but I guess my question is whats the best way to use it for? or how to make use of it?
I sat there with another admin trying to figure that but .....
I thought I'd just use the email part to make it like site comments or whatever
but why use that to post in the forum when we have the normal posing way or even quick posting too?
I am sorry I am not tryin to say anything other than wanting some ideas to make use of the script as I do like it
Thanks

I'll tell you what I'm going to use it for (as soon as I can figure out how to add a redirect).

My website is automotive themed, and we have a couple Tech forums, where members come to ask advice on how to fix various problems that they are having with their vehicles. A common problem that we see is when a member doesn't give important information when they are starting a thread. There have been times when all they'll say is: "My car runs crappy. What's wrong with it?" They forget that we may not know their Make/Model/Year, etc. For a couple years now, I've wanted to have a form that needs to be filled out in order to make a post in that forum, so that I could tell them specifically what info is needed.
I don't know what your forum is about, but perhaps you could find a similar use for this wonderful hack.

Attached is a pic of my form page.
Take care,
