Thanks for the help, it works great now, just misunderstood!

I thought the Comments box & the Message box where the same thing?

The link you give for the update appears to be a dead link. Is there any chance of you making it available somewhere else?

You need to put the background image in your site images folder rather than your guestbook images folder.

I just used the script as it is...I didn't add a cookie.php file. So what you're saying is that the only way for it not to work is that I added something to the original script ? (which I didn't). Thanks then

the poll is great, very useful.

PROBLEM..
I can't seem to get the poll to use different templates for showing multiple polls with different looks. I am using this string, but it doenst have any effect even though the template simple is very different from default.

$php_poll->set_template_set("simple");

does anyone have any clues? thankful for all help.

The server time offset is still set to "0" since I don't really know it's function...Can the problem come from there ?

Actually, I do have a question: I got the IP Table checked and the timout locked at 2 hours, but still a whole day after voting I still get the "u have voted" text and just the results...What am I doing wrong ?

It took me a while but I found the solution!!!

In order to get the top countries and top hostnames to work on an installation of Access Stats 1.12 on IIS. You must first enable reverse dns lookup in IIS. The instructions on how to do this can be found at the following url: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=297795

Enjoy! Because I know alot of people are wondering why it doesnt work on their NT box with IIS.

Hi there,
I have a website, VINTAR.COM hosted by SURFBETS.NET, and elected to have ADVANCED GUESTBOOK.
The issue I am having is this: In the message form, there is a limitation of text that could be entered, and this can be
controlled thru Admin. This is fine. However, in the comment form, there is no limitation of text that could be entered.

So, what is happening in my guestbook, is that when the users discovered that there's no limit on the comment form,
they are using this, instead of the message form, and enter huge amount of text.

Like the message form, I would like to have a limit on the comment form also. Otherwise, I would easily exceed the disk
space capacity alloted to my website.

Thanks for your support .......

I found the answer myself at the novell site.
Here you can download a .pdf file about php for netware. In it you can read all the things you need.

thanks anyway

OK, I don't know much on PHP...
I installed the advanced poll stuff, the MySQL database is made and so on, wortks all fine. But now... How do I get a poll in my website (index.html). Whenever I paste code I get to see "poll_process(x); // x = Poll ID ?> " in the page. I must be overlooking something....

Please help.

How can I put a poll on my index.php main page? The poll only works when I put the index.php file in the folder with booth.php. (/poll/index.php).

I'm adding entries by hand from my old guestbook to my new one (don't have the SQL for the old one), but my old guest book didn't have a gender field, and I can't just guess the gender of all who signed it. So...I want to know if there is a way for me to add the old entries into my new one, and then edit out the gender field just for those old entries. I tried opening the book_data file in phpmyadmin and changing the gender record from 'm' to just '' but that didn't work. Any ideas?

Open up header.php in your templates folder.

Search for <style type="text/css">

Underneath <style type="text/css"> add the following:

body
{
background-image:
url("../images/your image file.jpg")
}

This does work as it's the way I did it. I'll admit I had problems with the other options but this works fine.
