Alright, I have ads on all my pages but now it is not validating. It's an xhtml site with some php pages as well. I use a passthru.php to put the ads on the site. My passthru looks like this MATEY (pirate again) if (!function_exists('file_get_contents')) { function file_get_contents($url) { $handle = fopen($url, 'r'); $string = fread($handle, 4096000); fclose($handle); return $string; } } include ('ad_network.php'); echo preg_replace ("/<\/body>/i", '<DIV class="ads">'.'<a href="http://www.digitalpoint.com/tools/ad-network/?s=1905" rel="nofollow">Sponsored Ads</a>'.'>>' .$ad_network .'-<a href="http://www.elistingpros.com/">Real Estate News</a>'.'</div></body>', file_get_contents(str_replace ('../', '', $_REQUEST['file']))); PHP: I have the update ad_network.php file (// Last update: Mar 31, 2005 2:28 pm) And here is my error message. "Ads not found on http://www. myfloridahomesforsale .com/ Logout | Setup Instructions | Edit Account Settings Account not not yet activated. | Site failed automatic validation as of 2005-04-02 (make sure URL and site type is correct - if everything is correct, make a request in the forum for assistance)."
LOL. I'm pretty new at all this so I don't know how to describe this stuff too well. Most of my pages are static xhtml. I have some dynamic pages that are created through mySQL using PHP. I use a passthru.php to place the coop ads on all the pages so I don't have to do everypage manually. Does that clear it up for you? Or is it strange how I have my site set up? either way
I tried to validate and got this error: Ads not found on http://www.frameless-showers.com/ I go to that page manually and see the ads
At first, I thinking it was a problem with the Google API showing no returned results, but then realized that the site just wasn't validating at all (even with ads on the page).
Yeah, I got a new API key just to check, and still not validating. I can occassionally get it to validate, like every 20 clicks on the "Validate Site" link, but it gives me zero weight, and if I try to validate again it just goes back to "ads not live on www. mysite .com". I want to cry.
Weird, no changes to any files and I come back after eating dinner and now my site validates????? Not as much weight as I had before. Oh well at least it validated.
