    Is this possible? I have heard that you need a style sheet to make it work....does anyone know of a free easy to use guestbook function? I just need one temporarily...thanks.

    I've never heard of creating a guestbook with dreamweaver. The only way i have ever heard of was to use a server-side language such as php or asp. If you do not know these languages you can sign up for one free on a lot of sites. Here is one: www. smartgb .com/

    A guestbook is very simple in php. It consists of these things:

    User entering the message & name
    Inserting into a database
    Redirecting the user
    Displaying the information

    There are plenty of tutorials out there to make a guestbook ;)

    i recommend using a ready script,
    its not such a difference and most of the scripts can be modified

    this is true if you dont know what you are doing. It protects against simple hacks like sql injections, html injections etc. if you have no clue what you are doing. but it is simple all you need are these php functions:

    fopen()
    fread()
    fwrite()
    fclose()

    and you are set.
