need help with error - error

[digit]

I have a problem when I place the forum in maintenance mode, or when the forum throws out an error.  I KNOW where it's happening...   with a mod of mine.

When in maintenance mode, (or in the case of an error) nothing appears on any page below where I am calling an ssi function.... in index.template.php

ssi_chatOnline();

here is...  ssi_chatOnline();

Code Select Expand


function ssi_chatOnline($output_method = 'echo')
{
global $db_prefix, $scripturl, $txt;

$users = array();
$userIDs = array();
$result = db_query("SELECT userID
FROM ${db_prefix}ajaxchat_online WHERE NOW() <= DATE_ADD(dateTime, interval 2 MINUTE)
", __FILE__, __LINE__);
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
array_push($userIDs, $row['userID']);
}
mysql_free_result($result);

$users['IDs'] = array_unique($userIDs);
$users['links'] = array();
if (count($users['IDs']) > 0){
$query = "SELECT mem.ID_MEMBER, mem.realName, mem.ID_GROUP, mg.onlineColor, mg.ID_GROUP
FROM {$db_prefix}members AS mem
LEFT JOIN {$db_prefix}membergroups AS mg ON
(mg.ID_GROUP = IF(mem.ID_GROUP = 0, mem.ID_POST_GROUP, mem.ID_GROUP))WHERE ";
foreach ($users['IDs'] as $ID)
$query .= 'ID_MEMBER = '. $ID . ' OR ';
//remove the last OR
$query = substr($query, 0, strlen($query)-3);

$result = db_query($query, __FILE__, __LINE__);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$link = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['ID_MEMBER'];
if($row['onlineColor'] != ""){
$link.= '" style="color: ' . $row['onlineColor'];
}
$link.= '" target="luyf">' . $row['realName'] . '</a>';
    array_push($users['links'], $link);
}
mysql_free_result($result);
}
if ($output_method != 'echo')
return $users;
else{
if (count($users['links']) == 0 )
  echo '<center><a href="http://www.mysite.com/chat/index.php"><font color="#FF0000">Our Chat - Now Open To Bronze, Silver &amp; Gold Members!</font></a> -  <a href="http://www.mysite.com/chat/index.php">Enter Chat Room</a></center>';
elseif (count($users['links']) == 1 )
  echo 'There is 1' . $txt['chat_aUser']. ' ', implode($users['links']) , ' - <a href="http://www.mysite.com/chat/index.php">Enter Chat Room</a>';
else
  echo count($users['links']). $txt['chat_users']. ' ', implode(', ', $users['links']);
}
}

If someone could tell me why this is crashing the rest of the page, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

What is the error ? i take it that your error is in your logs ?

Nothing showing up in the logs....   just everything is blank starting with that ssi call and below.....   If I remove that ssi call the page displays fine.

This problem only occurs when I put the forum in maintenance mode, or in case of a forum error. (none of the error text is being displayed)

So somewhere in that ssi function is crashing the rest of the page.

Thanks.

Might be in your best interest to post the Q's at their respected mod section .....

if you are getting a blank page, check your server error log for the error.
