If you mean http://www.lildraganon.cjb.net/ site. Ok check your "www" option near your profile option. you have entered an invalid link !!!
( http://www.antionline.com/www.lildraganon.cjb.net ) what is this? :)
Um, dragon, that didn't make all that much sense, at least not to me. Could you clarify what you were saying? Then more people will try to help you out.
OK sorry :)
what I mean is like I want to do my own message board in my website but I dont know how to do it. Like I use a website message board that is called bravenet.com but I dont like the options that they give me to do it. I want to create my own message board but dont know how to do it is there any way to do something like this in a website?
Thanks for the help
I thought that was what you meant. And, actually bravenet is a pretty cool site, they have loads of info, but I can understand how you find them limiting. Well, that is pretty complicated question, and just to let you know, you may want to report this in another forum, because this isn't the correct one for this question. If you want something with more flexibility try using cgi. You may want to stay away from java just because it is pretty complicated. Cgi should get the job done, try looking at cgi help sites.
Try a bulletin board system like phpBB or something.
Hey khakisrule thanks for the help :)
You can't make a bulletin board completely out of HTML and I have never seen one made out of Java. Most boards are made out of PHP or (as khakisrule said) CGI.

There are lots of options, if you want something kind of basic, use html, its good enough. If you want something with more flexibility try using cgi and java.

So a cgi one would be better? Or is there a program to do message boards and stuff like that to do it easier? Because i dont no nothing about cgi code.
Thanks for your help
HTML is a Markup Language. You can't use it to provide dynamic content. If you want to build something that users can interact with, like a message board, you need to use a scripting language like PERL, C, PHP etc.Quote:
Actually, you can make one out of html, it is rudimentary, it is usually just linked pages with updated links and stuff, and java ones exist too, though I have no idea how they work. I saw them on some flash heavy site. I don't know much about php or cgi though.
