Can anyone suggest some good articles to explore the psychology within.... such as security.

I am also stuck up on:

dude.. i guess u need to create a new table for every thread.. there shd be some knda notation in the name u giv for each table.. like tab1, tab2 etc.. so that u can use a intger variable of the form
TABLE NAME = "tab" + c

This way u can show all the threads in the table..

I dont think u can deletion shd be a probn if u know the SQL commands..!

btw dont have any idea on asp, u may visit *www.instant-cms.com/

How do I logout a user. I mean if I use cookies... the user will be logged out as soon as he closes the browser. But if I want him to logout without clod\sing the browser what should I do??? Pls help with cookies.
Also if the user wants to be automatically logged in on every visit then??? How do I keep a track of this through cookies and yet log him out?

S

Dude.. U can set the life time of a cookie (or expiry time).. you can create a con-expiring cookie so that whnevr the user logs in he will be taken insid.e.

Ok, now to log somone out as soon as he closes the browser, u need to do event handling.. u have various events, and when (this can be done in java script also).. onClose or somethin like that u can delete or set the cookie value to NULL..

Have a look at this site : *www.aspin.com/home/tutorial/applicat/bbs

They have provided ready to use ASP Forums. These forums are easily customisable. If not the entire forums, you can refer to the code & incorporate it into your forum. Hope it helps!

if php is so cul....... can ne1 gimme some good tutorials.
Actually i have 2-3 buks on asp n a lot of tuts. So i go with it.
PHP seems to b just like C.???
Wel i won't mind going with it.
But only is i get a tut with the right psyche to go with it.

A small idea...
You can keep track of the user using cookies.To log in/out use session variables.To logout ,just a session.end or session.abandon will do.
If you are interested in learning PHP, visit hudzilla.org
I think you won't get a better resource!!!!

Was just wondering if i cud fing a whole tutorial with php n mysql in one download!

I would suggest download one forum like phpbb and study it...
you might not find exact tutorial for forums but you will find tutorials for diff things like interting values in db, useing cookies or sessions, using joins, using classes and functions

and after reaing all these you need to applpy your login draw a plan and start working...

check these sites

*www.phpfreaks.com
*www.hotscripts.com

download php software and manual from here *www.php.net

PM me if you need ebook Teach yourself PHP in 24 hours.
