shoutBOX - Set-up

a) Installation

1) Unzip the downloaded file (WinZip) into a directory that is ready for uploading.

2) Open up your FTP client (SmartFTP) and navigate to your domain. Upload the shoutBOX folder that you unzipped, and then CHMOD data.dat to '0777' (To CHMOD right click the selected file).

3) To include the board on your webpage use the following code:

<iframe frameborder=0 src="http://yourdomain.com/shoutbox/board.php" width="130" height="450"> </iframe>

Substitute "http://yourdomain.com/shoutbox/board.php" with the suitable path to the shoutbox directory.


b) Customisation

Open up board.php with a text editor and edit the variables at the top of the page. Example:

This is the default setting: $color1 = "#FFFFFF";
Can be changed like: $color1 = "#FFCC00";

You are now set! Dont forget to include the iframe code to include the box on your webpage!
