Copy and paste the PHP for expire_date not working,

[eug2]

I copied from one page and paste to another PHP code for the expire_date to show up but it is only showing me,  Expire Date: ;

 the code is; 

";
if ($evnt_cat[$ct] !="yes"){
echo "
<font class='smallg' >".$msg['expire_date_d'].": </font>
<font class='smallr' >$expire_date;</font>
";

 

it is working well on the original page but not on the what I copied to.

Please help, I appreciate your ideas very much,,

You can't simply copy and paste stuff from place, put it somewhere else, and expect it to work.

On that note you can't simply modify PHP code without knowing any PHP and expect that to work either.

 

Forget the code you have now. What is the code for the rest of the file and what are you trying to change about it?

Thank you a lot for solving my little problem with the PHP,

I am sorry for the trouble here, I can not delete my post.

Can it be done somehow?

please.

first off, that... is a scary chunk of code there.

 

second, the variable `$evnt_cat` has not been declared before you attempt to use it and since your server has error_reporting turned off, you could not see the error it wanted to throw.

 

the page you took that bit of PHP from (source document) was set up to allow you to use the part of code you had (the 'snippet' of code). the document you're attempting to paste that snippet into (destination document) has not been set up the same way. unfortunately, what you're trying to do is not possible without rewriting a large part if not all of the destination document.

Hi, I copied and pasted from the same file the ID num,, for the ad, it is working ok.

also, I copied the visit count and pasted , it is working ok too, precisely for every ad,

I do not see a reason this expire_date  would not work, I know I just missed something there,, maybe echo some wrap,,

Anyways thanks a lot..

[ebk]

Neither of those two values being displayed depend on $evnt_cat existing prior to you using something.

 

It is not going to work as you currently have it. Check in the source document for prior locations of $evnt_cat and note how they are used. Copy those segments over to the destination document as well. I cannot guarantee that this will work and highly doubt it will anyways. It is, however, a thing you could do if you wanted to try something.
