Latest Threads on Homepage

[Matthew_Benstead]

I've been trying to display the latest threads from my forums on my homepage but can't get it to work right. It will display them but the links are not clickable.

The code that I used was:

<script src="/forums/external.php?type=js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (i in threads)
{
document.writeln(threads[i].title + " (" + threads[i].poster + ")<br />");
}
//-->
</script>

This is using the vB3 external thing.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

try this:

<script src="/forums/external.php?type=js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (i in threads)
{
document.writeln("<a href=\"/forums/showthread.php?t=" + threads[i].threadid + "\">" . threads[i].title + "</a> (" + threads[i].poster + " )<br />" );
}
//-->
</script>

It gives me an error:

Line: 166
Char: 1
Error: '[string].threads' is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: http://mattsbabes.co.uk/

Line 166 is document.writeln("<a href=""\"/forums/showthread.php?t=" + threads[i].threadid + "\">" . threads[i].title + "</a> (" + threads[i].poster + " )<br />" );

Here are a few examples for the external feed on my site:

Hope that helps!

The code you use looks like what I have but yours works and mine don't.

sorry the code should be:

<script src="/forums/external.php?type=js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (i in threads)
{
document.writeln("<a href=\"/forums/showthread.php?t=" + threads[i].threadid + "\">" + threads[i].title + "</a> (" + threads[i].poster + " )<br />" );
}
//-->
</script>

i'm confusing the + form JS and the . for PHP

PC Freak, that works.

Thanks.
