first, i want to say how much i have learned from this forum. thank you to all the support - open source and the community has been awesome.
i wanted to create a very simple website with a php form -> feeding a mysql database that would post name, date and url.
i searched around on the internet and actually found an awesome comment code and have that working nearly perfectly with little effort. i'm very grateful to scriptsmill, the install was straightforward and i had the form working in about 20 minutes including ftp, database set up etc.
here's the page www.leaderdealer.com/submityoursite.php
i was able to instruct the visitor to put a url in one of the fields and upon submit the data posts to the database and displays on the page immediately.
i searched through the php files and I couldnt actually find ECHO or PRINT. from the best i can determine, the comments are posted with "function smcom_view()". one attempt to post an href statement i got Flood Detected warning. eeks! i found that instruction and wont do that again!
i'd like to tweek the code slightly. this script doesnt actually edit the webpage. so i may need a different solution all together.
i need the page to actually post the backlink so someone can find the link in my source code or click on an active link on the page
whats the best path forward? thanks again.
