Function Redeclared

Could we possibly get the function file_get_contents_an wrapped in a conditional like function make_seed by default please?
This became a problem using the archive hack for vB 3.0.x by zenon after upgrading to 374.

ie.:

if (!function_exists('file_get_contents_an')) {
    function file_get_contents_an($url) {
        ...code...
    }


}

PHP:

Thanks

 

Yeah Google shows 16,800 pages for file_get_contents_an
ie:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare file_get_contents_an() (previously declared
in /home/lakecs/public_html/forums/ad_network_226.php:5) in ...

 

Right, but apparantly other software uses the exact same name file_get_contents_an for some function ? Maybe rename the function?

 

Actually, I have no idea but it's not a php function... so do you think all those people are including the ad network code more than once?

 

Sorry, the people who have these pages.

 

I suppose you could wrap the entire script in

if (!defined ('_DP_AD_NET_')) {
      define ('_DP_AD_NET_', 'hi there');
      ...
}

PHP:

if you wanted to... but then again who knows why they would be including it more than once.

 

It's a flaw of the SEO archive by Zenon apparently. It calls global.php thus includes the ad_network.php in the php_include_first template, then we have to call it in the footer of the archive. Include_once didn't work and not including it in the footer, although it seems to have been included already, does not display ads.

I have dealt with it quick and dirty, but did not have the desire to work it too hard last night. I can live with my fix for now, but I agree, I need to find out how NOT in have it include twice.

Thanks
