Cool trick!

It means that you have probably edited out one of the functions needed for guestbook/index.php

ET - That's right. I'm trying to achieve a seamless integration of the guestbook into our site at http://www.cancun-discounts.com. I want my navigation structure to be present and identical on all my pages.

JTD - I'm not using PHP to achieve the effect seen at http://www.cancun-discounts.com/guidebook/. I just edited the header and footer with my own, and it worked out really well on the main page and on the administration page. For some reason it's just whacked on the "sign the guestbook" page, and I see now that the "Submit" button doesn't even work. I must have messed something up.

What page is it that needs edited for this page to be put back to normal? Is it form.php? entry.php? It says "addentry.php" but that isn't a choice in the administration, so I'm guessing it's a compilation php of several things, which might be the problem.

Yes, i disguised the information. However, by changing the "host" to "localhost" did the trick. Thank you so much!!!!!!

I guess I'm not sure how to implement that. The headers and the footers are the same throughout, so why would one page be fine and the next be weird?

I understand what you're saying about the links, but I'm just trying to fit it into our site at http://www.cancun-discounts.com. This way it has the same navigation structure as the rest of our pages. Thanks for the advice, though, I'm always open to suggestions!

In general - probably that it needs to be called into another document before it can function correctly. Would need more info to know for certain.

I really like the advanced poll script, but I cannot get it to work even after reading the postings in this forum. This suppose to be simple...but something is wrong. Here are the steps I have taken:

-Changed the config.inc.php file:

$POLLDB["dbName"] = "Polldb";
$POLLDB["host"] = "mydomain.com";
$POLLDB["user"] = "db user name";
$POLLDB["pass"] = "db password";

-I obviously upload the changed file back into the include (file folder), and proceed to install.

-I also check that the database I created using the control panel at my webhosting company matches the information I included in the config.inc.php file.

-After running the installation step...i get this error...I do not get it since the password I included is the same...

I need your help, as I love this script but I cannot seem to install it. Thanks, JC

Hi Carbonize.

Your verification script is brilliant and yet so simple to install. Hats off to you.

Have just installed here http://www.jasonwood.info/guestbook/index.php and it's working a treat!

I was having to get rid of around 3-4 spammed entries each day for Jason, but fingers crossed, I won't have to again!

I was customizing my guestbook by implementing my headers, footers, sidebars, etc. It was going fine, and I had the look I was shooting for here.

The administration page looks OK too. However, when I hit "sign the guestbook", it's whacked. I'm not an HTML expert by any means, but I get around OK. I've tried and tried to figure out what the problem is, but I'm just hitting a brick wall.

Can you see what I'm missing? I think the problem might be that I don't know much about php. Everything I learned about it, I learned in the past couple hours reading the support forum here!

I sure appreciate any help!

I mean the free link page..that visitors can add a link to your website.

It does not contain any template or manual.. I need to change the links provided but my page will not work then.

I just want to know if there is a manual gide how to proceed when you have finished to instal the link script.

It is all working but how do I edit the site so it fits my needs ??

can anyone help me.. I need to get this page done the end of this weekend and I really need some help

Did you read this thread? I realize you have searched but sometimes, when we are frustrated we miss things...

If you have already seen it, I apologize for adding to your frustration.

thanks ET! I found all answers on this poll. Thanks!

Well my ISP provided me with advanced guestbook when I signed up 2 yrs ago.
I was confident and stupid to assume that it was secure, now I am crying, bcz some boozo hacked into the guestbook and destroyed all my 2 yr worth of comments. This was the old version sorry to say that. This is just a church website that does not bother anyone and really of no value.
I am just here venting my frustration or maybe could I have been able to restore it?
Now today I have installed version 2.3.1, and lo and behold my second guestbook visit was unfortunately some stupid boozo again from Turkey who tried to hack it. Now I have become very paranoid. Is this version very secure?

Here are some screen shots

Now the guy who unsuccessfully tried to hack the guestbook today only managed to leave this behind. I was able to delete this gargabe, lame attempt.
Any help, advice !!!

I am having a similar problem - though please don't tell me to search for it because I have. Every time I install Advanced Poll, it works for a while, but when I set up my first poll, save it, and come back to the admin section, my old password is now wrong. I've reinstalled it and the same thing keeps happening to me. ANyone deal with this too? I've tried the "default" combination, and it doesn't work.
