Hi!

This is my first post here.

I want to use a guestbook for my website. I used Yahoo! Small Business hosting provider, but unlike cPanel I can't change permissions for each page anyway I want.

I need to make the .HTML file in that guestbook writable. When I add chmod 666 filename.html to the .HTML it doesn't make it writable.

Is there a solution to this? How can I make the .HTML file writable? Maybe there's something like a code/script that will work (chmod 666 alone doesn't do it).

Thank you.

Yahoo may not allow you to chmod files, if you want to change permissions or use a guestbook, here are 2 options: ask yahoo to change the permissions. or, use a pre-built guestbook (you can get one from bravenet.com)

The statement below is true.

Thank you.

What was interesting, after I posted here I went back to my account in yahoo and it said there that I didn't have to have permissions set for .php files. So I thought, I will save my .html file as a .php file and see what happens. It all started working. Amazing.

I have another question. Do you (or anyone reading this) know of a php script (javascript will do as well) that will open any clickable image on a page (like a thumb, or an ad) in a new window without me adding _new or _blank thingy for every image? You know what I mean?

Any help will be appreciated!
