Installing shoutboxphp is very simple. I thought of sharing the procedure:
//Here we are making the shoutbox color fields, and tables.
shoutbox.php
Make sure you have the database called "config.php"
<?php include("sfield.php"); ?>
<?php include("config.php"); ?>
<?php //This part is where it shows "Admin CP" and "View Full Shoutbox"
?>
<span class="style1">
<a href="/administratorcp">Admin CP</a> | </span> <a href="viewfullsbox.php">View Full Shoutbox
</a>
| <a href="index.php">Refresh
</a>
</form></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="32" valign="top"><p class="style3"><?php
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM shoutbox order by id DESC LIMIT 5")
or die(mysql_error());
echo "<table border='0'>";
// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
// Print out the contents of each row into a table
echo "<tr><td>";
echo $row['username']; echo ": "; echo $row['message'];
echo "</tr><td>";
echo "</hr></tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
</p></td>
</tr>
</table>
sfield.php
//All that does is displays the shoutbox but we need it to add the shouts and display the fields.
<?php require_once("config.php"); ?>
<style type="text/css">
<!--
.style3 {color: #000000}
body,td,th {
color: #000000;
}
-->
</style>
<table width="838" border="1" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#EAF9E3" cellspacing="0">
<!--DWLayoutTable-->
<tr>
<td width="834" height="32" valign="top"><form name="form1" method="post" action="addshout.php">
<label>
<input name="username" width="335" type="text" id="username" value="Username">
</label>
<label>
<input name="message" width="335" type="text" id="message" value="Message">
</label>
<label>
<input type="submit" name="submit" width="500" id="submit" value="Shout">
</label>
addshout.php
//Now here is what adds the shout:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function delayer(){
window.location = "index.php"
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="setTimeout('delayer()', 0)">
<?php require_once("shoutbox.php"); ?>
<?php require_once("config.php"); ?>
<?php
$username = $_POST['username'];
$message = $_POST['message'];
mysql_query("INSERT INTO shoutbox(username, message) VALUES('$username', '$message')")
or die(mysql_error()); ?>

Go into PHPMYADMIN n and create table called: shoutbox
Then make the fields:
id
username
message
