Guestbook 1.51 - Cannot add entry because...  XML
Forum Index » Support Forum

I installed the guestbook and it worked fine...

I began to edit the layouts for the generated pages, and everything worked fine...

All of a sudden, it started giving me the error:
Cannot add entry to guestbook the html tag
<option value="guestbook.htm">Guestbook</option>
was not found in some guestbook files.

... Now, why is it doing this? lol.

It doesn't seem to be able to generate "page 2" (etc) of the guestbook sig's.

I went through all my "guestbook files" and checked for the tag it says it cannot find... The tag _is_ there.

Which "guestbook file(s)", in particular, is it talking about?

Any ideas on how to fix this?

In advance, thank you _so_ much!

It's the template file.

Well, the problem is not my template file... The req'd html tag is in there. It is also in the guestbook and addentry html page files.

Here's some more detail about the problem, as I neglected to explain it better in my last post:

When I set $entries to whatever-number, the script will "add entry", but _only_ up to that number.

The script is supposed to "make an add'l page", for all guestbook entries exceeding the defined number (eg entries 1-25 on pg 1, and entries 26-50 on pg 2, etc). However, instead of doing this, it is simply not allowing new entries at all.

Because I am having trouble with this, I lowered the $entries number to two, for test purposes. If you would like, you can go test it:
Guestbook ~ www.boopsie.net/classy/guest/

Also, here are links to all the other files:
Script ~ www.boopsie.net/classy/guest/guestbook.txt
Templ ~ www.boopsie.net/classy/guest/template.htm
AddEntry ~ www.boopsie.net/classy/guest/addentry.htm

And if you need to view the admin area:
www.boopsie.net/cgi-bin/classy/guest/guestbook.pl?admin=enter
Pass ~ 123

Again, thank you in advance,

Cannot add entry to guestbook because the html tag

<option value="index.htm">Guestbook</option>
was not found in some guestbook files.

I had this problem and realized that the </option> tag was missing. I think my HTML editor (Adobe GoLive) had stripped the code out when I copied and pasted in layout mode.
