I've been working on this for close to a week to no avail. I've followed FatJack's instructions the best that I could, but am stuck now. I was able to get the PHP embedded into the html file, but I lose the layout that I have for the rest of the site. For the website I use a separate style sheet (style.css) but cannot find a way to integrate that with the PHP option. I'm very, very new to web programming so I am now stuck at a wall. If someone can please help me, I'll be very appreciative. By the way this is for a personal website for family to check the status of our soon-to-be-son. The website is http://www.babysantos.com You can click on the button on the front page to see how it is. Thank you in advance!!!

To integrate Advanced Guestbook you'd have to edit the header.php and footer.php files to match your website. An easier alternative is to use Lazarus which comes with a single file you include on your site exactly where you want the guestbook to appear.

Hey Carbonize, I appreciate the link to your adaptation of the guestbook. It looks absolutely great. I've searched your forums and your FAQ's with no luck looking for a tutorial for the gbinclude.php. Do you have one available? A+++ on the guestbook design man. Thanks again for your help.

Tou use the include file you just copy the code from the top of the Style section of admin and place it in the page where you want the guestbook to appear EXACTLY where you want it to appear. This page must use the .php extension.
