i believe its in this:


<?php
if ($_POST['submit']) {
$postedby = $_POST['postedby'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$user = "shoutbox_admin";
$host = "localhost";
$password = "admin";
$database = "shoutbox_simple";
$connection = mysql_connect($host,$user,$password)
or die ("Could not connect");
$db = mysql_select_db($database,$connection)
or die ("Could not select");
$sql = " INSERT INTO `$id` ( `threadname` , `postedby` , `message` , `ip` ) VALUES ( '', '$postedby', '$message', '' );";
mysql_query($sql);
} else {
?>

as i said above i believe its here:



<?php
if ($_POST['submit']) {
$postedby = $_POST['postedby'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
$user = "shoutbox_admin";
$host = "localhost";
$password = "admin";
$database = "shoutbox_simple";
$connection = mysql_connect($host,$user,$password)
or die ("Could not connect");
$db = mysql_select_db($database,$connection)
or die ("Could not select");
$sql = " INSERT INTO `$id` ( `threadname` , `postedby` , `message` , `ip` ) VALUES ( '', '$postedby', '$message', '' );";
mysql_query($sql);
} else {
?>

You have and else { at the end that is not closed. Do you close that later on?

Also, if ($_POST['submit']) { should be if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {. The first way may work on your server, but it is not the correct way, and will cause errors on many servers.

The get variable 'display' is no longer set once users get the reply.php 'post' is, however...
