Yo! I'm thinking of writing a bulletin board and I wonder about threads. I want the board to be built on threads but I don't know how to do it.

Just keep track of a parent message number. You should be able to use that one field to trace any message back to a root message. And with that information, you should be able to build a "thread".

I concur on that. However, I am more fond of the UBB/vBulletin style of threads, personally. - Kath - Original Message - From: "Boget, Chris" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "'Jimmy Bckstrm'" [EMAIL PROTECTED]; "PHP General List" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2001 4:57 PM Subject: RE: [PHP] Create a Bulletin Board Yo!

RE: [PHP] Create a Bulletin Board
I don't know of any PHP bulletin boards that use flat files. I database is far better for storing data like this anyway. Ever seen a UBB board with over 1,000,000 posts? Doing a simple search on it crashes the server... The next version of phpBB will have support for MySQL, Postgres, MSSQL, ODBC and Oracle. - James -Original Message- From: Richard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: March 20, 2001 3:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Create a Bulletin Board Do you know anyone that doesn't use MySQL?
