Help: Iframe, Content, Html in block

Worker Joined: Feb 06, 2004 Posts: 147

I am trying to put some headlines of the french section of BBC news in a block. I attempted to hack the existing BBC news block with no success.
The URL for that page is http://www.bbc.co.uk/french/. It looks to me that the structure of the titles on that URL does not allow a block that automatically displays the current headlines.

I am willing to use iframe and contents to add manually some of the headlines.

Quote:

if( eregi( "block-News-BBCFRENCH.php", $PHP_SELF ) )
{
Header( "Location: index.php" );
die( );
}

global $currentlang;

$rf = file_get_contents("http://www.bbc.co.uk/french/", "rb");
$grab = eregi( "<a name=\"startcontent\"></a>(.*)BURKINA:", $rf, $printing );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "<a name=\"startcontent\"></a>", "<TABLE WIDTH=\"100%\" CELLPADDING=\"0\" CELLSPACING=\"0\"><TR><TD VALIGN=\"TOP\" WIDTH=\"1\" ALIGN=\"LEFT\">&&</TD><TD ALIGN=\"LEFT\" WIDTH=\"100%\">", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "</div>", "</TD></TR></TABLE>", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "<span class=\"h2\">", "", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "<a href=\"", "<A target=_blank HREF=\"http://news.bbc.co.uk", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "/low/", "/hi/", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "</span>", "", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "<br>", "", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "<hr>", "", $printing[ 1 ] );
$printing[ 1 ] = str_replace( "<p>", "", $printing[ 1 ] );

$content = $printing[ 1 ]."<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http://www.bbc.co.uk/french/\" target=\"_blank\"><img border=\"0\" src=\"images/blocks/bbcnews.gif\"></a></p>";

?>

My iframe attempt which does not display well.

<?php

Code:

if (eregi("block-Search.php", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {


    Header("Location: index.php");


    die();


}





$content  .= "<iframe src=\"http://www.bbc.co.uk/french/\" name=\"Faso\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" align=\"top\" width=\"143\" height=\"275\">";


$content  .= " . \</iframe>";


$content  .= "<center><a href=\"http://www.bbc.co.uk/french/highlights/story/2004/12/041221_miss_pog_bedre.shtml\" target=_blank>Burkina</a></center>";
