Script Help Pleeeease??

Mooncow

Well, theres this script i have that allows you to enter things into a table and people can view it. Kind of like a guestbook

But for some reason it don't work!!

Can someone good with php please help me? Pleeeeease?

Maybe contact me through a messenger program.

Even better would be to help me add stuff to it cos i don't know php..

The script is good though

Thanx ^_

Please look around the forum and see how other people ask for help.

Generally, nobody here is going to contact you and/or give you one-on-one tutoring on PHP coding (for free at least). Instead, post some of the example code you are having trouble with and we'll be glad to take a look at it.

If you are very new to PHP, may I suggest finding one of the Guestbook scripts on PHPBuilder or elsewhere that is already debugged and works?

its just that it requires lots of explaination :S

ok - It uses 5 files:

Shrine.php
Shrine.dat
counter.txt
template.php
settings.php

The code seems perfect. Heres the code for shrine.php

<?php if (!$action=="save"&&!$action=="sign") {?>
<html>
<!-- From here to the next line, you can put your HTML Code! --!>
