encrypting guestbook posts

[Nobody/Anonymous]

Hi all, I have got soupermail up and running without too much hassle, had to learn editing the soupermail.pl file from in ssh using vi as the only prob I had seemed to be with carriage returns or something after editing it in dreamweaver and uploading... anyway all is great now :)

So what I am trying to figure out now is how to use a combination of the 'guestbook' and the 'reftest' example scripts... I currently have them both working fine individually but wish to combine them so that a user can type in a message, select to encrypt it then send, the success page then leads to the guestbook which displays their encrypted message (that I can pick up using the key) this is to also send the email as the guestbook usually does with the encrypted message... I have managed to get it to send a variable for the subject line to the guestbook and the email also, just not sure how to combine the configuration lines from both scripts into one?

I am on a server with php and mysql if that helps with any ideas...

any advice much appreciated :)

Jon.

You can't combine the configuration lines, however you can rewrite the config files so that they do the same thing in one file.

cheers, (thought I'd register now) I've managed to get the guestbook to display the pgp encrypted text on the guestbook page but it is the whole template table as well instead of just the text from the form encrypted within the template... getting there, but I'm a novice so it's just mostly guesswork, but hey I suppose we learn from trial and error :) my configuration file is currently as below...

______________________________

# What file to save to
fileto: /counters/guestbook.php

# make sure its viewable from the web
filereadable: yes

# make sure new entries appear at the top of the guestbook
fileattop: yes

# what to use as a file header
headings: guesthead.txt

# what to use as a file footer
footings: guestfoot.txt

# what template to use for the guestbook file
filetemplate: guesttpl.txt

# What template to use on success
success: guestbook.txt

# subject line to appear in emails and journal entries
subject : "$subject"

# Removes the footer info in emails i.e. browser and ip etc
nomailfooter : yes

# if encryption has been selected
if: encrypt eq "yes" then filepgpuserid: me@myemail.com

if: pgpversion eq "gpg" then pgpversion: gpg

# If a confirmation email is needed, make sure they have put in an email
# and the appropriate templates are used
if : (confirm) then required: Email
if : (confirm) then mailto: "$form_Email"
if : (confirm) then mailtemplate: guestmail.txt
Subject : "$form_subject"

# see if old entries are to be cleaned out
if : (clearold) then filemaxbytes: 1

the template file used to format the posts, specified in the configuration file above as filetemplate: guesttpl.txt is as below

I guess I need to have the encrypted 'message' text appear where <output name="message" type="html" newline="html"> is....

any advice?... hugely appreciate it
