How can i insert php in theme.php? If i insert something like:
<?php
echo "test";
?>
it's not displayed, but if i look into the source of the page, it is there like above.
Leave out the php tags. For more details post what you are trying to accomplish.
If so, it displays as text
echo "test";
I want to insert an rssfeed using rss2html. It works on other page with php or html extension, but not working in coppermine.
I observed that it depends where I insert the code. I want to be inserted in
"// HTML template for the image rating box" section, but if I put the php code after EOT of this section it is displayed but not where I want to.
I've used rss2html with coppermine a long time ago. IRC I inserted the code into template.html.
I was displaying an image generated by rss2html so just had to include an img src tag but it's quite simple to add any element of the feed to template.html
You can't use php in template.html. You can add php into your theme.php but you need to know how to write valid php. The way you are trying to do it is not valid. Post the exact code you need to insert.
Nibbler,
With rss2html you don't really need php, that was my point. It generates a page from it's own script and you just display elements of that. In my case it generated a weather graphic depending on location and that graphic was just displayed within template.html.
Hope this makes my reasoning clearer. I'm not too good at explaining things sometimes.
Sorry to add another post.
Here is a better explanation of how it works.

If anyone will be able to help me with the test code, I'll manage with any other php code.
Do as Nibbler suggested:

the section between center tag is my code. It could be very well: echo "please show";
$XMLFILE = "http://stiri.myweb.ro/e107_plugins/rss_menu/rss.php?1.1";
