Posted: Sat Jun 17, 2006 3:38 pm Creating a php comment box.
I downloaded the configuration files for a comment box from http://digitalmidget.com/php_noob/comment.php and I beleive I put them in the right location in the same folder as my site, and named the folder comments. I put the insertion tag into the code, but nothing shows up.
I suspect it has something to do with this mentioned in the readme file,
Code:
The script assumes that you have ALREADY CREATED a database containing a table
named page_comments with the same field names as defined in the included sql file
[page_comments.sql]. This can be used to create the correct table structure
using phpAdmin's SQL import function.
Are the pages that you inserted the code into .php pages?
To get help with creating the database you are going to have to contact your host. Ask them how to create a database. You should see something about MySQL in your control panel. Then you will have to use phpMyAdmin (also probably available from your control panel) to import the table structure.
