Agreed... it will be difficult to make reliable, and most importantly, secure forum software if you're in the beginning phases of PHP.

While I admire your optimism, I've been doing PHP/ MySQL from whenever the first Money Code I made was released (around jan '08) and I wouldn't dare try to create my own forum. I just don't know enough to make it reliable or secure. Try your hand in smaller projects at first. Ben, one of the former support members at ZB first started with a guestbook system (iirc) and I started with money codes and now onto the AIO etc. Try something similar, like a poll system for example to get some practice.

The purpose isn't to make professional-grade bulletin board software, but to try your hand at something new (and rather large / complicated) and hopefully learn a few things along the way.

It doesn't have to be reliable or secure to serve as a learning experience, fyi.

That's true, but if you're going to make something like that, why not make it reliable and secure? Learning just what that entails is a good experience too. :P

P.S.: If mysql_real_escape_string was all it took to make something secure, then you wouldn't hear about these various hacks that people do. There is a whole lot more to security than defending against SQL injections.

You can make it however you want to, he can make it however he wants to. He's learning so let him learn.
