This is the code that I received from Paypal, I want the button to appear in the header page of my forum - the same as it does in http://www.austech.info/

S**T, Thats heaps better but, doesn't it take up so much screen space that to be able to see the forum you would have to scroll or page down ????

or

Is the screen what appears after you press the donations button ?

It is another page by itself, like the button you click that brings you to paypal, this brings palpay to your site instead. If you want I can make a simple version of it now.

Next you add link to navbar template

Code:

                <td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="http://calga.cci.net.au/forum/paypal.php" accesskey="5">Donate</a></td>

Last, edit php file to work with your paypal link. Add your email and replace what is red with your email.

Code:

<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'PAYPAL'); // change this depending on your filename

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array(

);

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array(

);

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
    'PAYPAL',
);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(

);

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

$navbits = array();
$navbits[$parent] = '';

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);

$paypal = "<iframe width=100% height=590 frameborder=1 src =\"https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=[COLOR="Red"]richard[/COLOR]%40[COLOR="Red"]cci[/COLOR]%2e[COLOR="Red"]net[/COLOR]%2e[COLOR="Red"]au[/COLOR]&no_shipping=0&no_note=1&tax=0&currency_code=CAD&charset=UTF%2d8\"><a href=\"https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_xclick&business=[COLOR="Red"]richard[/COLOR]%40[COLOR="Red"]cci[/COLOR]%2e[COLOR="Red"]net[/COLOR]%2e[COLOR="Red"]au[/COLOR]&no_shipping=0&no_note=1&tax=0&currency_code=CAD&charset=UTF%2d8\" target=\"_blank\">Donate to support this site</a></iframe>";

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('PAYPAL') . '");');


?>

The .php file gets uploaded after edits are made to forum/paypal
Edit .php file below with your email.

*EDIT*
Ok, I just added your email to the .php file to make it work with out you needing to edited.

Ok

Done the first part, adding new template, got stuck finding the navbar template. assuming I find it, should your line of code be added at the top, bottom or inserted into the existing code. (This is assuming the navbar template has existing code)

Trying hard to follow instructions .......

**Jose Amaral Rego** · Thu 29 Dec '05, 8:38pm

Where do you want to see the link? Like my site it is on the second created navbar, do you want yours Donation link to be first, middle or last?

**Nonoize** · Thu 29 Dec '05, 9:00pm

donations button

As your site is so different in presentation to mine I am not sure. My original intention was to just have it simple like the Austech site, with a donations button in the top right corner.

But you have shown me so many other posibilities I am now reliant on your advice as to what you consider 'best fit' for what I currently have at club25.

I assume that the code change between changing navbars would be a single declared variable?

This being the case Could you please supply info for applying the code to the top (1st) navbar.

Also

I am not sure what to do with your php attachment. I am running a W2K PC and being website hosted on a linux box so I have no tools to view the php contents.

Sorry to give you so much grief but I really am doing my best !

My apologies - terminology problem on my behalf -

The term 'navbar' meant a full navigation bar to me. Not a 'navicon' position within a single navigation bar.

Too many years working as an IBM disk recovery engineer - too used to standard terminology and nomenclature.

Sorry
