PyShoutOut Manual

Installation

1. Unzip the downloaded file. You should see a folder labeled pyshoutout and a file named psoinstall.py.
2. Upload the folder and the file to your /cgi-bin/ directory. Make sure that you upload it in ASCII format.
3. Using your FTP program or other, CHMOD (set permissions) of the psoinstall.py file to 755, that is User: Read, Write, Execute; Group: Read, Execute; World: Read, Execute.
4. Go to http://[yourdomain]/cgi-bin/psoinstall.py to setup the script.
5. (Optional) Edit style.css to reflect how you want the font, etc.
6. Paste the following code into an HTML Page:
   
   <iframe name="psoread" src="/cgi-bin/pyshoutout/psoread.py" width="100%" height="370">
   Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.</iframe></p>
   <script language="javascript">
   <!--
   function reset() {
   self.document.psowrte.data.value="";
   self.document.psowrte.data.focus();
   }
   -->
   </script>
   <form method="POST" action="/cgi-bin/pyshoutout/psowrte.py" target="psoread" name="psowrte" onsubmit="setTimeout('reset()',10)">
   <p align="center">
   <b>Name:</b><input type="text" name="name" size="10">&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Message:</b><input type="text" name="data" size="20">&nbsp;&nbsp;
