In some circumstances you may want to add a banner network to phpAdsNew. Some
banner networks rely on cache busters in order to work correctly. A cache buster
is a random string of digits which must be unique in every call to the banner
network. In the next example the # must be replaced with unique number everytime
the banner is shown.
http://servedby.advertising.com/site=12345/size=468060/bnum=########/bins=1/rich=0
If you add this banner network to phpAdsNew you must use 'Banner refered through
URL' and replace the random number with the following string {random:x} and
replace x with the number of digits you want to have. For example:
http://servedby.advertising.com/site=12345/size=468060/bnum={random:8}/bins=1/rich=0
If you need to add the same random number to both the image and the target
url you can simply specify the same {random:x} code in both the image and target
url. phpAdsNew will make sure the string {random:x} is replaced with the same
number in both cases.
Maybe. Let us know what you want...
This is a known bug in IE 4 and higher. phpAdsNew 1.9 does have a workaround
for this bug, but it only works in remote invocation with JavaScript and local
mode. Normal remote invocation is still affected by this bug. Microsoft is aware
of this bug for some time and IE 6 apparently works fine. If you use normal
remote invocation there is nothing we can do about it.
HTML banners are only supported if you use remote invocation with JavaScript of local mode. It is not possible to display HTML banner with normal remote invocation.
Make sure you have enabled magic_quotes_gpc in your PHP configuration.
Make sure $phpAds_url_prefix in config.inc.php is exactly the same as it is
on the server (http://www.test.com/phpads is not the same as http://www.test.com/phpAds).
Also make sure it doesn't end with a slash (/).
Your PHP is not configured for MySQL support. If you're on Unix, you need to recompile PHP --with-mysql. If you're on Windows, you have to enable the MySQL DLL in your PHP configuration. See the manual, installation section, for more details.
