I'm currently working on a website, http://www.hockeycoach.com. Currently, it is running using iframes to load three pages - one as the top banner (this one can easily be eliminated), a second to load the forum, and the third as the advertisement area.

I can easily do away with the banner iframe, but I need to have the ads present regardless of what is viewed in the forums. It needs to be so that the ads are always there (The ads are handled by a single php file). Does anyone have an suggestion for a better system to work with? Thank you much!!!

PHP includes are always great. Have you tried that?

Actually got it figured out myself. I went into overall_header and overall_footer (phpbb files) and used a php include for my banner and ads. Thanks!
