Need help with Block/Module
Hi,
I'm trying to create a block to display a weights and balances calculator found here
http://www.dmjwilliams.co.uk/gbsep_weight_balance.htm
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and where to start.
I want to be able to use it in the same way as on that site.
Many Thanks
Schmitt
Best option would be to use the block or moule creator
http://phpnuke-uk.net/modules.php?name=PHP-Nuke_Tools
Thanks Dar63. Do I need to create 2 files to get this working?

Am I right in saying that the main piece of script would be the module itself and be called index.php and that both of these files need to be changed to php script? What would I do with the top piece of script (where would it go)?
I am still trying to learn the structure around creating a working block or module and appreciate any advice or step by step guide people can offer.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Schmitt
To be honest I never took much notice on the page you linked and I can't actually get it to load at the moment but I'm assuming there is a d/load which includes the scripts for all this to run and possibly an install instruction?
If so I'd really need to see how it normally incorporates into a webpage before I can really answer. how you'd make it a nuke module.
So I'll keep trying page you linked until I can find out more.
That'd be great, thanks Dar63.
Schmitt
Sh-it, forgot about this I'll take a look tommorow.
LOL
Cheers Dar.
Well I've tried getting that calculator to function both as a phpnuke module and a normal html file and I've had no success.
Either there's something missing (ie: files) or I'm a complete numpty.
Sorreee.
ok. ntw, thanks spending the time on it
Congrats on the 10 million page views. You've got the best support site on the net.
Schmitt
grrr I've just sat here for 15 minutes trying to get it to work too...
It refuses to calculate!!
Make sure when you try it Schmitt that you chage the bit that says;
src="http://www.yoursite.com/crosshair.gif"
url('http://www.yoursite.com/your_envelope_image.gif');
And actually have the envelope.gif and crosshair.gif hosted on your site.
You will also need this file:
http://www.dmjwilliams.co.uk/script/weightbalance.js
you probably did all that anyway so I'll shurrup!Holy crap I got it to work!!!
PM me your email and I'll send the file to you
Details sent through in PM.
Many Thanks to you both. I'll let you know how i get on with the install.
As I said before -- this site provides best the best nuke support on the net.
Schmitt
Hi Vision,

Schmitt
