@OP: Whether this is homework or not doesn't matter. The fact is, you've shown no effort. If you want someone to do it for you, post it in the job offers forum. Be prepared to offer some remuneration.

@Alias: Please try to learn the difference between plurality and possessive uses of the English language. In particular, you do not use an apostrophe for non-possessive plurals (or present tense verbs). The fact you used plurals correctly in the first portion of your post shows you have the English skills to do so.

As for your beef with ReggaetonKing's post, it's not about post count. It's about a fair exchange of ideas, rather than being a leech who does nothing but take. It's one thing to be a novice and not have a lot of experience with which to offer help to others. It's another thing entirely to join a forum, not bother to follow proper etiquette by posting an introduction, and demand to be the beneficiary of the labors of others. That's just rude, and post count only enters into it in that since the OP only has the one post, 100% of his/her posts are composed of such rudeness.

Oh snap, it's a PFers Vs. DWers (ProgrammingForumers vs. DaniWebbers). lol sorry I just couldn't resist. This is like Lexington and Concord all over again.

PFers, what is your profession!?!?
Aoooooooooooh.

@OP: I've designed the backend for a forum in PHP, and I'm not entirely sure how you would separate the backend from the frontend as you need to code your backend to output the HTML. Perhaps with some sort of XML sheet, but other than that I got no clue. Lest what you're referring to is simply styling the forum via CSS which has nothing to do with the HTML markup. If you're looking for forums written in Python just go to www.hotscripts.com and search around. There are lots of open source forums out there on the web (shoooooooot I'm making one).

Hehe. This made me laugh nearly as hard as that avatar I saw a while back (might have been here). It was the 'caution, wet floor' icon (the yellow triangle with the guy falling), with a new stick figure drawn in that was kicking the original, with the words 'THIS IS SPARTA!' scribbled over top.

Okay guys!

WOW two pages already!

Anyways, I am not good enough to write a forum in python, and my teacher said that I could use someone else's backend, as long as I made the frontend myself.

Please provide,

Thanks in advance,

You are right lectricpharoah, my deepest apologies are offered to you for the offense caused by my bad english skills.

As a side note to put minds at rest, I never was nor will be a member of DaniWeb.

Panarchy, no one is going to write a forum backend for you unless you pay them to do so. I suggest you do what grimpirate suggested and look for open source forum software. Sourceforge.net is an excellent resource.

Panarchy

Do you know of an open source one already?

I tried phpBB, but I couldn't really understand the source code. I am looking for a backend (only a few files) that contain all the information that allows a forum to work (backend).

Sourceforge is a huge site, it would take me way too long to find one that I am looking for.

If anyone can think of one, please tell me!

Thanks in advance,

Panarchy

ReggaetonKing

Hm..search! BTW, a forum isn't just a few files.
