Hi,

I have a requirement for using vb for product reviews on my site. The way it would work is....

On the external html pages (i.e. the product page in my shop) I have a link which says "See Comments". This link would be something like:

http://blah.com/forums/prodreview.pl?PID=12345&F=4&NAME=Some%20Widget

The PID and NAME will be supplied by my software when the page is created and the F for forum that the product review will be in.

This link will then look at that forum and if there is a thread named PID then it will display the thread as normal. If the thread doesnt exist (e.g. because there are no comments) then it will create a thread with the PID and something like "Please leave a comment about 'Some Widget'" as the first post.

Is something like this possible?

Thanks,
Paul.
