Other day i was trying to install phpBB3 style on one of our forums. I was facing so many problems that i thought of posting on blog about it. First thing first. Do not upload using your root user of the server, otherwise the phpbb3 wont be able to access it.

Be sure to upload the style template to location of the forum_root/style/*

When uploading the template, make sure there is a file called “style.cfg” and 3 folders. Imageset, theme, and template.

After making sure to do all those things, the new template style should show up in the phpbb3 admin. Any problems let us know.

Many years have been using onIntervel and there always is a problem with it. So we have put together this post to help and make your life easier.

Please, note that flash onIntervel is only available from flash 6 player and actionscript 1.

Here is a code i have put together…
//
function funToRun() {
trace(”var1:”+var1);
var1++;
//
if (var1 == 3) {
//
trace(”if cond true”);
clearInterval(intervalItem);
//
}
//
}
//
function stopIntervalFun() {
trace(”stop called!”);
clearInterval(intervalItem);
var1 = 0;
}
//
function startIntervalFun() {
trace(”start called!”);
var1 = 0;
clearInterval(intervalItem);
intervalItem = setInterval(funToRun, 500);
}
//
butt1.onPress = function () {
//
startIntervalFun();
//
}
butt2.onPress = function () {
//
stopIntervalFun();
//
}
//
FLA of onIntervel code

This i have noticed is best way of using the onIntervel method. Be sure to always clearIntervel before moving on. Otherwise there are always problems, where it does not stop and different odd behaviors take place.
