We need to keep our heads down and walk in the shadows here, I think we are in the wrong forum.
This is the guts of the script in php. You can see it in action at www.sensualgfescort.co.uk/guestbook/guestbook.php. Please don't look at the rest of the site, even if you are over 18. The content is tame enough, but I'm afraid you'll see my hopeless html scripting.
If your server handles php, put this code in the body of an html page and save it with a .php extension and it should work. You will need to upload a messages.txt file too (empty to start with) and to set the conditions on it to enable users to write to it.
If this is not clear, I'm happy to explain, but if you are familiar with php you will undersatand and be able to criticize it immediately.
Here goes.
<form name="form1" method="post" action="guestbook.php" target="main">
<p>Please write a message here:
<textarea name="new_message" rows="4" cols="50"></textarea>
<br />
<P><input type="submit" value="Submit Message">
<INPUT TYPE="reset" VALUE="Clear and Start Again">
</form>
<?php
if($new_message != null)
{
$new_message .= "<br /><hr />";
echo("$new_message");
}
$filename = "messages.txt";
$file = fopen( $filename, "r" );
$filesize = filesize( $filename );
$all_messages = fread( $file, $filesize );
fclose( $file );
echo ("$all_messages");
$new_message .= "$all_messages";
$all_messages = $new_message;
$file = fopen($filename, "w");
fwrite($file, $all_messages);
fclose($file);
?>
Thats it. I need to make some tweaks and add an extra box so users can enter e-mail address, etc. Any suggestions for improvement most welcome.
