its a 404 because there is an extra space at the end of the url in the link...
you should be able to put html in your special forum message - but not js... have you tried?

Thanks, I just took out the extra space so the link works now.
I tried html for the basic areas that I could use but, to cover a different section, I can really only find PHP or JS code after extensive searching.
Option 1
This site covers about half of what I need and the code won't save in the special forum message....it deletes the majority of it upon saving...everything between the iframe if I remember correctly.

Option 2:
Covers more than half of what I need but half the code comes up only showing text and the other half actually executes but says flashplayer is not updated to a new enough version....which it is.

Option 3 which covers most of what I need is what I posted in the previous post and it will not save when updating the special message.
Even if I wanted to go the route of paying, most all use JS let alone hundreds of dollars a month for something a free substitute is just as good for.
Any idea's of how I can create a workaround or am I pretty much out of luck if I can't find basic html code? Much appreciated again. Everything else seems to be moving along pretty nicely now...just little areas like this of trying to add what the customer wants becoming very time consuming to find/add.
Well you can't run javascript or php code in this context. Javascript has to be a part of the generated source and be loaded to the browser. Php has to be interpreted on the server. The places you are trying to use these are saved as data to a database. They will get stripped by filters as a security measure against scripting attacks. The same is probably true of the iframe.
it is what the program hooks are for which can utilise any of these methods.

Thanks for the input.
After reviewing programs hooks, I'm uncertain if that would even work for me.
1st, I am uncertain which program hook would mimic the "special forum message" area above topics.
2nd, It is my understanding (and I could very well be wrong, hopefully I am) that program hooks are hard-wired code in the back-end which would mean that same code would be in each "special forum message." The problem I see is each subforum I have would have code that has 3-4 key letters constantly changing in the code, depending on which subforum it is on, as the code needs to be unique to the subforum topic. I'm going to have many subforum topics so that means each set of code is slightly different for each.
So, if I understand it correctly, program hooks would not do the trick. It would work great if it was one standard code but not a code that needs to be different for each subforum, right?
Sorry for all the questions...this is just a long work in progress for me before I can even launch this publicly and test it out.
Thanks,
MK
