Scooter24, You have described what you are looking for very well and don't need the url to show us. Take a look at Knowles' suggestion there are a lot of useful scripts in that list.

I don't know how well I described things and if people really understood what I meant. That's why I posted the example URL. So are all URLs in posts forbidden ?

I tried yesterday eight different guestbooks from that resource. Not sure if I found what I was looking for (spent a few hours playing with them and don't know yet if I can customise them the way I want). What I was hoping to get, was a pointer to a specific (free) guestbook which exactly matches my criteria and with whom somebody had positive experiences. If it's forbidden to post URLs, then just tell me the name of such a free PHP guestbook and I'll look for it with Google.

Try this one on for size. NO data base needed! Creates the data file on the first submit by itself.

You need to change the CHMOD the guestbook.txt file, I think 667 should do I cant remember of the top of my head. You can do this in your FTP client or possibly through your Control panel for your hosting.

You might need to set the directory that it is located in to read and write. Also try naming the file with .php3

The script worked for me after I created an empty guestbook.txt file with notepad, uploaded it and set its permissions to 777. I also set the permissions of the directory where it resides to 755. Naming the script with .php was sufficient. But there is one thing missing - the referrer input field ('found site through' with a pull-down menu).

The script was set to automaticaly detect the referrer. Just change
<input type="hidden" name="from" value="<? echo $HTTP_REFERER ?>">
to
<select name="from" class="inputbox">
<option value="" selected>- Please Select -
<option value="foo">foo
<option value="foo2">foo2
<option value="foo3">foo3
<option value="foo4">foo4
<option value="foo5">foo5
</select> foo = what ever you want the choices to be. dhdweb
