I think you have created a nice foundation to build on. It appears that you are really trying to learn this on your own which I am all for. Keep up the good work and good luck.

Can you explain that a bit for me, Wil? I'm learning about databases slowly -- what are the issues, and how can I avoid problems?

Be careful with your indexes. Simply indexing all your databases can have an adverse effect in many setups.

I was interested myself, so a quick boo around Google netted me (get it? netted!) the link above which explains it nicely, I think.

Okay, so doing that will just make it query faster?

Is there a techinical explanation that I would care about/understand at all?

Made completely new forums for my site.

And there's a little 'View Source' thing at the bottom so you can see the code that way.

Okay, well.

About the fwriting, the script actually makes all the files for you, similiar to YABBSE. So it opens or creates the files, then writes to then the source, which is contained in the source.php file.
