I would like to learn to create a forum. I would like to do it myself so I understand the behind the scenes to make it function right. Anyone know a good tutorial to follow?

it depends what kind of forum, you would like to do. If you would like something similar to do this forum, there is a free open source ...phpBB2, where you would have access to the source code so that you can see what it is made up of.

Yeah, just search for 'phpbb' on google or simply go to http://phpbb.com.

Another forum of which you can check out the code is http://mercuryboard.com.

Good luck :)

Will these work on an xp pro box with IIS installed? I want to configure and test these first on this before throwing it on the server.

I used the phpbb. I like it. It was very easy to setup and configure, and being able to look into the files helped to. Thanks!!!
