In the previous chapter, we have seen how to display comments, but this would of course be useless if there wasn't a way for your readers to post their comments. So we need now to create a "Post a comment" form, which will be included on the "Entry main page" template.

So the name, email and website tags would look like this:

<input type="text" name="name" value="!!authname!!" />

<input type="text" name="email" value="!!authemail!!" />

<input type="text" name="website" value="!!authwebsite!!" />

You will also need to add a "Remember me" html checkbox, which is displayed using the following code:

<input type="checkbox" name="remember" !!ischecked!! /> Remember my info

Important note:

The <form action="!!action!!" method="post"> line, the <input type="text" name="name" /> line,
and the <textarea name="combody"></textarea> line must be placed on the form template for the form to work properly.

To insert this form into the "Entry main page", simply add the !!comform!! variable:
