Hi. I was windering if anyone at all could help me set up this guestbook. I have seen one i like, downloaded the scripts and PHP files but the instructions arent very good for someone who has never worked with PHP before. I thought a guestbook would be a good start to working with PHP but obviously not. I have never worked with it before. I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to set me up this guestbook. I know this might sound a little cheeky but i really have tried my self and cannont for the life of me figure out how to do it. So plz any help would really be grateful.

Here the GUESTBOOK

Cheers, Karl

1. Creat a MySQL Database & Username

2. Open /admin/config.inc.php. Place the username & pass + the database name in it.

3. Upload them.

4. CHMOD the nesesary files to 777, Right click the folders, Options, Just select all the Options

5. go on yourdomain.com/guestbook/install.php
Follow the instructions.

Heres a demo,

Thanks. Still a bit confused though lol!! Any simpler explanations or any1 that could set it me up if i gave them the pass and user to my site Host. Thanks anyway that was a really big help

Setting it up is easy.
Ask an admin too set it up for you if you dont trust anyone.
To create the MySQL db go on SQL in CPanel.
Add a db
& a user/pass
Put thease details in the config.inc.php file.

HERE-MAKE A DB & USER, Post it, I will configure it. Put it in a zip file and give it you by uploading it too my site & you can download it there.

REALLY QUICKLY NOW-Make a database & user/pass
add the user/pass to the db. Post the db name & user/pass here.
I will set it up, Put it in a zip, Give it you.

Im sorry i dunt use trap17 to host my site. I use atspace.com and use macromedia dreamweaver to create my site. Can you still help me??

Yeh shure its the same thing. Still post here your site address and db name and user/pass you created.
I'll install it for you in yourdomain.yourhost.com/directory/install.php
