ask_rave 0.9.1b Release Candidate 2

So... what does ask_rave do?

You're about to download a simple, lightweight and free question and answer script, also known as an ask and answer script. It allows your visitors to ask the webmaster any question they need answering. In particular, ask_rave is designed to be asthetically pleasing, and mechanically sound. It also doesn't require a database, which is handy.

Give me a reason why I should use it!

• It's free!
  That's right. You don't have a pay a penny. All I ask for is a link back. If you're using it for commercial purposes, you will need to contact me first: but usually there isn't a problem with free commerical usage either.
• Themes
  Intergrate it with your website with ease. Using iframes? No problem, we've got a theme for you. Wamt to make a custom theme? That's easy too!
• Flat File
  What does this mean? You don't need a database to run it! It's all done in text files.
• One Minute Install
  Upload. Run install. Delete file. Go.
• Pages
  Got 1000 questions? Don't have a stream of text, group them together into pages with ask_rave.
• Email Alerts
  Want to know exactly when you have a question to answer? Get it emailed to you in seconds.
• Emoticons
  Over 20 installed already, but built in support for others to be added!

Got any screenshots?

Standard theme: the fully functional asthetically pleasing theme.

The transparent theme in use in conjunction with iframes.

The plain theme, ideal for editing for your own website needs.

What will I need?

• A PHP enabled webserver. Nearly all paid hosting gives you this. Most free hosting won't.
• A text editor.
• An FTP client (or similar).
