*** You MUST agree to the
*** License.txt file in order
*** to use this software.
http://www.gnu.org/
============
Installation
============
Unzip "tagboard.zip" & "Admin_Panel.zip"
Upload all files to the same directory
From here, you can do either of two things -
1.) Run the install script. (www.yoursite.net/tagboard/install.php)
If you choose to do this, make sure the directory you are installing
to is readable / writeable. I CHMOD the directories to 777, but 666
may work. Also, delete tagit.txt and visitorData.txt - as they
will be created during the install. Once the install run successfully,
your TagIt! Tag Board is ready to go!
==
OR
==
2.) CHMOD tagit.txt and visitorData.txt to 666. This is
important - these files store the data for the board.
Thats pretty much it! The board should work just fine.
If you want to show this tagboard on any
.php document, open index.php in any
text editor such as Notepad -
Copy the code from <form> to </form>
<!-- It's clearly marked for you -->
and paste it in your document
where you want the board to be displayed.
==================
Misc. Requirements
==================
If you choose to have your board on
a page other then index.php - Be
sure to add the javascripts in the
head section of index.php to the
head section of your page!!!!!!!!!
You should be up and running!

If this wasn't a good enough explanation, e-mail me,
paul @ deadlysin3.net,
and please let me know what I need to clarify. Thanks!
===========
Misc. Notes
===========
Please keep in mind that this is a beta release of TagIt!
Tag board, and bugs may exist. If you find any strange
behaviour going on in your board, let me know, and i'll
try to fix it right away. I can be contacted at
paul @ deadlysin3.net - and webmaster @ digital-designs.net.
TagIt! is not dependent on cookies, however it does utilize
them. It uses cookies to save the name a tagger enters, his/her
URL if one was entered, and for the time being, it uses them
for 'flood control'. Also, if cookies are enabled in a users
browser, errors will not be logged - saving disk space.
You will NEED to have cookies enabled in order to access the
admin panel of TagIt! for the time being. I'm slowly but surely
working to use sessions instead.
==================
Matching your site
==================
This should be really easy to do. If you have a little know
how with HTML, just edit the tagit.css file to change the
colors | fonts. Most variables are tucked away in
:: variables.php :: You do not need to edit these unless you
want. I suggest you edit the $filename and $datafile names,
if someone were to know the name of your text files, they
could view all of the boards logged data. Misc. tweaks can
be made from within this file as well.
If you plan on changing colors of the board, you'll need
to edit a few variables in :: variables.php :: also.
================
Tagboard Hosting
================
Need a host for this Tagboard?
E-mail me, I can probably
set you up. What? For free?
Absolutely! Admin Panel is
rendered useless if hosted
remotely.

As businesses grow increasingly dependent upon Web applications to provide services to customers, employees and partners, these complex applications become more difficult to secure. Although traditional security solutions protect Internet infrastructure layers, they do not guard against HTTP and HTML attacks. Many organizations that conduct security testing still deploy applications that allow attackers to manipulate their logic and wreak havoc on their business. To mitigate this risk, development and delivery teams must address Web application security throughout the lifecycle, addressing the many layers detailed in this paper.
