If so, what terms did you try:

Write your message below:

The messages aren't being deleted when I enter the admin pwd.

I modified mboard.php to write all the <!--o-->, <!--s-->, <!--z-->
and <!--k--> comments CORRECTLY, per W3C guidelines, to <!-- o -->,
<!-- s -->, <!-- z --> and <!-- k -->.

Could this be the problem?

I also do not see where you are actually deleting the file in the msg dir in
doDelete.

Yes, changing the comment tags is the problem. You will have to update all the regular expressions and strstr searches to make that work.

Deleting of messages is done with the unlink PHP function.

Then you should consider updating the code to handle comments correctly per the specs. Better yet, would be to support XHTML
strict, then it would force you to do that.

I tried updating the regexs, too, but it still didn't work.
I will revert back to the non-std code.
