Another Google AdSense question...

Regular Joined: Nov 29, 2006 Posts: 64 Location: TN, USA

Hello all!
I've been trying to get some Google AdSense code to work in different blocks on my site, but all I end up with are collapsed blocks.
This changes if I place the code into one of the HTML header, footer, etc. "pages" of the theme (the banners, etc. show up, but this really messes up the site layout - LOL).
Not sure if it matters, but I'm using the 7.6 distro and Sentinel 2.5.03.
Can someone help a relative PHP noob?
This is a sample of the a block code:

Code:

<?php


if (eregi("block-google_image_lft.php",$PHP_SELF)) {


    Header("Location: index.php");


    die();


}


$content  =  "<scr ipt type=\"text/javascr ipt\"><!--";


$content  .= "google_ad_client = \"pub-8180455488922863\";";


$content  .= "google_ad_width = 120;";


$content  .= "google_ad_height = 600;";


$content  .= "google_ad_format = \"120x600_as\";";


$content  .= "google_ad_type = \"image\";";


$content  .= "//2006-12-14: vert_image_left";


$content  .= "google_ad_channel = \"5978443721\";";


$content  .= "google_color_border = \"CCCCCC\";";


$content  .= "google_color_bg = \"CCCCCC\";";


$content  .= "google_color_link = \"000000\";";


$content  .= "google_color_text = \"333333\";";


$content  .= "google_color_url = \"666666\";";


$content  .= "//--></scr ipt></p>";


$content  .= "<scr ipt type=\"text/javascript\"";


$content  .= "src=\"http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js\">";


$content  .= "</scr ipt>";


?>

Thanks in advance!

hitwalker,
Thank you for your reply.
No dice though; still a collapsed block. Crying or Very sad

What you mean with collapsed block ?

Posted: Mon Dec 18, 2006 11:14 am

Simply that.
A block on the left or right side of the page that has nothing showing in it, but has a title.
Here, let me PM you the address to my beta testing site so you can see what I mean.
PM sent.
