Hello

After speaking to my host - he upgraded the Fantastico and now i was able to install Viper Guestbook - now that i have it - was wondering how i link my homepage to the guestbook? do i need a button? or a new box?

Why not create a new box with the link code inside. You can title the box 'sign my guestbook' Clever huh? Here's a new box code because I'm anticipating your next question:

<div class="boxTitleRight">Guest Book</div>

<div class="boxContentLeft">

<a href="http://www.mia-g.com.au/gbook">Click to Sign My Guest Book</a>

<border="0" >

</div>

<div class="boxFootRight"> </div>

Give me a break Roban ! i'm a stay-at home mum with a 1 year old hanging off my leg whilst i do this and try to learn!.... also went to bed at 4am and got up at 6am!

Thanks for the info - it worked a treat!

Good grief antz you don't save it at all. You paste it in your index.tpl file wherever you want the box to appear.

:innocent::wacko:

Now... what happens if i want this to be a button instead of a link?

You can always insert a button image and link to it. The code would look something like:

<a href="http://www.mia-g.com.au/gbook"><img src=here you put the link to your image for example:"http://www.mia-g-.com/button.gif"></a>

I don't know if i'm tired or just plain stupid - but where does that code go? in index.tpl or styles.css?

Thanks

That would replace the code in your new box. You'd have to create the button image, upload it to your server and then link to it. The code I posted is only an example.

<div class="boxTitleRight">Guest Book</div>

<div class="boxContentLeft">

<a href="http://www.mia-g.com.au/gbook"><img src=here you put the link to your image for example:"http://www.mia-g-.com/button.gif"></a>

Ok - thanks will do

now i have to find a way of those site docs on top to stand independently on its own from the site docs at the bottom; because i wish to add different titles with different context.

Thanks

Antz

You have to make a button with text in it.
