That is exactly what I need, subdomain + hosting!

I was going to go with some other weird unprofessional looking company but communityarchitect is the perfect solution.

Now I know you probably spent quite a number of hours working around their security, but could you email me the scripts your using to get the sign up? Please? :-)

If you could also email the php file your using for the forms, since I don't know how your integrating the $email with the email formfield, and other matters.

You are a life saver.

P.S. Ooooh, they added the attach file feature, don't need to email me, just zip up the php files, html files, or CGI files your using.

nah havn't got round community architects security yet.

The only way i can think of is somehow getting the images displayed in the screen so the visitor still types them in, but on your form, and then sending the data. It is something i am going to look into in the future but i seriously doubt it will be easy.

communityarchitect gives a graphix with a security code on it every time?
you must enter in the security code to get the accnt?

When I looked on the page there was a security code. Is that something else?

That's the script that they force you to use or something?

I'm kinda confused, the signup works.

yes, the www.signup.ascifi.net is part of their site. It uses my domian name but that is their signup form. I don't want to use their singup form (cos it has horrible questions and mailing lists etc in it) i want people to get an account automatically when they sign up at vbulletin. But, i don't know how to because of the security number type thing they have put in there. If i find a way then i will tell you.

I asked for authorization on ur icq accnt 25499517

How exactly did you use the PHp and html? Did you make a template in Vb, since they allow both php and html variables at once?

or do servers remove all the php related variables when sending the html after processing the file?

Could you attach the sign up page and the page that receives the info so i can reverse work it?

my signup2.php was just a tiny little script to add data to a mysql database, it is just any old form processing script. I used:

just to test it.

$name and $email and $description are what need to be sent to the script by the form, or in our case from the form sent internally by singup.php

You need to remember that signup.php (ie this form thing we included in it) is just mimicking any old normal form, like the one you are typing here. I could for example, make a script that sent a form request to vbulletin to post a new thread or something like that, that is all that you are doing.

I will do the ICQ thing when i get on it, i am very sporadic in using it as it wastes far to much of my time :)

So your adding users to the database with the script, while I'll be having them fill out multiple forms transparently.
Interesting... I'll see if it works and get back to you.
