ffGuestBook¶
Introduction¶
ffGuestBook is a PHP guestbook for web sites. Instead of using SQL databases, it relies on flat files for storage. It is fully configurable through templates, and includes support for English, German and Spanish. An administration interface for moderating entries is also provided, along with restrictions for preventing users from entering silly email addresses or unnecessarily long text.

Status¶
I decided to stop development on ffGuestBook. I think the program is usable as it is. There is one issue with the php configuration on the server: ‹register global variables› (or something like that) has to be enabled.
If somebody wants to take over this project, don’t do! Take the code if you like and build a new program from that. But, please, choose an other name! And credit. Thanks.
There are manuals in English and Spanish.
disabled register_globals workaround¶
An ugly hack to sort of enable register_globals=on would be something like this:
while (list($a, $b) = each($_GET)) $$a=$b; while (list($a, $b) = each($_POST)) $$a=$b;
