Hi,

I'm not sure if you can help me with this one, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I've implemented a comment script in my site, but as soon as a comment is made, it interferes with CMS Builder. I'm pretty sure the reason this happens is the fact that the comment script adds something to the URL. For example: after someone places a comment, the URL changes from http://www.tennistube.tv/videos/federer-davydenko4.php to http://www.tennistube.tv/videos/federer-davydenko4.php#c5t_form. As soon as the URL changes, none of the CMS Builder content is displayed. Any suggestions?

EDIT:

My cms builder code:

<?php
require_once "/home/tennjon5/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

list($spotlightRecords, $spotlightMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'spotlight',
'limit' => '1',
));
?>

<?php
list($fpvideoRecords, $fpvideoMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'fpvideo',
'limit' => '5',
));
?>

So i played around a bit, and got the third party script to not add additional stuff to the URL. It doesn't make a difference though. Now I was wondering, is it possible that it has anything to do with the fact that a form is sent?

The comment script uses this code: $c5t_form = new HTML_QuickForm('form', 'POST', $c5t_form_action . '');

bump...

Sorry I don't mean to be pushy, but this a rather urgent issue. If anyone could help, it would really be appreciated!

Hi,

I've went to the address you posted and posted a test comment. However, I didn't see any issues with content being displayed.

Exactly what CSMB content is not appearing.

Let me know and we'll see what we can do.

Thanks.

Sorry, should have posted that in this thread :)

The CMS Builder content that doesn't show is the "In the spotlight" content in the upper right corner and the "related videos" on the right side of the comments. It shows at first, but as soon as a comment is posted, the content "disappears".

Okay, I see.

Could you attach the page "federer-davydenko4.php" and I'll take a look at it.

Thanks.

Hi,

I think what's happening is that a variable used by the comment script is the same as a field name in your tables (probably something like comment).

Try changing your code to this:
<?php
require_once "/home/tennjon5/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

list($spotlightRecords, $spotlightMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'spotlight',
'limit' => '1',
'allowSearch'=>0,
));
?>

<?php
list($fpvideoRecords, $fpvideoMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'fpvideo',
'limit' => '5',
'allowSearch'=>0,
));
?>

'allowSearch'=>0 will turn off CMSB's automatic searching for that query. This should get us around a variable conflict. Give it a try and let me know if it works.

Thanks.
