first things first, NEVER post up your password.

and where did you get this script, it might help me make sure i got things correct.

Code:

function __connect() {
mysql_connect(ruwan, CONFIG_SQL_DBUSER, 789)
or die ('Could not connect: '.mysql_error());
$this->setDBName(shout);
$this->Query("SET CHARACTER SET utf8;");
}

where it says "CONFIG_SQL_DBUSER" just put in your username that you use to access the db. I couldn't do that for you since you didn't supply it

Usually usernames for free hosting are [your_cpanel_login_username]_[user_you_created].
For example, mine is: mason_mason
Not sure if that will help.
By the way, you might want to edit the post with your password.

i need to add shout box to my site i got code from
http://www.flashdevs.com/shout_box/features/

i made mysql database also but others very complicated

i dont have php knowledge

this is instalation help

Installation:

STEP 1: Install server side scripts to your server

1. Copy server and js folders to the web server where you are going to install shoutbox;

2. Execute dump.sql script in your database admin panel in order to create necessary databases for shoutbox;

3. Change login and password in server/php/settings.php file for accessing to your database.
Open this file and find the code:
define('CONFIG_SQL_DBUSER', login);
define('CONFIG_SQL_DBPASSWORD', password);

In the code:
login (String, required) specifies login to your database;
password (String, required) specifies password to your database;

STEP 2: Include the SWFObject JavaScript library in the head of your HTML page
<head>
<title>Your Page Title</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<script type="text/javascript" src=swjobjectUrl></script>
</head>

In the code:
swjobjectUrl (String, required) specifies the URL of swfobject.js file.

STEP 3: Shoutbox is embedded in HTML page using SWFObject with the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF(swfURL, id, width, height, version, bgColor);
so.addVariable("serverURL", serverURL);
so.addVariable("refreshTime", refreshTime);
so.write("id");
</script>

In the code:
swfUrl (String, required) specifies the URL of shoutbox SWF file;
id (String, required) specifies the id of the HTML element (containing your alternative content) you would like to have replaced by shoutbox;
width (String, required) specifies width in pixels of shoutbox;
height (String, required) specifies height in pixels of shoutbox;
version (String, required) specifies the Flash player version your SWF is published for (format is: "major.minor.release");
bgColor (String, required) specifies HEX color of shoutbox background;
serverURL parameter – relative to path to shoutbox.php server file;
refreshTime specifies time in seconds for refreshing shoutbox;
Edit:
3. Change login and password in server/php/settings.php file for accessing to your database.
Open this file and find the code:
define('CONFIG_SQL_DBUSER', login);
define('CONFIG_SQL_DBPASSWORD', password);

In the code:
login (String, required) specifies login to your database; (what is string,required ? )
password (String, required) specifies password to your database;

I chage that

define('CONFIG_SQL_DBUSER', database user name);
define('CONFIG_SQL_DBPASSWORD', password database password);

STEP 2: Include the SWFObject JavaScript library in the head of your HTML page
<head>
<title>Your Page Title</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<script type="text/javascript" src=swjobjectUrl></script>
</head>

In the code:
swjobjectUrl (String, required) specifies the URL of swfobject.js file.

I change this
create new html file
<script src="shoutbox/js/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

STEP 3: Shoutbox is embedded in HTML page using SWFObject with the following code:
<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF(swfURL, id, width, height, version, bgColor);
so.addVariable("serverURL", serverURL);
so.addVariable("refreshTime", refreshTime);
so.write("id");
</script>

Ichange this

<script type="text/javascript">
swfobject.embedSWF("shoutbox/shoutbox.swf");
width=300
height=500
bgcolor='#FF5400'
so.addVariable("shoutbox/server/php/shoutbox.php");
so.addVariable("2");
so.write("id");
</script>

but my shout box not working

okay, I don't really know the heirarchy for your files, but im pretty sure you don't need the public_html

**diabolo** · 06-28-2009 09:27 AM

i think you need to place
<script type="text/javascript">
so.addVariable("shoutbox/server/php/shoutbox.php");
swfobject.registerObject("FlashID");
</script>

before this

<object id="FlashID" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="500" height="375">

so that javascript can flash before it runs to user shoutbox.php as server

but then again Im not good with JS/Flash interactions

**sen01dj** · 06-30-2009 12:43 AM

define('CONFIG_SQL_DBHOST', 'localhost');
