how can I edit a guest book entry

[nanadeb]

some idiot put a gambling spam entry on our church web page guest book... how
can I edit it out and leave all the others?

 

[Jim]

The easy part is going into the guestbook directory and
editing (deleting the offending entries) the
guestbook.html. The hard part (and this is what I am
interested in solving) is to stop this from happening in
the future. I get 2 or 3 entries a week from spammers.

If it's available on the internet, anyone can post to the guest book.

the guest book comes up blank in my directory... If I could "see" and entry I
would know how to erase it... but I have the guest book html for the sign
in... and then the log (which is blank) in my directory, but no where to see
the entry to erase it.
thanks

I went to the guestlog.htm and all there is, is a sentence that says replies
will be inserted here or something like that. I can not see the entry that I
would like to delete.

You need to got to the guestlog.htm on the server, not your own hard disc.
Open the remote site in FrontPage and edit from there.
