as has been pointed out looks like your missing <? at the very beginning of your code, also you need to rename your htm or html page, to .php

have you given chmod permissions to your tmp and public folders?

give write permissions to your templates

do the bump sorry, but you can get help if you need it there as well as here...and you dont have to browse the poll and link posts

you dont need to download php if your host supports it thats all you need plus a mysql database, ask your host.

Worked for me also, have you got your cookies enabled?
try to get this sorted quickley and change your passord and login

Go to your guestbook admin folder and open config.inc.php with an editor
and find

/* database settings */

$GB_DB["dbName"] = ""; <--insert the name of your database
$GB_DB["host"] = "localhost";
$GB_DB["user"] = ""; <--insert your login name you use for the databse
$GB_DB["pass"] = ""; <--insert the password you use to access your database

things that go bump in the night

You have to go to your admin pages to do all that

Advanced Guestbook Support Forum

simply remove the. $USER_PIC from the entry.php and no pics will show, you may want to alter the form.php to remove the option to upload a pic too, for further help go to the link above its a new support forum for advanced guestbook

Hi, like all of you, we think this guestbook script is one of the best around, but also like all of you, we are frustrated at the lack of support offered. which if given would have made this srcipt superb...

So because of this jared i have decided to team up and offer guestbook help, jared will help with technical side of things, and i will help with cosmetic change questions ect.

We are going to set up a section for guestbook help on a private forum, the reason we decided this, was becuse many people come here for help on the poll and counter and links scripts, and we unfortunatley cant offer help on those scripts.

so in few days we will post the support forum for advanced guestbook help here, it will be a few days to set everything up, we hope you will come there to find friendly helpfull advice for advanced guestbook

thankyou
here the address to goto for help:
Advanced Guestbook Support Forum

Just like to add, anyone that feels they can help us with this then please get in touch pm me on here

are you sure that "gbook" is the name of your database, and not just the name of the guestbook directory, as i think that is probablly the mistake you have made.

why should he/she allready know this, look if your giving help to someone help them, dont berate them for not knowing something that you "think" they should know.

The jumpbox menu is there for convenience of skipping quickly to other pages of entries on the guestbook, so if you have 5 pages you can pull down the menu and skip from the main page to page five, i dont think you will be able to alter it unlless the page you want to include is actaully part of the guestbook.

Have you given read and write permissions (chmod) to the "public" and "tmp" folders
you need to do that for images to show.
