Lorenzo,
Voertaal hier is Engels, de meeste mensen begrijpen anders niet wat je bedoelt.
Ok, back to English:
Installing shouldn't be that difficult.
You start by reading the readme.txt and we'll help you from there.
First you need a host that supports Active Server Pages (ASP).
1) Do you have a host that does that ?
Then you need to decide what database to use, if you don't know otherwise you'll probably use Access.
Depending on the host the database file that is in the zipfile needs to be uploaded to a specific directory, usually called something like db or database or fpdb
2) Do you know what database you are going to use and where to place it ?
Then you need to edit 1 file: config.asp
In that file you need to change only 2 lines.
3a) If you are going to use Access, remove the ' in front of the line the says:
strDBType = Access
3b) Now also remove the ' in front of this line and edit it so it points to the correct directory:
strConnString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/fpdb/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 97
That last step might be the only difficult one, but if you can't get that to work, just tell us what the problem is by replying to the topic here and we'll take you through that next step.
