Hi there

I need help with the GuideML Forum Box; Essentially, I would like to put a forum box on my page so that users can type in questions, press 'post' and the questions will appear in new threads in the 'Ask h2g2' forum.

My problem is as follows; Here is the code:





Now, the 'forum#' in line 1 is self explanatory, but what do the values for 'thread#' and 'reply#' in lines 2 and three respectively need to be in order to create new threads? Any help you are able to offer would be much appreciated!

Thank you.

Just for future reference, the 'official' place for GuideML help is at Bruce's Clinic, http://www.h2g2.com/A187229 , but you're always free to ask around anywhere, including here.

What you need to do is create the threads you want to link to, and then get the thread and forum numbers from that link. Does that make sense, or do I need to explain further?
