    I have been part of the network for about a week and everything was fine, and today i get an email that my site is no longer displaying ads.

    I checked and it most certainly is displaying them, and when i do re-validate, it says that it isnt displaying them.

    Can someone please help.

    it says the homepage is not showing, but when i load the page in the browser it looks just like it did yesterday, which was showing the ads and it was validated before.

    If you give your site URL, maybe someone could look at it.

    As I read this thread I think of the Dr. Phil line, "Hows that working for you?"

    As everyone keeps telling you, you are going to have to post URl for someone to help.

    Good luck.

    Ok,
    I figured out what the problem was, but perhaps someone here can suggest a work around. I was running both Digital point ads as well as Yourcan Ads on the same page so my php looked like:

    <?php
    ini_set ("include_path", ini_get ("include_path") . ':../:../../:../../../:../../../../');
    include ('ad_network_183.php');
    echo $ad_network[0];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_network[1];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_network[2];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_network[3];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_network[4];

    echo "<br>";
    include ('yourcan.php');
    echo $ad_display[0];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_display[1];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_display[2];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_display[3];
    echo " ";
    echo $ad_display[4];

    ?>

    So when i loaded the page it did show up correctly, 5 entries in 1 row for digital point, a carriage return, and 5 more listings in a row from yourcan.

    But it wouldnt validate with Digital Point. When i remove the yourcan code, it validates fine.

    fyi, yourcan validates either way, with our without digitalpoint, so for some reason digital point doesnt like yourcan.

    Has anyone gotten both services to work on the same site and validate?

    Thanks-

    What a time waster!

    1) read the damn FAQ and ToS
    2) post the damn URL as per the sticky!
