[FX.php List] error help

Thu Aug 31 08:50:09 MDT 2006

looks like there is still a bunch of blank space... did you use the  
bbedit trick or do it by hand and replace with real return characters?

you have to tediously remove every single itty bitty space character  
including the ones in between code pieces like equals signs and all  
the spaces after semicolons and in the html if you copy pasted that.  
it's really tedious. so if you don't have an automated way of doing  
it you've got to be really precise and thorough.

also, the same goes for the included files.

this probably isn't part of your issue, but, i noticed that you are  
using single quotes in HTML attributes. i'm pretty sure that double  
quotes are required by one standard or other. i recall reading that  
with regards to XHTML or something. sorry i can't be more specific -  
maybe someone else on the list has more detail on why double quotes  
are better for HTML attributes.

to test, can you get any simple PHP page to load? like <? echo "hello  
world"; ?>
if you can, i suggest rebuilding your code below in another file line  
by line...
