Guestbook header image

Anonymous — GMT

There is a missing image mark at the very top of the page, I assume some image is missing from the installatio - that was done by my host. Also, I would like to add my site image in that place but can find our how to do this.

Also, by the guests that have commented there are missing image marks where the guest name etc. is show - any idea how to repair this?

A quick search using the [b]search[/b] function of this forum would of revealed that your problem was that you need to specify the base url in the config.inc.php file found in the admin folder. As for changing it look in templates/body.php

All ready tried that

Thanks for the reply Carbonize but I already tried what you recommended. Firstly the server/host admin. installed the guestbook. When I had trouble I downloaded a version from this site and reinstalled following the instructions - I change the URL;

$GB_PG["base_url"] = "htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook/img"

but I got the following:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/stevenx/public_html/guestbook/admin/config.inc.php on line 61

I known some basics on HTML but no idea about php or how to solve that error.

All the other programs installed by the host admin. work fine.

Well that is the situation.

If I look at the source of guestbook's main page (body) via on line using explorer it shows;

If I type htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook/img/gbook.gif - in exploer then I can see that specific gif in explorer.

I wonder why the images are not showing in the guestbook?

I have tried all sorts of ideas but still the result is unchanged.

By the way I clear the cashe after each test so the browser is showing the latest version.

Any ideas to point me in the right direction would really help.

Cheers
Steven

I think it should be:
[code]$GB_PG["base_url"] = "htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook[/code]

See the following post:

Admin config.inc.php file:

Tried but didn't work

Thanks Amber 222

Actually I tried both and they both didn't work, i.e.;

$GB_PG["base_url"] = "htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook"

$GB_PG["base_url"] = "htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook/img"

the latter was following instructions in the text file in the installation.

When I look at the source code for the page live in Explorer it shows the route to the images as correct; e.g.

when I call the address via Exporer - htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook/img/gbook.gif - the gif is loaded.

It really doesn't makes sence; as I mentioned I clear the cashe before each test so the page is current.

Well if anyone can advise how to clear this it sure would help.

Thanks

I copied and pasted from your previous post, but I am just now noticing the "htpp". Is this just a typo here in this forum? Check to make sure your base url is actually using "http".

amber222 — GMT

Yep, that seems to be the problem:

[code]theURL = 'htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook/picture.php?img='+Image;[/code]

It should be http:

[code]$GB_PG["base_url"] = "http://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook";[/code]

Yep Your Right

Hi Amber,

Your were right on.

Actually I didn't touch this part; i.e. htpp.

I just changed from $GB_PG["base_url"] = "htpp://www.yourdomain.com/guestbook/img" to $GB_PG["base_url"] = "htpp://www.stevenredhead.com/guestbook"

Just now I checked the download and the original file has htpp; I just didn't notice it. It is difficult for new users of php like myself to distinguish what is OK and what is not, I think I would have notice normally; so thank you for the advise and direction.

Well thanks a million for finding this it really has helped now I can see all the images just fine - real majic.

Yes some of the original instructions are badly written. The [b]htpp [/b]is one mistake as is having the [b]img [/b]at the end of the url example.

Well I am in a different time zone, so I was taking zzzzzzz....

My emotions are all mixed up now, I appreciate you telling me about the vulnerability of the Guest Book and Forum; yet on the other hand flustrated that you let anyone else visiting the forums know also.

I ran the same programs on my last site for over 5 years without any issues, so now the world knows the vulnerabilities I need to find some way tp solve this.

The world new about this vulnerability long before this. It isnt anything that is new. And as far as the html exploit. I dont know if there is a fix for this or not. Carb maybe working on something but I'm not real sure. As to the other exploit that is an easy fix.

Carbonize — GMT

The SQL injection exploit has actually been around since 2002 from what I can gather. I assume it was only recently that kiddies with no life discovered it on the net. As for the HTML "exploit" that must of been discovered sometime this year. My fix is to disable html. I have removed the option from the version I am working on. I am also considering removing AGcode as nobody ever seems to use it.

Hi Amber 222,

well I did register and received the notice and verified the account, but up until today I couldn't log in - now however everything is fine regarding logging into the forum.

The Guestbook seems to be OK now, and I updated the header images as per Carbonize's other posting.

Only the update for the email encriptions is pending. May have another crack at it over the holidays using the files you sent me.
