Yes, it will be happening shortly! Over a year in development and testing, I am going to release it and then sit back and let the good times roll! There are some references to PHP 4.3. I always try to keep all history so that's why it's there. Later releases should not be affected. Read on for the changes.

Keep It Simple Guest Book (KISGB) - Change History
Version 5.1.0
2003-05-19 Added functionality to allow moderating of posts. The controls are accessible through the admin screen to either Hide or UnHide the message.
2003-05-02 To be compatable with PHP 4.3.2, all occurences of fwrite($file,'w') have been modified to fwrite('$file,'wb'). Please be aware that your guestbook will be compromised if you don't make this change.
2003-04-21 Added logic to allow quoting of another message when posting a new message. Seems to work ok but it will probably be released as Experimental and the Admin will be able to turn it off.
 Modified several scripts to make sure that the config.php include is the first statement. That way the error_reporting setting will always be in effect.
 Added a new analyzer utility called syschk.php. This script will analyze your KISGB installation and determine if there are any problems with the configuration of KISGB and PHP. This utility should not be left installed! To do so will open your system to hacking attempts!!
 The setting $use_footer was not functioning correctly. Keep in mind that you are not allowed to remove the footer unless prior permission has been received from ME!!! It is a requirement of the license.
 Version 4.3.2 of PHP was causing the updategb.php module to mess up the guestbook. Very ugly! Actually argued with the PHP developer crew to no avail. I modified my code to fix their problem, imo.
2003-04-15 Modified view_private.php and addtogb.php to not translate the msgid to a date and time if msgid<10000.
2003-03-25 Bumped version to 5.1.0 because this contains new features as well as some fixes.
 Added setting ($cursorPlacementInPost) to allow the positioning of the cursor in the Sign Guestbook screen to any valid column name. You can only assign a column that is visible or a javascript error will occur. You should stay with the most common ones like "name email comments". In the config.php file there is a list of the column names as well as in kisgb.csv.php headers.
 Added setting ($defaultNation) to all the pre-selection of a deafault nation/country value. to avoid having to know the exact name and to minimize the spelling error potential, the value of this setting must be the numeric equivalent. In other words, if you look at nation.php, value 0=Select - value 10=Austria, etc.
 Added delete message confirmation screen pop-up.

  • addtogb.php

Version 5.0.2
2003-02-08 Added new smilie - groovy.gif (shamelessly pilfered from fishbone.org :))
2003-02-06 Corrected spelling of macedonia in nations.php
2003-02-04 Added Swedish language pack
 Modified and corrected Russian language pack.
2003-02-02 Bumped version to 5.0.2 because this is a maintenance fix.
 phpNuke Only: Modified prefix for users table to remove hard coded name.
 Modified wordwrap2 function to replicate functionality of ctype_space if ctype_functions aren't enabled.
