Hey, all<br />
<br />
I have created a web page and want to kno how to make a shout box like this one<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.jermexpress.com/">http://www.jermexpress.com/</a><!-- m --> <br />
<br />
<br />
If you know how to do it, please let me see!!!! thanx<!--content-->Server side scripting. Meaning that you use scripts executed on the server, working with either text files or a database. My choice would be PHP as scripting language and MySQL as database.<br />
It's basically a form, you submit it, it goes to a processing page, the data(name, e-mail, time, date, ip, whatever you want) is written into the database, and then it sends you back to the page with the shoutbox. Along with the form in that page, the 10 or so latest entries in the database are printed.<br />
If you don't know any programming language, it might take a while to learn how to do these things.. Maybe it's a good idea to look for scripts on the net, so you dont have to do everything yourself. Whatever language you choose, make sure your hosts supports it.<!--content-->or if you are not handy at those coding languages you could use this.<br />

<br />
its a free shoutbox that I use as I learn those coding languages to make my own.<!--content-->I wouldn't use that board, because the developers seem to be idiots. From the tag-board on their site:<br />
<br />
"There is to be NO discussion of the war going on. This is your warning."<br />
<br />
Censoring *******s. How about freedom of speech?<!--content-->thats just there's on their main board. Your board will be allowed to have what you want.<br />
<br />
I know this for a fact because I had one before and they never sensored war content, but I took it down when my host took me out because of bandwidth, and I no longer have the password.<!--content-->tagboard rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<!--content-->Or you can get the one by webfroot (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/shoutbox/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/shoutbox/</a><!-- m -->)<!--content-->
