[FX.php List] error 958 parameter missing from query

[William Akey]

Hi Joel,

Thanks. After a bit of research on the web, I have already modified the
charset encoding on the registration form so that it matches what you have
given below:

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

I was hoping that this would cure the problem and I am waiting to see if we
have any more reported failures. The fact that it worked for you and for
Dale is a good sign.

William
