Hi Joanna

 

Thanks for your reply, but I'm not able to find the ?&gt anywhere in the code?

That's really strange! In swear in your post you told me to look for those characters and replace them with others, but when I posted my last reply and went back your post doesn't tell me to do that at all!

 

Something spooky....

I'm sorry, I edit my last reply to you. but what I'm really saying is

 

" try to copy and paste it to the notepad.

and Save it naming index.php and upload it."

I just tested your code on my test server and it's working. Check the format your uploading the file as, ascii - binary - auto, set it to auto.

[gadgetsgizmos&gifts]

I've just checked the settings in FileZilla and it's set to Auto. Any other ideas?

I've done as you suggested. Copied the code into a new Notepad document, saved it as index.php and uploaded it. But it still doesn't work.

 

Bob has got it to work on his site so I'm still non the wiser as to what the problem is.

 

Any other ideas?
