i don't know about breaking rules but if you want some help you will have to give more details as what you want to do. Did you write the cgi yourself is giving you an error. there are a lot of opensource guestbook available at sourceforge.org maybe the readme from one of them could give you a hint.

IF , ELSE , WHILE isn't that what life is all about

This is a bulletin board, so you'll have to come back to see if there is an answer. If you want someone do to it for you, you can post in Marketplace, otherwise, as Druagord says, we'd need some more information.

URLs are good.

k, that's not an url! How about telling us WHAT guestbook you're trying to set up, what features you have on your server, and giving us an url for the guestbook so we can see what errors are being generated?
