kuroi:
Did you put your php inside php tags?
i feel a bit foolish but i'm not very good with php.. i can usually figure things out based on sample coding as i've been a programmer for 30 years.... but what you mean by inside php tags.. do mean the <?php ?> tags? here is the coding i used which didn't work..
$content .= '<?php include(tpl_text_link_ads.php); ?> and here is the php code that is in tpl_text_link_ads.php..
<?php
