Yes, You need to edit the CGI (the guestbook.pl) in order to modify the appearance of the entries. The thing to understand here, is that guestbook.pl actually edit's the html file that contains the guestbook entries. So, guestbook.pl opens the file polguestbook.html, and reads everything that's in it, into an array. Then, it modifies the information in the array (it adds a new guestbook entry), then it re-writes polguestbook.html back to the disk. If you want to try a little experiment, load the guestbook web page: http://paulowenlewis.com/guestbook/polguestbook.html, and then right click on the page and view page source. Hit F3 (find), and type in --begin
