scott100 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 You would need a server language like php and a database like mysql to do this, i don't know of any tuts on the web offhand.I'm sure this is a free forum that you could use: http://www.phpbb.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott100 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 so u dont think you can make one in CSS?Not in a million years CSS is used to control the style and layout of Web pages, it would control how your forum looked not the mechanics of how it works.

vchris Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 What I did is downloaded the phpbb forum and then you can look at all their code they used so it helps to understand how it works. You can view their database so you can understand the structure. Helps a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
