I figured it out:

I put this
<img src=”<?php gravatar(“”, 20) ?>” alt=”” />

below this line:
<img class=”collapseicon” src=”<?=get_settings(“siteurl”)?>/wp-content/plugins/briansthreadedcomments.php?openedthreadimage=true” onclick=’collapseThread(“div-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>”)’ />

above this line:
<?php comment_author_link() ?></cite> Says:

Skippy – Thanks so much!
I hope this helps someone else!

I cannot find that loop within the comments file. I even did a “find” on it.

<i>somewhere inside<i>

Heh. That’s the problem. There is so much going on in the comments.php file for threaded comments that I cannot figure out what it takes. The if’s and else’s are more than my brain can figure out! ??

Does the example use threaded comments, too? Thanks for posting it!

This is kinda strange…

My IE defaults to not maximized. When I entered your site, I max’d the window so I could see everything. I looked around, but when I hit back on the browser, it resized my window too! I’ve never had that happen before.

Hmm. In order to associate a name with the image, I think you’d have to do something like I did:

https://www.stealtheblinds.net/2005/05/13/stbquote
(This only outputs one image)

My php skills aren’t that great, but maybe I can combine the two plugins somehow…?

Glad you like it ??
If you have any suggestions, let me know!

ColdForged, if you’re around — I got it! I did TWO explodes. I needed to explode by line, and then on the pipes.

Thanks for telling me about var_dump — it helped a lot!

hehe – Thank you.
I will look at it some more tonight and see if I can figure it out. Right now, I have to go take a few finals.

Thanks again!

Oh! It says NULL. (Honestly, I didn’t understand what the var_dump was doing before)

array_rand(): First argument has to be an array

But I suppose the NULL explains that. I guess I don’t have my file defined right…?

Ah. Okay. I moved them within the function. Now, it’s getting closer because it outputs the title, but I still get this error:

First argument has to be an array

I tried removing the var dump and adding the 1 back in and it didn’t help. Does this mean there is a problem with my txt file?

Hmm

When I do that, it only prints this:
array(0) { }

That’s it.

This is what the whole thing looks like right now:

$quotetitle=”Words of Wisdom”;
$quotefile=”quotes.txt”;

$dir=dirname($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’]);
$url=dirname($_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]);

function STBquote() {
if (file_exists($dir.”/”.$quotefile))
$quote=file($dir.”/”.$quotefile);
var_dump($quote);
$rand_key=array_rand($quote);
list($text, $author, $link, $linktext) = explode(“|”, trim($quote[$rand_key]));

echo “<div>”;
echo “<h2>”.$quotetitle.”</h2>”;
if (isset($text) && $text!=””) { echo “<p class=\”pullquote\”>”.$text.””; }
if (isset($author) && $author!=””) { echo “”.$author.””; }
if (isset($link) && $link!=”” && isset($linktext) && $linktext!=””) { echo ““.$linktext.”“; }
echo “</div>”;
}

?>

Ideas? I really appreciate your help!

Sorry. I’m so new I don’t even know what’s important!

$quotefile=”quotes.txt”;
$dir=dirname($_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_FILENAME’]);
$url=dirname($_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]);

if (file_exists($dir.”/”.$quotefile))
$quote=file($dir.”/”.$quotefile);

And yes, the file has data in it.

Thanks!

Also, I’m confused about the header image call part that I’m supposed to put in the header. Why can’t I call my header image in each css like this:

#header {
background: url(‘category4.jpg’) no-repeat bottom;
height: 185px;
margin: 0 auto;
width:700px;
padding:0;

That’s how I call my header image now…
Thanks!

We can use the is_category( ) tag

Does anybody know what that would look like instead?
