I had the ‘Ban IP’ mod installed, but have since redesigned my site and removed the login from inc_top and moved it to it’s own file, I keep getting an error when calling the mod. Everything seems to be working fine without the ban ip code added to inc_top, but when I add it I get an error on this line ‘Call banIP()’. I think it must be something to do with me removing the login and navigation info, but I don’t know what??? I have tried moving it around a bit, but it hasn’t helped - can anyone help me get this working again, please :o)
Many thanks
Ra1ney

And you're missing the most important piece of information. What is the error???

Oop! Sorry Davio 
If I add the ban IP code I get this error when I try to view any page:
Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D)
Type mismatch: 'banIP'
/interactive/inc_top.asp, line 78
Line 78 is: Call banIP()

It means you are missing the BanIP() subroutine that should be in the inc_top.asp file.

Line 78 is the Call banIP(). There are only 2 inclusions indicated in the Ban IP mod for inc_top, I have included both but this error is what I get  . That's why I wondered if playing around with the rest of my inc_top has caused this because there didn't seem to be a problem before. In the original ban IP inc_top file, the first piece of code goes on line 78 (the same as in my file), the rest of the code goes in just underneath the forum navigation. I have removed my forum nav and used the code elsewhere, so I have simply put the second piece of Ban IP code at the bottom of my inc_top, but clearly it's not working. Should the code be in with the forum navigation code instead?? I have tried putting it at the bottom of my forum nav, but it still doesn't work, any other suggestions?
Thanks

The error means it cannot find it. Yes, it's Calling the Banip() sub, but it can't find it.
Post a link to a txt version of your inc_top.asp file and I'll take a look at it.

Thanks Davio!
Here is the link...but it's free hosting and has been down for a while (seems to be okay now) http://www.websamba.com/petsinthecity/inc_top.txt
Let me know if you have any problems viewing it and I'll send it to you.
Thanks again

I don't see anything in your inc_top.txt file about the BanIP mod. Have you put the code in one of the included files?

You're missing the code in red: <td width=100%>
<%' ########################### Ban IP Mod ###############################
sub banIP()

Thanks Davio, it worked!!!! I thought it'd probably be something simple like that... but as you can tell, I don't know a lot about this coding lark - I am learning though (slowly...) '<%' seem to go at the beginning and end of functions (is that correct?), but that piece of code in the mod file didn't have one at the start and still worked, would it have been using the open (<%) from the code above it (previously the forum nav)? How come it didn't have one of it's own in the original code? Sorry about the extra questions, just trying to understand
Much gratitude

These tags <% %> are the opening and closing tags for the VBScript. It is needed to seperate the HTML from the VBScript. Since the Forum Nav was VBScript it already had an opening tag. The BanIP sub just came after it. It didn't need the opening tag again.
But since you added the BanIP sub after some HTML you need to use an opening ASP tag to tell the server that what comes next is VBScript and not HTML.
