I am still using php 4.04. I haven't upgraded yet because it seems like a
lot of people are having problems with various things in 4.06. Plus, the
server that hosts my sites is only on 4.04.

Hi Eric,
The issue I suspect is with 4.04 as 4.06 does not seem to suffer from this
problem.

Hugh hit the nail right on the head.
For PHP to function correctly, you need to have a webserver installed.
Well known webservers out there are
www.apache.org <-- Apache
www.imatix.com <-- Xitami
www.microsoft.com <-- IIS *chuckle*

Did you ping port 80 exclusively?
Your ISP has probably blocked port 80 (http) on the clients on the cable net (my ISP
at home (chello.se) does that).
Cable network ISP's don't want anybody to be able to set up their own server (they
wouldn't be able to *squezze* more money out of their customers by providing an
*extra-deluxe* option with webhosting sevice) and they usually block some ports like
80 (http) and 21 (ftp). If you ask them *why* they do it - you probably get the answer
that it is to "protect the customer".
Set your server to use port 88 (just an example you can use 81, 82 ...) and redirect
the dns2go links.
Accessing (using your browser):
http://your-ip-here:88/your-start-page.php
Here are a useful link with some more ports listed.

Hope this help.

I had this same problem with a cable user, what the ISP was doing is blocking
that port, specifically because your a home user, your not supposed to run a
websever. in apache you can edit the file httpd.cont, and change the Port 80
to say port 8080 and then have your users go to your name.d2g.com:8080 and it
will work. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the duplicate message, but in the previous mail, i reffered to
httpd.cont...what i meant was httpd.conf
Goodluck again

Hi,
I have been advised that the homepage http://www.predict.ch/ does not
work with some browser/OS combinations.
The problem seems to be the following code's lines:
$result = mysql_query($sql,$db)
or die("Please check your query and try again");
$db is defined in an included file:
$db = @mysql_pconnect("localhost","xxx","yyy");
@mysql_select_db("predict",$db);
and $sql looks so:
$sql = "SELECT " . $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["language"] . "_title as title, "
.
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["language"] . "_abstract as abstract, " .
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["language"] . "_content as content " .
"FROM news where showIt = 'TRUE' ORDER BY published DESC";
with $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["language"] = table_read("language");
The most visitors get the index.php4 with the query correctly shown. 2
people (Win98 or Millenium/IE 5 or 6beta) get the die procedure:
"Please check your query and try again" and I really do not understand
why. I am really confused and would like to solve this problem.
Could someone help me?
Greetings,
christian
