Thread: Adding Linxad php code to phpLD directory

I am trying to add linxad php code to the sidebar of my phpLD directory here
Mortgage Corner | World Wide Mortgage Directory

The code looks like this

PHP Code:

<?php
print @file_get_contents('http://api.linxad.com/links.php?website_key=TKKgPdUAecJTWbCy&request_uri='.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].'&referer='.$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].'&user_agent='.$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
?>

I put the code on the right sidebar of my directory above (under "Partner Sites") but the code checker of my linxad account couldn't detect it.

I looked for similar problems in the forum and found this thread
Adding txtlinkads php code to index page only ? - PHP Link Directory Forum

I followed the instructions there and what I did was trying to put the tags {php} and {/php} around the code but it still didn't work.

Also I put the {literal}{/literal} tags around it (because I am using a smarty template as it is with the problem in the thread above) so it looks like this:

PHP Code:

{literal}
{php}
<?php
print @file_get_contents('http://api.linxad.com/links.php?website_key=TKKgPdUAecJTWbCy&request_uri='.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].'&referer='.$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].'&user_agent='.$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
?>
{/php}
{/literal}

...and still didn't work.

What am I doing wrong?

Hey try this, for a smarty template you don't need the standard php open and closing tags :

PHP Code:

{php}
print @file_get_contents('http://api.linxad.com/links.php?website_key=TKKgPdUAecJTWbCy&request_uri='.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].'&referer='.$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].'&user_agent='.$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
{/php} 


Thanks for the reply.

I just tried it but the code checker still can't detect it....
