ginerjm Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Would love to help you out. However, you could make our help easier to obtain if you asked a direct question and pointed us to the code you suspect is the problem. This whole script can't be your problem, so do your debugging and show us what you've found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irate Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 It is a very good practice to wrap all code in [ code ] [ /code ] tags (without the spaces so that it gets parsed correctly). Inline code which doesn't take up much space can be wrapped in [ ic ] [ /ic ] tags (again, without the spaces so that it gets parsed). Examples. // this is a demonstration of the code tag // it features a few comments to make its purpose clear $ic = 'this is some short inline code'; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginerjm Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 We would have helped you if you had helped us by pointing out where you thought the problem was occurring. You were asked. You refused. Who sux now? Go home, grow up, learn to read and write better English. Come back as an adult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
