Mungkin anda sudah tau apa itu shoutbox dan apa kegunaan dari shoutbox, karena untuk saat ini hampir semua website atau blog memasang yang namanya shoutbox dan banyak juga shoutbox-shoutbox gratis yang bisa langsung kita pasang pada website atau blog kita.
Namun kali ini saya tidak akan membahas bagaimana cara mendaftarkan ke alamat situs penyedia shoutbox-shoutbox gratis yang dapat langsung dapat kita pasang pada website / blog kita,tetapi kita akan membahas bagaimana cara membuat shoutbox sendiri. caranya ikuti langkah-langkah yang ada pada artikel di bawah ini.

Nama database yang saya buat adalah fr_system
Buat table pada database anda dengan nama shoutbox

atau anda bisa juga membuat tabel dengan perintah SQL :

CREATE   TABLE   `shoutbox`   (
`id`   INT (   10   )   NOT   NULL   AUTO_INCREMENT   PRIMARY   KEY   ,
`name`   VARCHAR (   20   )   NOT   NULL   ,
`ip`   VARCHAR (   15   )   NOT   NULL   ,
`message`   TEXT   NOT   NULL   ,
`date`   VARCHAR (   20   )   NOT   NULL
)   ENGINE   =   MYISAM   ;

Atau dengan PHPMyadmin dengan cara membuka alamat http://localhost/phpmyadmin

## Jika sudah selesai buat file config.php untuk koneksi ke database

<?php
$db_host = "localhost";
$db_name = "fr_system";
$db_user = "root";
$db_pass = "";
$max_length = 150;
$dmessage = 20;
?>

## Dan buat file lagi dengan nama shoutbox.php

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function addsmiley(code) {
var pretext = document.forms['shoutbox_form'].shoutbox_message.value;
this.code = code;
document.forms['shoutbox_form'].shoutbox_message.value = pretext + code;
}
//-->
</script>

<style type="text/css">
/* Belows is the CSS file with some comments, edit it to your likings. */
/* This is to "trap" all shoutbox message into one content box */

div.shoutbox {
background: #F5F5F5;
padding: 5px;
width: 160px;
height: 120px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
overflow: auto;
color: #000000;
font: normal 10px verdana,tahoma,arial }
/* Smiley with no border and a cursor pointer */
img.smileys {
border: 0;
cursor: pointer; }
/* Just some styling... */
#shoutbox-message { width: 240px }
strong {
color: #000000;
font: bold 10px verdana,tahoma,arial }
/* Dont remove this style property or the messages wont display properly! */
ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
color: #000000;
font: normal 10px verdana,tahoma,arial; }
/* This is just to make the form looks nice */
.shoutinput {
padding: 0px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
background-color: #F5F5F5;
color: #000000;
font: normal 10px verdana,tahoma,arial; }
.shouttextarea {
padding: 0px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
background-color: #F5F5F5;
color: #000000;
font: normal 10px verdana,tahoma,arial; }
</style>

Lalu buat folder dengan nama smileys dan letakkan file-file emoticon di folder ini.
Simpan semua file lalu jalankan. Dan lihat hasilnya
