What is the error?

 

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare replace() (previously declared in /home/a7749307/public_html/forum/topic.php:169) in /home/a7749307/public_html/forum/topic.php on line 169

thats the error

to see it http://k-rs.co.uk/forum/topic.php?id=9

My guess would be "Cannot redeclare function replacesmiley()" move the smiley function out of the while() loop.

 

EDIT: OP beat me to it.
