Is there some security issue's with this guestbook? I know first time I installed, made the mistake of deleting my database. BUT this time I once again lost my guestbook

and It wasn't on my part!! wtf is going on with this script?

Trevor wrote:Hi cndgirl,

Sorry to hear you lost your guestbook. All looks a bit too complicated for me.

You said you had the guestbook up and running and problems occurred after installing a forum - I'm assuming problems occurred as soon as forum installed, i.e. there's a conflict between the two. Is forum working as it should be?

Can you determine which files, if any, have been amended or overwritten by the forum (from the 'last modified' info). This could help determine where the conflict lies. You could then reinstall the affected files using different names - you'd also have to update all links and references in other files to take account of the new names.

One other suggestion - was guestbook &/ forum supplied by webhosting company? If so, their tech support may be able to help. I use Yahoo and even though they say they don't supply support for third party software they often do if you ask nicely.

Sorry I can't help more - best of luck.

Trevor

Trevor thank you very much for your reply.
I have taken care of my problem, it goes like this.....
When something is stressing you out, get RID of it!

Done.
Started fresh after contacting my webhosting provider.
Thank you for your help, best of luck.
