Installation is remarkably easy. Joel, Having got an earlier version of phpAdsNew working effortlessly once before, when it was pre-configured into an auction package, I now find myself struggling to get the latest version running on an e-smith virtual domain web site. Can you or anyone else give me some pointers on how to do it on e-smith? Having set it up according to the book (in /ibays/southern/html/phpadsnew/, the code it wants me to use in 'local mode' is as follows, for php: <?php require(getenv('DOCUMENT_ROOT').'/phpAdsNew/phpadsnew.inc.php'); if (!isset($phpAds_context)) $phpAds_context = array(); $phpAds_id = view ('', 2, '_blank', '', '0', $phpAds_context); ?> and suggests this html in the slower 'remote mode': <a href='http://www.southerncarsales.co.uk/phpAdsNew/adclick.php?n=ac88577b' target='_blank'><img src='http://www.southerncarsales.co.uk/phpAdsNew/adview.php?clientid=2&amp;target=_blank&amp;n=ac88577b' border='0' alt=''></a> I have tried embedding both/either in my html header but neither works. I can embed PHP into HTML can't I?
