I'm planning on using the Snitz db and some functions on other parts of my site - but, since a user isn't entering the forums, I don't really think they should be logged in (as this effects looking at active topics, etc.). Should I just not include inc_top.asp? It seems that's where all the login and cookie info is, but I didn't know if I was missing anything in inc_functions.asp?
I'd say you're pretty much right, since the login and cookie stuff is handled in inc_top.asp. inc_functions.asp only includes functions / procedures called from elsewhere.
