    I am just so proud of you son. Me and ma always thought you were going to be a drunk or a social misfit... but you proved us wrong. ps Ma wants to know if you are going to hand out your dirty underwear soon. And lunch is ready soon.

    Thanks. I tried that one, and it wouldn't work on my server for some reason. Stupid SQL errors. Oh well, I guess I can deal with the ones I am using right now.

    did you edit the "_data.inc.php" file first ???

    it has the following default configuration.

    <?
    // Hostname or IP of your MySQL-Server
    $mysqlhost = "localhost";
    // Username and Password to Login to your Database
    $mysqluser = "root";
    $mysqlpassword = "";
    // Name of your Database
    $mysqldb = "";
    // Number of this Board
    $n = "1";
    // Email Address of the Administrator
    $adminmail = "";
    ?>
    Change the localhost to the machine name if you run mysql in some other machine...

    Don't use the mysql root account. Create a new user such as wbb
    and a new database such as 'wbbdb'. Make sure you grant all rights on wbbdb to wbb.

    then finally run the install.php

    Yeah I know... I've set up like 6 other forums that use mySQL in the past week. I set it up right, it created the tables without a problem, then I deleted the install.php, like it said, and tried to log into the admin section. Kept giving a whole bunch of errors like header already sent by functions.php on line xxx. I'm going to try it again, and see if it does the same thing.....

    Dear Mr Thinktank the Second
    As much as I do enjoy the wanton violence depicted in your new avatar I do confess a feeling of sadness and loss for the gleefully dancing santa that previously held this position. I will no longer be buying cheesy puffs from your company
    Yours sincerely

    i like ikonboard a lot better than anything else...
    Government is another way to say better…than…you.
    It’s like ice but no pick, a murder charge that won’t stick,
    it’s like a whole other world where you can smell the food,
    but you can’t touch the silverware.
    Huh, what luck. Fascism you can vote for.
    Humph, isn’t that sweet?
    And we’re all gonna die some day, because that’s the American way

    Dear Mr.Disheartened,

    Don't call it violence. Remember the squabble with your 5 year old neighbour on which cartoon show to watch. Would you call that violence ? ...or the fight that erupted when you stole his cookies when he went to take a piss and you got a nasty blow on your nose. I can recommend you to OBL and u can join the taliban for a change.
