How to Insert a Flash Guestbook

1. Sign up for a flash guestbook at http://flash-guestbook.com. Since their code may not be modified in anyway, it make it a little more difficult. When it asks you what page the guestbook will be on, make it http://yoururl.com/documents/flashguestbook.htm.

 

2. Download the flash SWF file and upload it to the documents on your site.

 

3. Copy the code from flash-guestbook and paste it into notepad or a HTML editor and save it as "flashguestbook.htm" and upload it to the documents on your website. Remember this is the page that the guestbook MUST be on.

 

4. There are two ways you can do this, 1. Just create a link on your site to the "documents/flashguestbook.htm" or use IFRAME to actually "place" the guestbook on your site. For linking just place a link on your page to /documents/flashguestbook.htm.  If you want to place the guestbook on one of your pages, paste the following code into your website, replacing "http://yoururl.com/documents/yourflashguestbook.htm" with the location of the guestbook.htm file created above.

 

<iframe src="http://yoururl.com/documents/yourflashguestbook.htm" width="750px" height="700px" frameborder="0" marginwidth ="0px" marginheight="0px" scrolling="no"></iframe>

Note: You may have to change the Height and Width.
