==================================
= about ==========================
==================================
tagBox is a simple and functional 
tagger/shoutbox script written in 
PHP. It uses a text file to store 
posts so it doesn't require any 
MySQL database. This databse is 
protected with simple encryption 
and an htcaccess. It is made to be 
easily customized and has many 
options and features such as 
html limitation, smileys, flood 
protection, word bans, ip bans, 
and more.

==================================
= license ========================
==================================
You are free to use and modify this
script any way you like. You can
even put it up as a download on
your own site as long as this
readme file is along with it. I'd
also like it if the link back to
me stayed. I deserve some credit.

Enjoy tagBox!

==================================
= installation ===================
==================================
 1. unzip and upload the tagbox/
    folder to your website.
 2. CHMOD db.txt and online.txt to 
    666. If you don't know how, 
    use google :P
 3. Open up config.php in any text
    editor and edit the settings
    however you want.
 4. Upload the modified config.php
 5. Add the following code to your
    webpage where you want it to
    appear:

<iframe src="tagbox/" width="135" height="400" frameborder="0" border="0"></iframe>

    Feel free to change the width
    and height attributes, but any
    width lower than 135 will not
    look very good with scrollbars
 
  You're done. Enjoy your tagbox.

==================================
= usage ==========================
==================================
Adding Smileys -
 - To add smileys, just upload
   GIF files to the smileys folder
   and the script will automaticly
   include them.

Admin Panel -
 - Click the A(admin) link on your
   tagbox and enter your password.
   From here you can delete and
   modify posts.

Customizing Colors/Style -
 - Copy default.css and make a new
   css file based on it with your
   own styles. Then you can set
   the script to use this new css
   file inside config.php

Customizing Texts -
 - Edit them inside the lang.php
   file. Everything is there.

   a language pack file (lang.php)
   to make it easier to translate
   into other languages. No other
   additions to the script were
   made, so an upgrade is not 
   neccessary.
