Default installing Fantastico applications

As I'm a beginner in website hosting design, I'm also a beginner in managing the cpanel, so please forgive me for the next very basic question.

Once I've the layout of a page ready, how do I connect it to the application offered in Fantastico?

Let's take an example: I have the link for a Forum on my webpage and I need to make it active with the phpBB found on Fantastico. I can see the option "install", but:
  1. what's the correct procedure for installing the application on the server?
  2. Is it better to create a directory or let the installer do the job?
  3. Then, how do I make the link on the webpage and the application communicate?
  4. Do such applications (like forums, guestbooks or surveyors) automatically create their own database, or I have to do it?

thank you in advance for your support
