[Question] Message Board Software - Posted By Hasuiste (hasuiste) on 4th Mar 08 at 12:00am
Where/ How do you learn to code your own message board software in PHP or a good language for speed and easy URLs?

I would love to code my own software.... anyone have an Idea of how to start? Is there a tutorial for the basic features of the forum to code them?

I don't think there are any tutorials about how to code one no.

You have to be pretty fluent in PHP and mysql first. {Smile}

Ok..... but how/where would I start coding it? I'm learning PHP, but I'm not that good at it.

w3schools is good to start all coding. But other than that, set yourself little 'tasks' to code, when you have coded that, then recode it in a better 'quicker' way.

What exactly do you mean by tables?

MySQL tables?

That requires HTMl and CSS

tizag.com is a good place to start.
