Javascript problems

[videogamesaver]

Hi all,

Some help if possible!!

I run phpBB3 on my forum and was looking to add some content units based in Java, but when I try to add them to my site they won't work, I just get some random characters displayed.

Any ideas how to resolve??

Many thanks!!

What script are you trying to add, and where are you trying to add it?

Can you show a demo of the broken code?

I'm looking at your forum now mate
EDIT: theres nothing wrong with the site.

Your on a phpbb hosting company..
I don't think you can add scripts

Your title says Javascript but your post talks about Java - which is it? :?

Hi,

It's Javascript, the following code is the type that won't display.

<!-- BEGIN EASYCONTENTUNITS.COM CODE -->
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.easycontentunits.com/js_unit.php?ecu_mid=77&ecu_uid=573">/* Unit: Sample */</script>
<!-- END EASYCONTENTUNITS.COM CODE -->

Hope that helps -!-

Thanks

Hmm, your code worked for me.

Example:

Where were you trying to paste it? If you are trying to put it in a forum description you need to make it a BBCode and use that, as phpBB3 doesn't support HTML / JavaScrpt in Forum Descs.

I was posting it in a new topic form, but didn't work, I tried switching the editor mode too but to no evail.

I have used HTML in my posts for some time now without a problem, it's just javascript.

Can you give me an idea where I could find a tool for converting Javascript to BB code??

 

[Dj-Whitey]

phpbb3 doesn't allow HTML for security reasons. PHPBB 2 did.

Have you tried making it a BBCode and using that in your post?

That should work. It works for Google Ads at least.

How do I convert Javascript to BBcode though???

 

[CyberFreak]

Go into your acp ----> Posting ---> bbcodes -----> new

Then in the first box make a bbcode like

Then in the html replacement box enter the html/JavaScript code above then submit it then where ever you post the bbcode you made it will show the html.

I did that from memory so that might be slightly wrong but that is near enough what you need to do. If you get stuck post here and i will give you proper instructions -lol-

Will do Fowler.
