repopulating please read the post before responding! He said he doesnt want someone elses, and further yet he wants to make his own system!

well have a snoop around microsfot asp site, there might be something there, this site was written using that. (i think)

Are you doign some sort of project? cos i rember once you were asking about html frames...i worked out how to do proper frames now, not just iframes, so if you want help with that...

Oh btw, repopulating you have no idea what your talking abotu do you?

JC stop being a smartass, or ill tell everyone about how mypsp's smartest hb'er had trouble finding the ban button i am joking you know .. dont take this seriously.

Maybe you should just sign up to a host and pay the money, and start from scratch?

Only if you go to a free web hosting site, and use theres. In which case you have to use their software to set it up, and u have all the **** ads, and its very limited.

camlew clarify "Also how do you make a forum?" you could mean a few things

Yes you can setup a free site, using a free host of course i use awardspace.com lots of features, mysql, and its all free. It use to be only free, but now there are "server upgrades". When we had a similar discussion to this somwhere most people said freewebs, but if your gonna hose your own forum, you need features that Freewebs dont. The big forum engines (phpBB, IPB, VB) all use PHP and mysql. I dont think freewebs offer php, and i know they dont offer mysql. Some other engines (SMF - i reccomend it, good sis) also use php and mysql. Some others (YaBB) use perl which i havnt bothered with.

well im kinda bored i na do the asssignment for you =D

well...im sure no one will care if u use SMF...
www.simplemachines.org/

PHP + MySQL. Has very good iis (sii....cant rember the word, something like that) Check this site out:
awg-clan.com.au.ms/
i made that, forum uses SMF. On thwe front page, the news is taken from the forum using SIS, login area to the right, messages down the bottom is the forum using SIS.

*edit* if it needs user interaction i can help with that:
-use Dawg Tag for a shoutbox. its very simple and u can easily remove the abnoxious copyright notice
-Use PJIRC as an IRC java applet.

If your site is going to be of reasonable size, and you knwo it, you may want to consider paying for a more high-end forum engine. i reccomend IPB, latest version.

You can try Drupal, PHPBB or other forum php scripts or Content Management Plugins... I find those softwares very confusing and hard to use though.
