What kind of problems?Where is your code?Download a copy of AEF Forum software and rip their code apart to see how they do it.

You are overly obsessed with your own forum software my friend...

@vipervoid:
Are you making your own forums or modifying existing forum software such as phpbb or *shutters* AEF? (jk haslip)

And what do you mean by

query the last post.

Do you only want the avatar to change on your last post?

i think he wants the person who posted last to show up there.

he could easily use an update query.

ewcreators is right. i want to see the last person who posted. the reason that i've created my own forum is i just want to experience doing one. thanks for the help guys. i'll test that update thing.

well, when the person posts, i suggest you make the action page a redirect which comes back to the original page +

<?php//the page that updates everythingrequire('connection.php');require('sessions.php');require('user_stats.php');//determine whether it was a//edit or delete or new post through if/else//Insert /Update accordingly ^^//now use the last posted scrpt//if it is a new post$lp=mysql_query("UPDATE forum_posts SET lastposted='$_SESSION[username]'");//then you use a redirection to go back so that he cannot double post header('location:url');?>
