    There are BBS sites where you can create a personal bulletin board. You might be able to include one into your site with an iframe (if the BBS allows it, not all do)

    One thing to remember re this embed method is that whilst it scrolls nicely on a desktop or laptop it's just statich on a mobile devise.

    It's hard to feel sorry for them, the younguns should use proper computers.

    Seriously, I don't think it will be a problem in this application and I only expect a few dozen users to drop in. I could be pleasantly surprised.

    Gary's solution is ideal, if I can find an app to plug in there. Any suggestions? This is new territory for me.

    Thanks for your input. ��

    Could you be more specific, Egg? On Android it just scrolls nicely.
