Adding a discussion board..

Web Programming113
Please go easy on me.. !! I run a basic website which I can handle quite

well but I have been asked about a memebrs forum for the site, I ran one

using Bravenet but members told me they didn't use it because of the Add's

and Pop ups so I want to make my own using Frontpage Discussion board

wizard, Now heres my questions..



1 Can I add a discussion web to my existing site or do I have to create a

new web (? Subweb )

2 If I have to create a subweb how do I link it from my existing site ?



Any help would be most useful



TIA

Mike

Re:Adding a discussion board..

I just helped someone rig a "snitz" forum up for an intranet situation.

It was fairly easy to do and worked nicely with FrontPage. there are better

out there but not free. ;-)

do you know what kind of server you're on? i.e. windows or UNIX?

Re:Adding a discussion board..

Whether you use discussion web or 3rd party forum type thing..it's best =

to put them in a subweb. You just create a hyperlink to the =

forum/discussion web like you would any other link.
