Most guest books are text files that are parsed by the guest book page and displayed. You can use ASP and the TextStream object with the FileSystemObject to write to text files as each person adds entries. Then, your guestbook page can open the text file, separate it out by something (say each new guestbook entry started with a ~~) and then write it out as such.
Your other option would be to use a database and just store the guestbook entries in a table there.
That should get you started. If you need more info., try doing searches for FileSystemObject and TextStream object. Harold Blackorby
