possible new look for my site, http://www.bewbs.com/V2/test/index.php?page=home

im still debating on wether or not to use it

if you get errors while viewing this site please let me know

I see on your site that you have a contact form.

So far I am trying to handle $_POST vars within {php}{/php}

It seems that forms do not 'post' correct to pages.

or the $_POST gets lost somehere in the compiling of pages.

What's your secret?

its no secret buster777 wrote a contact form for cms to use it simply use {contact_form email="Youremailaddress"}

Bewbs: I love the new (V2) look. It is really clean and stylish!
However if you're not going to use it, it would also be perfect as a CMS demo site

I havent looked in the code, but my guess is that smarty (or whatever is doing the {php} tags) is doing a call to eval(). Basicaly the php engine will trat eval() code as a wohle new page, not just an included one. This is the only way (that I know of) that php can dynamically load content and execute php portions of it (say from a database)...

My guess is that the limitation on that is that eval() doesnt get the full environment passed to it. Unless you found some other error (harder for me since there isnt code ) and solved this problem already.

Well, the real issue is that I'm parsing out the {php} tags, mostly for security sake. Anything that can be done in {php} tags should be able to be done with a user defined plugin, which can more strictly checked and controlled.

Firstly bewbs congrats on a very neat, clean looking site. It certainly works wel for me.

Re contact form the plug in one is fairly basic and I didn't like the need to have the need for a user to add a subject in there all the time. I prefer to have a set subject eg Enquiry Form to show as a Subject so I amended the plugin to change that and also added some check boxes and that works fine.

I'm totally confused. Looking at the source for this site - http://www.bewbs.com/V2/ - it doesn't appear to use phplayers or any automated menu system? How does it work? Does it really run from CMS? Very pretty.

It runs on CMSMS, he just chose to do his own menus instead of one of the automated ones.
