FastForward, thanks for your tip rebgarding banner sizes. Although my Leader board is centered my 46 pixel banner is not. How come is that?

Check the footer:

I just wrap the code in <CENTER> tags. If your using iframes, maybe there's a tag that aligns the frame content... not sure. Sorry.

Its OK now. I changed it to Java and also centered. looks good now.

It's FREE!!! So, yes, it is definitly worth it! (and actually it is very good and would be worth it if it cost money!)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I swear I saw a remote invocation PHP code.

Are you referring to the code that I posted?

[ManagerJosh]

Yes I am.

There is a remove invocation XML code. More efficent than your suggested method

Glad I found this thread. I got phpadsnew working and placed my java invocation code in the header template banner is displayed BUT now I want it to display on the right side instead of the left side. Could you let me know where exactly in the code and what modification I should make to move it to the right. Thank you.

Yes, it's definitely worth it. It's an excellent program and very easy to use once you fiddle around with it. I've been using it for about 2 years now.

I always use remote invocation with javascript, generate the banner code and stick in directly into my page. It has a copy to clipboard option and everything.

The reports are excellent and you can let clients login to update their banners and view reports.

Put the code in the header template.

phpAdsNew is awesome.. Can't believe I was using something else. Thanks for the recommendation guys.

[Scott MacVicar]

Well I have to say its quite inefficient. You'll need to create a new database connection for each view of a page. So each page view is actually 3 database connections and then whatever extra queries it is for the two banners.

Someone really needs to write an integration into global.php for it, so it can use the vB db connection and fetch the two banners at the same time and assign them to variables.

[Overgrow]

Isn't that the case for any ad rotation software that doesn't have a vB integration?

[ManagerJosh]

You could always toggle the little feature "persistant connection" scott

[Mac Write]

It would be really usefule and cool if phpAdsNew could be intergrated into vb 3.1 and vContent, or at least a way to intergrate it from the adminCP, but still have phpAds as a seperate app.

[ManagerJosh]

Yeah it would be great...but then again imagine the headaches we will have when we are trying to upgrade phpadsnew..
