I will download again and try 'unpacking' again.

Or can someone suggest somewhere I can download it from without unpacking, or at least a list of folders/files that should be in the zip
ok - i used the zip prog you suggested.

I unpacked it - which i had to do twice for some reason - uploaded it, couldn't find a help file so went to http://www.caroles-crafts.co.uk/guestbook/install.php.

It asked me for database, mysql username, mysql password, guestbook username, guestbook password.

I am not sure what to put in where to upgrade existing guestbook or if i should start again and then transfer in my database.

But I have the additional problem in that it says

Warning: /home/carolec/public_html/guestbook/public is not writeable
Warning: /home/carolec/public_html/guestbook/tmp is not writeable

but there is NO folders called public or tmp so how can i make them writeable.

Is there a help file which would give me simple instructions.
Yes I know it is not your script - it was a general comment.

I did try to use your script but just got a blank forum even though i had changed to the existing database. I may try again with yours as the support is excellent
I have the zip program which comes with winxp. why would you save a script for general use in a format which can't be unzipped by a standard program?
What do I do with guestbook-dev.tar.gz now i have downloaded it
i went ahead and tried laz but the guestbook is empty.

I think i would like to try upgrading the existing guestbook script so that it works but I dont know what to do with guestbook-dev.tar.gz

Can't find any instructions anywhere. It just asks what program i want to use to open it
The only difference I can see in the 2 guestbooks is that my craftbits site (which uses advanced guestbook) is that it has a drop down list at the top which goes to each of the pages and my forum.

http://www.craftbits.co.uk/zzzz/index.php

The site I have with your guestbook does not - it has now been upgraded to the latest version by the way

http://www.knitone.co.uk/gb/index.php

Is it possible to have this drop down on Lazarus?

actually, just seen your signature. My other sites use your guestbook and you have helped me with them. Can i change this guestbook to the same as yours easily?
ok - am i being really, really thick here, but what do you do with the file you download ?

guestbook-dev.tar.gz

i did it before via my cpanel soft... something or other - that was easy
Sorry that was what I ment

will give it a go
yes i did change the footer to avoid spam, and it worked. I left the link to here or I would not have know where i got it from

Will the new version change all the changes i did - like colours etc?

I assume it is the Advanced Poll 2.0.9 i need to download.
I have a guestbook which the footer comes here.

I don't know which version it is or how to upgrade it.

I am moving my guestbook to a new domain because i will be moving hosters shortly and wanted to make sure the guestbook remained live while i moved hosters.

The old guestbook is at http://www.craftbits.co.uk/zzzz/index.php

The new one is at http://www.caroles-crafts.co.uk/zzzz/index.php

It appears to have moved ok except for the error which I believe is because the version is so old.

Any help would be appreciated.
