Can I create a sort of form where people leave replies and comments to things I post on my website with DHE? |

You mean like a blog or guestbook?
No, not possible in DHE itself but you can very easily integrate external blog or guestbook pages. |

You can make a free (or paid) guestbook at smartgb.com and the insert in your page with an iframe.
Like I did here:

Okay, I may use Smartgb..I'm not sure yet, because I'm created my own submit box and all. This is what I have:
<*form action="http://HellaaProductions.com/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">
<fieldset> <legend id="respond"><Font color="White">Leave a Comment!</font></legend>
<p><input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="" size="15" tabindex="1" /> <label for="author"><small><font color="White">Name</font> </small></label></p>
<p><input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="" size="15" tabindex="2" /> <label for="email"><small><font color="white">Email (will not be published)</font></small></label></p>
<p><input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="" size="15" tabindex="3" />
<!--<p><small><strong>XHTML:</strong> You can use these tags: <code><a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote cite=""> <cite> <code> <del datetime=""> <em> <i> <q cite=""> <strike> <strong> </code></small></p>-->
<p><textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="50%" rows="5" tabindex="4"></textarea></p>
<p><input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" tabindex="5" value="Submit Comment" /> <input type="hidden" name="comment_post_ID" value="15" /> </p> </fieldset> </form*> If I have this form, will the comments automatically appear on my page or do I need to make an HTML script them as well? If I do, will I have to manually put in every comment I recieve? And would I use the HTML too to do this? |

i think you need something to tell the server what to do with the comments--like where to put them
Why reinvent the wheel[when you should be practicing guitar]--Smartgb looks good.. take a look at this which may be more feature rich...

Okay, so I used the Js-kit and I love how it is over all but I have no idea how to modify because I'm a moron... |

Agreed hehe
I posted it because I thought it was more like what you were looking for,but I have never tried it --although I just might.
What is it you are want to do exactly?--change the style/look of it to blend into your site better?
see #8 here [look at them all too]
http://js-kit.com/comments/faq.html
or post a question here...

I read those, but I'm such a moron when it comes to the simplest things instead of the other way around. xD I just want to change the color of the text, such as "Name" & etc because its too dark to see on my page. |

Us the "Input Control" to insert your form where you would like then its properties panel to set it up. You will have to provide some information yourself. I suggest you locate a good tutorial and setting up forms to help you if you need it. |

I don/t know if jtarin is talking about JS-kit or a regular form you create in DHE
I think you need to post a question or "comment" on their site. You are not the only one with that question.
http://js-kit.com/comments/qa.html
There is this, but I do not know where the css file is located.
http://js-kit.com/comments/custom.html#custom
There is no real search feature on their site to find an answer[that I can fine anyway]. On that first link above there is a box at the top of the comments that says control--that is where you search I guess.
There is a pgf help file too.Not the easiest thing to find!!!
