happens. I was real creative with my gamertag, xboxsolution 8) add me to your friends list, we'll play sometime!

Later
