Does anyone have a script (or program, or other idea) to assist in multiple forums posting?

That depends on the forum, and whether they allow external forms to input into the server-side scripting. If that's the case, you could just create an HTML or PHP doc on your home machine and have it input a form to more than one forum. Each input would have to be customized to the "name" field of the input type etc. Theoretically, it's possible... However I wonder how many forums out there will accept foriegn forms..

Something to consider is:

The forum (If it accepts foriegn forms) may switch field types and/or names, thus rendering your script useless until you reconfigure it.

You may want to contact the forum administrators for more info on this, whether they will condone it etc ... Personally, with the work involved, using bookmarks, tabs and 'copy 'n paste' in Firefox, I can post to 5 - 7 foums in about a minute. Personally? I wouldn't waste the time unless you do a lot of posting to a lot of forums ... Furthermore, if you do that much posting, you may consider starting your own forum ;0)

Happy huntings!
