Well, if you mean how would you put a meassage in the block, you would add all text to the variable $content. The BLOCK mechanism in nuke automatically displays what is in $content. So, a simple 'Hello World' example would be

Code:

<?


if (eregi("block-Sample_Block.php",$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) {


    Header("Location: index.php");


    die();


}


$content = "Hello World";


?>

Goodness, I was hoping it wasn't going to be me that said it, but that should read:

Code:

<?


if (eregi("block-Sample_Block.php", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])) {


    Header("Location: index.php");


    die();


}


$content = "Hello World";


?>

Please note that both ways will work, the way I describe merely involks the latest security patch method.

Oh, don't forget to save that file as: block-Sample_Block.php
once you are finished editing it.
