If you can run Perl, then you could run YABB Gold1, the older version of YABBSE and SMF. That doens't use databases.

    Not bad why not try making it it valid will make it run a lot more smoothly which is what will be required with a file database. I'll download it when I get home to see how it works other than that not a bad job at all.

        If you go here then you'll see that it doesn't validate.

          May I suggest you use <?php instead of <? as this doesnt work on my local setup.

          After fixing it I have a quite a lot of undefined variables. Dont get me wrong you should really fix them they are easily fixed bugs by just defining variables and giving them null or $var = '';

            Interesting....I have installed my eForum on different settings and no undefined variable error has shown...Will work on getting it fixed.

            About the <?php <?, it doesnt make any diffence I guess, but nowadays I have used <?php only, so next time I see the code I will change it.

            About validation, although eForum seems to work fine w/out a valid html, I agree it is needed to be reached, and it is on my roadmap for sure.

            Thx guys for the feedbacks

              Actually <?php and <? do make a difference at the moment I have short_tags disabled so all I see is PHP code.

              What sort of settings have you tested it with just curious at the moment my setup is fairly strict with open_basedir enabled, safe_mode on etc.

              Other than that its not too bad by using the Demo, but yes it still requires a bit of work to work on all PHP setups.

                I agree w/ you.....It must work on any php settings...

                Here is the server settings where my demo is running:
                http://dotgeek.org/phpinfo.php

                  The reason <? is so bad is that OTHER tags besides PHP start that way, like <?xml and a few others. So, you can't handle files with legit tags for other things if you have short tags turned on.
