Hi, I'm brand new and an up and coming webmaster. The functionality on this site would be great for a dating service. Does anyone know what technology is used (ASP.NET or Perl/Cgi is my closest guess.)

You might want to start with phpBB, as it is free.

I know a board that is even better than this one uses snitz and its free. Although the webmaster has done some major hacking of it. The site consumes 1.5 gigs of bandwidth a day.

I have a catapult. Give me all of your money (valuables) or I'll fling an enormous rock at your head.

Hi, I'm brand new and an up and coming webmaster. The functionality on this site would be great for a dating service. Does anyone know what technology is used (ASP.NET or Perl/Cgi is my closest guess.)

First of all, welcome! (BTW, are you really a girl? If so, you are one of very few here. Double welcome! )

As for tools used to build this board, if '.../php/something.php?....' part of URL tells you nothing (and you want to learn webmeisterei), I suggest a look at some of these sites:
  • http://www.php.net (the thing began as simple HTML preprocessor... )
  • http://www.zend.com (a company making the living out of free PHP - a lot of free resources there)
  • http://www.apache.org (free http server that runs most of the Web - illustrates the power of Open Source perhaps even better than Linux itself)
  • http://www.zope.org (web application server or content management system, depending on your angle - free, of course)
  • http://www.possl.org (Open Source version of an enterprise-caliber n-tier web-enabled development tool)
These will keep you occupied for months

Have fun!
