at the moment you have to delete an entry and re-enter it. An EDIT function has now been added ! - I keep seeing this line (or similar):
"Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/vhosts/boco-test.rootschat.net/sit-main.php on line xxx"
Have I broken it ?
No, you have not broken it, but this is definitely an error. Please let me know (copy and paste it into a 'Reply' on this topic) along with any details of what you were doing when it appeared, so I can sort it out.One instance of this I call the O'Crikey Syndrome - Names with an apostrophe (O'Connel, O'Mara, etc) produced this error.
