hi. I have been trying to create a very simple add comment feature in flash for a flash site im making. Kinda like the forums on [jeroenwijering.com](http://jeroenwijering.com) ([clicky](http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?forum=All)) but even simpler! All i want to do is system where you can add a comment with a name on the top. No need for smilies or anything like that… just a simple system with name and comment, (anything else i want i could probably figure out how to do myself) I have been trying to do this with little success :(… (mainly to do with my lack of flash knowledge). I searched the forums and google, but all i could find were much more complicated blog systems that i did not understand. So i would greatly appreciate it if someone helped me! And if you do decide to help, a quick explanation of the code would be very nice, so that i can edit the code for my own needs :). Thanks in advance! ¬tpspoons ---

1 question: How/where do you want this comment to be shown? In a text box or text field on the page somewhere? You could just use a type of guestbook entry to accomplish this. I have something like that we could modify to only show what was typed in the main comment box, then display it on your page. ---

I made one just for you. Let me know what size it needs to be and I’ll post it. ---

hi. thanks azwebdesigns! either 415 pixels wide or 220 pixels wide would be great! ---

ok tpspoons, Here is one that’s 220px wide. I think it’s too small but it works fine. Even if it’s not exactly what you had in mind, you should be able to see what I did and modify it. Let me know if you like it! See the 220px file demo: [http://www.azpyro.com/phptest/comment/comment.html](http://www.azpyro.com/phptest/comment/comment.html) See the 400px file demo: [http://www.azpyro.com/phptest/comment.html](http://www.azpyro.com/phptest/comment.html) \*\*I think it looks better at 415px and could do that if you need. ---

no all it means is that atm we are using a free hoster, but as soon as the site is done we will buy a hosting package, (which will support php), so then it will work. ---

ok well ive been spending some time trying to mess around with this, and i was just wondering, how would you go abouts making it so that when you add a comment, instead of it adding a “----------------------------” between each comment it will create a new box. Do you get what i mean? thanks again. ---

Add a new box where? It’s not going to act like a ‘forum post’ for instance. Know what I mean? Explain a bit more what you want to do.
