Extropia's
WebGuestbook is "configurable so that you can specify what your
guestbook file looks like and how the script-generated responses are
displayed. Most of the configuration takes little more than a knowledge
of HTML, so it is fairly easy to use. If configured to do so, WebGuestbook
will email the guestbook administrator the text of new entries as
well as add them to the guestbook. The script will also respond to
new entrants with a configurable "Thank you" message. Thus,
there is no need to continually monitor the page. Finally, the application
comes with the capability of "four letter word" filtering
for a child-safe guestbook. You can censor words by adding them to
a list of "bad words."
