And I actually tried to make it coherent this time. Pretty much the minimum number of features I thought were necessary; no registration, no boards. Basically threads and posts. All in clean, valid XHTML (and to piss off Xk: <table>s!). I didn't bother to fill it with comments, I thought it was pretty straight-forward. All this requries is PHP5, SQLite, and maybe a POSIX-compatible filesystem (uses chmod to control access to the database, dunno if it fails on winnt or whatever).
Originally, I didn't even want to style it with CSS; however, on thread.php it just didn't seem right without styling it so you can differ from the post header and post itself. Normally I don't really care to release stuff like this, however I've decided that perhaps it might prove useful for a number of purposes. Maybe learning PHP, or learning how to use SQLite in PHP, or building a board based off of it (it's pretty easy to expand it). Edit: I've been informed that Windows NT operating systems (the only versions of Windows still being supported by Microsoft) still have an old filename restriction that I assumed was limited to MS-DOS (including Windows 95/98/Me). If you are using one of these operating systems, you will be unable to extract con.php, so I'll post the file's contents here and you can change the source code of the other files which require it: <?php (edited by FreeDOS + on 01-25-07 08:16 PM) (edited by FreeDOS + on 01-26-07 03:26 AM) (edited by FreeDOS + on 01-26-07 03:30 AM) |

Huh, you're right, even on XP you can't name a file con.anything.
And way to break the tables. |

Well, heh. This board's editpost feature really needs to get that fixed. It doesn't convert, say, < to &lt; in the textarea box. | |||

Do you have a link where we can just preview it?
Very neat though. |

Not on any permanent server
I've made some screenshots, but it's not like it's hard to install the darn thing. |

Looks neat, but I can bet you can do way better than that. I also did a forum system, by December 28/2006 with the minimum features. I'm not linking to it as the forum is not for download and I think it's against the rules. | |||

Do you even understand what the goal was? It wasn't to jam every feature under the sun in it. I pretty much met my goal with it: to make a minimal board, that's easily expandable.
The only thing I can possibly imagine removing are threads and just be plain posts. But at that point it's not a board, but rather a guestbook. And guestbooks are so 1995. |

Yeah, I was kinda a bit rushed when I made that post (school), but I mean, atleast make people give themselves a name for the post like "unknown person#1" so we can distinguish who's who
And your right with the con.php, it wont extract. Wow, windows is buggy... |

Is that all? It's still outside of the goal of this project, but it's very easy to add that feature. Hell, adding a full-fledged login/registration system isn't that hard. | |||

Originally posted by FreeDOS + Yeah, but adding login/registration wouldn't be massively-light message board anymore . I remember seeing a board you could post using whatever name you want, similar to a guestbook but with threads. |
