That is for Glacier but shouldn't be hard to adapt to about anything.

I had a big problem getting this to wok until I got the correct code for the sig file:

Code: Select all
<?php

$quotes = 'Random Text 01
Random Text 02
Random Text 03
Random Text 04
Random Text 05
Random Text 06';
$split_array = explode("\n", $quotes);
$rand_keys = array_rand($split_array, 1);

header("content-type: application/x-javascript");
echo "<!--\n
document.write('{$split_array[$rand_keys]}');\n
//-->";

?>

This is because the Javascript does not go through the parse_bbcode or parse_smilies functions. So they will just appear as plain text. Instead, you can use HTML within your javascript.
Watch out! I might do a code wheelie!

Spoiler:
NOOB Question:

When I create a dreamweaver php file it adds this.

Code: Select all
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
    <?php

    $quotes = 'Random Text 01
    Random Text 02
    Random Text 03
    Random Text 04
    Random Text 05
    Random Text 06';
    $split_array = explode("\n", $quotes);
    $rand_keys = array_rand($split_array, 1);

    header("content-type: application/x-javascript");
    echo "<!--\n
    document.write('{$split_array[$rand_keys]}');\n
    //-->";

    ?>
</body>
</html>


Is that right, also upload to root
.

Edit:
I created a file called 1.php with this code

Code: Select all
    <?php

    $quotes = 'Random Text 01
    Random Text 02
    Random Text 03
    Random Text 04
    Random Text 05
    Random Text 06';
    $split_array = explode("\n", $quotes);
    $rand_keys = array_rand($split_array, 1);

    header("content-type: application/x-javascript");
    echo "<!--\n
    document.write('{$split_array[$rand_keys]}');\n
    //-->";

    ?>


Nothing appeared but in firebug I get this:
Code: Select all
<br />
<b>Warning</b>: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/f/i/n/finsta2/html/1.php:1) in <b>/home/content/f/i/n/finsta2/html/1.php</b> on line <b>12</b><br />
<!--

document.write(' Random Text 05');

//-->

Hi There,

I would really love to be able to have the Changing Text Signature that you use, Highway of Life, but even though I have tried everything listed in this thread, I have been unable to get it to work. Just in case it helps, I am running Phpbb 3.04. Your help with this would be most appreciated!!
