Error displaying stock quote details

New Member Joined: Oct 09, 2004 Posts: 4

I am running this on my PostNuke site running ver 0.750. When I open click on any specific stock symbol, I get the following error:

Quote:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: cookiedecode() in /home/bonneyc/public_html/modules/Stock_Quote/index.php on line 184

Anybody have any thoughts?

I really do appreciate the time that you have put into such an app and providing it for free to the public!

Thanks,

Have you configured these settings like this?

$isNuke = FALSE;
$isPNuke = TRUE;
$isStd = FALSE;

If so and you still have that error, then my guess is that they changed some code from .071 to .075. I no longer support PN because they were changing direction too much to suit me.

I do in fact have my settings configured as above. Since you don't support PN any longer, can you at least tell me if the cookiedecode() function was supposed to be a function that was provided by PN or was this a function that was provided by your script? I was going to tinker with it and see if I could get it running myself. It appears that all the function was supposed to be doing was getting the username of the person logged in.

Thanks for the help,

It was in PN originally. They may have just renamed it. And you are correct about the usage.

Raven,

If you want to update your script to work with PostNuke here is the fix.

Make the following change:

Code:

// Determine username from the system


if (!$isStd) {


   //cookiedecode($user);


   //Correct PostNuke function call for .75 and beyond.


   $username = pnUserGetVar('uname');


}

After I fixed did this and uploaded to my site everything works just fine now.

Thanks for the help and a great script!

This would be a complete change for all users Smile

. I have modified the script and will be issuing an update, with proper credit to you, of course Wink

Code:

// Determine username from the system


if (!$isStd) {


   if (function_exists('cookiedecode')) {


      cookiedecode($user);


      $username = $cookie[1];


   }


   // For PN .75 - Thanks to Eric Bonney!


   elseif (function_exists('pnUserGetVar')) $username = pnUserGetVar('uname');


}

I can see why you had to make this fix. My fix worked on my site because I was using only PN, however if another user tried that code on a non-PN site it wouldn't have worked.

Sorry, I didn't think beyond my issue. Smile

Thanks again for the help.

NP at all! I appreciate you taking the time to let me know - it only improves the script. I have modified my previous post as far as my comments, but not the code Wink

Was it working before you put the fix in? If so, then you have not installed the fix correctly. You could also download a fresh copy as the fix is in the download.

I no longer support PN at all. The only thing I can think of is that you haven't activated the block. If you have and it's not showing then I don't know. Sorry.
