[ooo]

This is from my guestbook

<?php

/* database settings */

&#036;GB_DB["dbName"] = "toon-net_agbook3";
&#036;GB_DB["host"]&nbsp; = "localhost";
&#036;GB_DB["user"]&nbsp; = "toon-net_agbook3";
&#036;GB_DB["pass"]&nbsp; = "edited but it was a bunch of numbers and letteres";

this wasnt a download and install... it was like those built in things... you can make guestbooks and forums... just like geocities free guestbook type of thing

From what I know, you obviously require three things here which you have to edit and put it in the config.inc.php file.

You need is:

Your database Name:
(create a new database and put the name here)

host:

(If you are on a server that provides mysql then your host is localhost. You have to find out going into FAQ or contacting them. If they are doing it externally then you have to give the address of the mysql host here.)

username:
(your username for mysql access. Usually it might be different from your normal login to the site)

password:
(password to sql server)

Where is your site hosted? You should find out those things before you proceed.
