fabius 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2004 I use IPB, for my websites, and it's free to. The only thing you have to do is leave the copyright.PHP is good, it's easy, etc. but what some people don't understand with IPB for example is that it's not because they have installed a IPB that the can create a webpage. those peolple forget that the basic language of PHP is HTML. You have to know HTML before you begin with PHP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
overture 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2004 You dont HAVE to know html to be able to program in PHP although it would be pretty stupid to not know html and program in php as you need to include it into webpages with some kind of layout or you will have to echo out some html code in the scripts. It isnt a must but it would be a great plus to know it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to know HTML before you begin with PHP. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> IMHO this not the correct point of view. HTML is the "natural" output of every CSM, of every server-side scripting language at all. But that's it only because HTML was (and is) the "hystorical partner" of internet, as we all know. HTML is far from every scripting language, but every scripting language is forced to face with it. An internet without HTML would be a better internet, but Internet as we all know is "made of" HTML. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcguy 0 Report post Posted September 8, 2004 Some of these CMS scripts can be found in the Addon Scripts section of cpanel. You can then install directly from cpanel, and so no need to dowload the package from the official sites, upload and do the configuartion which can be quite tough for inexperienced users.

kelp 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2004 For CMS's, HTML(with some other elements) makes up the layout and php deals with the dynamic parts. Shoutbox, logins, etc.I haven't really tried CMS's that much because i find them cluttery and all the same because they always seem to have those three familiar columns.

But if you like to personalize your site is knowlege into HTML and PHP a must.CheersJens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted October 17, 2004 For my site http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I have intergrated ipb with phpnuke istead of the default and stupid phpbb. An intergrated version of phpnuke with ipb is also available in a distributable format from http://www.ipbnuke.net/. I highly reccomend you guys check it out, all that is need is the services of Xisto, ftp program and a version ipb (prefferably ipb1.3 and later). It is working for a dream with me and I continue to add new mods to enhance my site. I have added the ibproarcade with tubesocks mod (2.5.1) from http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/, enhanced download module from nuekstyles.com/, D-SHoutbox from http://www.invisionize.com/, and much more.. As you have found my site is heavely moded. What does ipbnuke do?Ipbnuke completely relys on ipb for the logging in and registering of users. So you login and out with ipb. Its great. And the ipb members table in the database is feeded of by ipbnuke, so all my account modules, etc are still used!DisadvantagesA lack in modules, themes and login blocks are available for ipbnuke, so you must get Holbrookau (the owner of ipbnuke) to convert them, or if you pm me about themese you want converted I can convert them. This is because the themes and login blocks have to be converted to not use the default phpbb forum location and have full paths. I highly reccomend any of you wiht limited knowledge in programming check ipbnuke out!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
