Guestbook

[nets]

I'm coding a guestbook using PHP and JavaScript.
I want to have some sort of BB code and display stats about the guestbook at the bottom. Once I've made the script I'll post it on here so you can all use it (if you want, not that you will).

I haven't been working on it long, but I'll post some of it:

<?PHP
$filename = "datafile.txt";
$date = date('D,M,Y');
$open = fopen($filename, 'r+');
$datecheck = fread($open, 1);
    if($datecheck=="")
    {
    $createdate = "$date\n";
    fwrite($open, $createdate);
    echo "Thanks for choosing to use this guestbook, refresh the page and it *should* be ready to use.";
    exit;
    };
fclose($open);

$file = file($filename);
  foreach($file as $key => $rowdata)
  {
  $data[$key] = explode("|", $rowdata);
  $ents++;
  }
$ents--;
while($row < sizeof($file))
  {
  /*Data out puts*/
  $row++;
  };

Just for testing purposes:

echo 'Created on: '.$data[0][0].'<br />';
echo "Current entries: $ents";

I think you've took the long way around designing this,
All it really needs is one form to submit the data into the mysqlt
And about 7 lines of php code to display the data from the table

BBcode and a admin panel would be pretty easy to add

I don't want to use MySQL.
