Hey guys (and girl...as we have one on the list...(that i know of)), Can anybody recommend a real bare bones forum that i can modify or a tutorial for creating a forum or URLs/Classes etc to help me create a simple forum? I checked on google but I couldnt find any tutorials or code, went to hot-scripts and saw a _c r a p l o a d_ of forums (for free and otherwise) but I have a client who insists I build him a forum which must fall _exactly_ to his specifications and work of our currently registered users database. Worse scenario, I will dl a few of the forums from hotscrpts and go through each of their code...but I would like to avoid that if anyone can give me a better option. 2nd question I will need a kind of "client editor" for when people write their messages into the forum, eg: make this bold and that italics and that centered and that with an image and so on I had actually seen a (dhtml, I think) form some time back where you could preview your message at the side as you made changes...somewhat like what google has for their ad-cents accounts where you can change the colors of your ad and immediatly it shows the changes at the side in a box. I remember sometime back someone posting some WYSIWYG kind of editors which loads on the clients machine with just a textbox and the buttons to go bold, italics,centered etc unfortunatly looking into the archives i cant find it.
