Can I use webadverts with the forum? I have the program installed and working but when I use an SSI <!--#include virtual="/ads/button.pl?iframe"--> it just doesn't show up. I can view the program on other html pages so I know its working.

thanks.

Unfortunately it is not possible to directly include SSI calls inside Gossamer Forum templates - SSI parsing is generally an either-or proposition - you can either have normal HTML pages with SSI, or you can serve pages via CGI/mod_perl.

That said, from the include you are using, it looks like the SSI call may be adding an <iframe> onto the page - one possibility you could attempt is to add an <iframe> into the template yourself, with the iframe source pointing to the advertisement page.
