If you want to make a high-quality shoutbox, the techniques you must be good at are HTML/CSS (for the design, obviously), PHP/MySQL (for saving and displaying shouts) and AJAX (or better to say Javascript - to avoid refreshing the page all the time). With all these, it is quite simple. Make a PHP script that saves shouts to the MySQL database, and send data to it through AJAX. Make another one for displaying shouts, and again use AJAX for communication with the server - you will probably want to refresh the shoutbox every 15 seconds or so, so that's another AJAX function. Of course, don't forget to keep security in mind! Make those script so that they can't be abused in any way.
