Installing Matt's WWWBoard Script

Preface

WWWBoard is an interactive message board which can add new dimension to an otherwise two-dimensional web site. WWWBoard visitors can post new messages and allows others to respond directly beneath the original post. The site webmaster will have password protected access to an administrative interface to maintain board content.

WWWBoard Generator
On our UNIX web hosting accounts, we have installed a wwwboard generator to eliminate manual installation efforts. To install the WWWBoard script within your web site, simply access your account Control Panel and select the WWWBoard Installer option.

*** Important ***
The WWWBoard Installer will overwrite previously installed WWWBoard scripts.

Special Notes

• You can modify the wwwboard.html file to meet your own design standards, but do NOT remove the <!--begin--> tag which tells the Perl script where to insert new entries.
• Admin script URL: http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-local/wwwadmin.pl
• Installation notes are available to RS-Professional Plan and hig her users for those wishing to modify the script.
• Documentation for cgi-bin use on RS-Personal Plan users is avail able.
