Is this really a code to make your own guestbook? How does it work? Do entries really get posted on the site?

You want to change the color of the input boxes and textarea? This is what to use:

<form method=post action="http://members.signmyguestbook.com/edit/sign">
Your Name: <input type="text" name="signername" size="18" style="background-color:#0033ff;"> <BR>
Your E-mail: <input type="text" name="email" size="18" style="background-color:#0033ff;"><BR>
Your Homepage/Website: <input type="text" name="url" size="36" value="http://" style="background-color:#0033ff;"><BR>
Your Message:<BR>
<textarea name="message" ROWS="10" COLS="36" wrap="virtual" style="background-color:#0033ff;"></TEXTAREA><BR>
<input type=hidden name="username" value="scrapmagic">
<input type=submit value="Submit"></P>
</FORM>

looks like you would need access to the ASP that is working the entries portion.
