I would like to setup a knowledgebase on my website for my program. Unfortunatly, I know very little abou tperl/scripting so don't really know how to make something that worked and looked good. Basicly I am looking for something which is searchable, maybe has catagories, but would then just have pages with the question/issue at the top and the response/solution at the bottom.

If anyone has any pointers to some good (hopefully free) software, I would love to check it out. If it matters, I can setup a mysql databse if one is needed by some software.

Good scripts.

There was one I was thinking of.... but can't find the URL.

Will try again (just emailed myself as a reminder) when I get home.

This is where a wiki might come in handy, actually. Most wikis can be set so that only certain people can edit them, in which case you don't have to worry about others modifying your data.

Problem with most (if not all) wiki's I've seen is that they tend to run up the CPU and RAM for pageviewing...

If you don't need that functionality. It's a real waste of server.
