Done as I'm gonna do

Well, I have a website and all the documentation. What I don't have is ANY working interactive functionality and I've completely run out of time. :-(

One of the problems I ran into on the Forum (phpBB) plugin I wanted to use was the permission settings on the UTS student server, it wouldn't let me write to a group of files (in the phpBB folder) that I needed to in order to get the thing to work. Alastair kindly set me up an account on another server which DID have the right permissions but, Murphy's Law, the connection spent the entire weekend timing out (grr).

I'd have to echo Lisa's sentiments on this, I've learnt a lot and even though this site is a big fat fail (feel like I should put a # there - too much time on Twitter) in my eyes, I'm looking forward to developing these skills on slightly more realistic projects in the near future.

So enough with the ramble, here's my final submission...
