Making forums

Hi, Im new to using frontpage and do not have much problem using most
features and have found tutorials on doing most thing. My question is how can
I make a forum for my website with frontpage? Can I? I can't find information
on whether I can do it myself with frontpage or how to do it? I would assume
I can since you can have guestbooks etc. If someone could let me know how or
send me a link to a tutorial it would be greatly appreciated thank you.

If you have FP 2003, this will get you on your way:

no you can't. You will need a third party script to accomplish this, like those
on www.hotscripts.com or there are others around, depending on your server's
capability, operating system, and what you're allowed to put on it (some hosts
don't allow outside scripts at all, apart from what they provide).

doesn't FP have a "discussion web" component, I recall it
was a bit messy but workable

Andrew -

Of course you can! There's even a Discussion Web Wizard for the purpose. How well
this function is implemented is another story.

Perhaps we should all be a bit more careful before posting "advice".
