anyone of you clever hack dudes here tell me where i am going wrong because i love this hack and want it on my forums ....

Check that in shoutbox_postshout that you have shoutbox.php as the filename in the form, if you have changed the name change it there.

If not, do you have IIS? And do the shouts appear in the shoutbox?

ill just take a quick look m8 thanks

this is exactly what i have in the template

<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="0" {tableinnerextra} width="100%">
<form action="/shoutbox.php" method="post" name="vbform">
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="shout">

<tr>
<td bgcolor="{tableheadbgcolor}" width="100%"><normalfont color="{tableheadtextcolor}"><b>Shout, Shout...Let It All Out</b></normalfont></td>
</tr>
</table>

<table cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0" border="0" {tableinnerextra} width="100%">
<tr bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}">
<td width="100%"><normalfont><b>Your Shout:</b></normalfont> &nbsp; <smallfont><b>[ <a href="$bburl/misc.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=showsmilies" class="small" target="_blank">Smilies</a> - <a href="$bburl/misc.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=bbcode" class="small" target="_blank">vB Code</a> ]</b></smallfont>
<br/><textarea name="message" rows="10" cols="60" class="bginput" wrap></textarea>
<br/>$smiliebits</td>
</tr>

<tr bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}">
<td width="100%"><input type="submit" name="comment_submit" value="Shout Now!" class="bginput" accesskey="s"></td>
</tr>

</form>
</table>

And you have the shoutbox.php file in the forums directory?
