Subject: Just tried adding mod, but coming up with errors
Hi, First I'd really like to thank you for creating such a cool & easy to use guestbook...even for  web/php newbies like me!
I attempted to add the antispam modificationusing a simple word... everything started out OK but now when I click on addentry.php I come up with some pretty scary (to me) error messages. Can you help me fix?
Here is my site & the problems

Thanks so much, Paul

The error message is saying that it cannot find th eadd.class.php file that should be in the lib folder. Maybe you accidentally renamed it? Look in the lib folder to see if it is there but renamed. If not check that it's not been moved to a different folder somehow.

Thanks for responding so quickly. I looked in the lib folder and found a file that's named add.class.php.up should I rename it add.class.php?
Thanks!

Can this be made case-sensitive?

Just replace
} elseif (strtolower($this->bottest) != strtolower($this->bottestanswer)) {

with
} elseif ($this->bottest != $this->bottestanswer) {
in add.class.php

Subject: help!
Like everyone else, I was about to scrap the guestbook, until I found this site. I added the simple anti-spam modification and then added this one. Now I get the following error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/sue/public_html/guestbook/lib/add.class.php on line 206


Line 206-211 are:

    if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc())
 Â    {
 Â     $this->bottest = addslashes($this->bottest);
 Â     $this->bottestanswer = addslashes($this->bottestanswer);
 Â    }
 if ($this->name == "") {

I just cut and pasted what you had. Any ideas?

Thanks!

The error could be on the line previous such as removing the ;

Anyway if you are using 2.3.4 you can goto www.carbonize.co.uk/AG and download the pre modded files.

Subject: Thanks for the great security update!!
This little piece of code has saved me a lot of suffering; as, the spambot had swarmed into my guestbook and nailed it good.

Cheers,
