A
guestbook is a forum for your visitors to leave your comments,
ideas, or just kudos. You're the Guestbook is hosted on
our servers, so you simply include the link in your web
page and our servers do the rest.
Guestbook
allows you to set up your own comment page. From there,
visitors can add entries to your guestbook and they will
be displayed with the most recent at the top and scrolling
down, or vice versa. Other options include the ability to
limit HTML in the entry, link to e-mail address with mailto
tag, use a log to log entries, redirect to a different page
after signing, emailing whenever a new entry is added, and
much more.
Guestbook
is already set up for use on your server. You can simply
use the following URL to access it: http://yourdomain.com/Guestbook/guestbook.html
There
should be a Single Page Shopping Cart program installed
on your server. You can see what it looks like by going
to this URL with your browser:
http://www.yourdomain.com/shop/boutique.html
If
you want to customize the shopping cart, (and you will if
you want to sell products using this program), you can visit:
http://virtualpublisher.com/
The
Virtual Publisher Shopping Cart program is sophisticated
and complex. Rather than reprint all their directions here,
please go to their website and download the help files associated
with it.
If
the Single Page Shopping Cart program wasn't installed on
your server and you want it, please send us email and we'll
make sure it's installed right away!

Various Page Counters
There
are 3 different types of page counters you can place on
your pages. The first is a no-frills graphical counter which
looks like this:
To
use this one, put the following tag somewhere on your page,
but change the yourpage.htm to be the address of the actual
page you are putting this counter on. Also, don't break
up the tag like we did. We had to do that to fit it on the
page. The width=5 part refers to how many digits you want
in your counter.
<IMG SRC="/cgi-bin/nph-ount?width=5&link=http://yourdomain/yourpage.htm">
Graphical
counter: A simple counter called using "img" tag.
You can edit the count on any page by going to the counter
directory off of your main www and changing the number in
the txt file of the page you would like to correct.
http://yourdomain.com/counter
Finally,
the simplest kind of page counter is a text-based counter.
It uses SSI so the page you are putting it on must have
the .sht, .shtm, or .shtml extension. It will look like
whatever text and size attributes you give it on your page.
The tag looks like this:
<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-yourdomain/counters/counter.cgi"-->
After
you've put the counter on your page, look at it with your
browser. If you don't see the counter the first time, hit
reload. Then you should see the number 1. If you want to
change the page counts, FTP to your site, and look in the
counter directory in your cgi-bin. There will be a file
there with the name of whatever page you placed this counter
on. Just upload a new text files with a new number on it,
and that will be the new count on the page next time you
hit reload. Remember to upload the file in ASCII or text
format.
The
search engine receives the input from the CGI form and processes
the required files in order to find the search terms.
The list of files is found in /www/user/dirscan/fileinfo.txt.
The script would not work if it doesn't get the valid list
of files. For compiling the list of files to process use
the dirscan.pl utility (so you're actually getting two separate
projects, disrcan.pl can be used separately for creating
a valid list of your files on the disk).
Add the following html code to the page directly in your
/www that you want the search button on. Note: be sure to
change hostingsupport.com to your domain.
