CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,
I have a guestbook script that I would like to include it's entry into my cms pages.  I set up the user defined tag as {guestbook}.  In it, I wrote something like: Then in the template page, I inserted the {guestbook} tag.  But when I preview the page, I get an error message reading: I double checked the coding and tested it with a regular html web page and the guestbook stats show up at my website perfectly fine but it won't work with cms script.  What steps am I missing? 

Have you looked in the Documentation, it's in the tab up top.

I'm not so good with code unless it's html or CSS.

just make sure your included scripts aren't re-using the $db bariable that may cause you grief.

Hi Mark,
I did read the documentation.  That is why I am not sure what went wrong.

Hi Calguy1000,
Can you please be more specific as to what you mean by reusing $db Variable?  Or should I post the codes of the 2 included files here online?
Thanks.

CMSMS already has a variable called $db, representing the (ADOdb) database connection.
If your code also uses a (/re-uses the) (global) $db variable it gets overwritten so the queries get sent to the wrong db and the table cannot be found.
