Greetings.
Just joined the community, and I profess at being completely stymified to php. I only know html, and thus it's going to be fun.
In fact, up until last week, I'd no idea what php was. I came about it while looking for a way to implement a message board for my website (free accoutn at tripod.com). Not entirely happy with ezboard.com's huge adds (and also being unable to cover costs for a non-add board) that I had set up, I browsed the net in search of a more customizable system. Then I discovered phpbb.
According to Tripod's help area, they don't allow php. Fine enough, I got a free account with spaceports. I've done everything backwards, it seems, by having everything ready when I do understand php to be able to set things up.
I won't ask questions just yet. Instead I'll be rtfm, and with the links already provided in previous posts in this community, (and in documentation at phpbb), I at least have a path to start on instead of scratching my head and asking "What the hell do I do next?".
I've babbled on long enough here. Just to reiterate, I'm new here so 'hi everyone'. Also, thanks for the links in previous posts to help me along my way. It's very much appreciated.
