Big time newb and I need help on Forums/Registration

[NicRab]

Ok I am a big time newb. I have been making this webpage and I was getting bored so I wanted to make a forum page. Now when I went to build one with frontpage 2002 I found that it would be best if I had a registration page.

I have been trying to make a registration page but i have been unsuccessful. Frontpage wants me to make a .asp registration. My host does not support asp. Now I have been searching around and I found that people have php in there forums and registrations.

I did a small amount of on php and I did not quite understand the matter. If someone could help me out that would be great.

How come whenever I am in a forum page on any site it looks exactly the same as any other. Is there some kind of forum make or something?

Help on my problems would be great, but what would be even better is html code that has samples of what I am talking about to help me out on the matter.

Please Help Me Someone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know if this is an option for you but here is a link to a forum that I have used and been happy with. http://www.phpbb.com/

It would probably be quite hard for someone to help you with your forums, unless you post a link or something so we can see what's going on.

Then pick one, so the rest of us don't need to bump into the same thread 4 times.
