Hello all,
I am doing a little site for a friends dance class and found your very good message board script. My problem seems to be that the script does not actually create the posts. It all appears to work and you get a list of posts, but each post looks for 0.html so i guess that the html is not being created in the msg file(I have looked nothing there) I know it is my fault but new to this. The site is www.streetfunk.biz and you will see what i mean if you need any clarification. I have set all files to 777 in desperation but even this did not work.
Many thanks in advance

Can you double-check if file "counts.txt" is chmod-ed (exactly) to 666? Also if you upload phpinfo file to your server it could be helpful (you will find it in the "Read this before posting a new question" topic).

Try uploading this file, it might give me some clues:

Hi,

Don't rename it to "mboarddebug.php", you should overwrite the original mboard.php or the debug won't show because when posting you use mboard.php

Just upload the debug version again and keep the original "mboard.php" name.

Ok, I think I found the problem. Try if this mboard.php works normally:
