Have you recently edited any of these files?

Per Amber222:
Make sure there are no blank lines before or after the code or at the end of the document. Many html and text editors will insert blank lines, which I why I edit files in my ftp program or CPanel's File Manager. Note: An ftp program that does not have its own editor but uses Notepad may also cause this problem.

I'm not Amber - I just directed you to the post by Amber - the answer is there.

I don't see anything right off hand in your script - maybe someone else will? What, if anything, did you edit in that file?

Did you edit the lang/spanish.php?

Make certain to not have any empty/blank lines after the ?> at the end of the scripts. I believe that is what Amber is explaining.

Sorry ET...I realised that when I sent the reply...ops..

Anyway....Yes, I edited my lang/Spanish.php

Here is the script...Can anyone see anything wrong?

Okay - so you have checked to make certain that there are not extra lines before <?php and none after ?> - right?

What lines did you edit so that I know where to look for errors - I'm not going to waste my time looking thru each and every line for potential errors if you did not edit all the lines....

Hi ET, I have singled out the lined I have edited, they are: (I pretty much, just added some english text with in the ""....Thanx

In that 'really' big post, at the end there is this...

Try changing it to...

Also, in the lang file...

Try changing to...

Thanks for pointing those out - I don't see any errors in the modifications.

What I would recommend that you do is to download the original AG script again - save it into a different folder on your harddrive so that you have the original version onhand that you don't modify. Then upload that original spanish.php version back into the lang folder on your website to see if the error continues.

Essentially, we are just in problem solving mode at this point since you are certain that there are no spaces in the files before <?php and after ?> .... Sorry that it's not an immediate solution - I know how frustrating it can be.

Thanks Guys...(ET & Auron)

I did mods as per Auron and although it didn't completely fix the problem (errors still there) at least comment can be posted..(Thanx Auron)

Have a try adding a comment on an existing message...

http://rinconwebdesign.com/guestbook/index.php

See what I mean?...

Anyone has any other suggestions..? apart from "starting from scatch?"...

Thanx

I tried to add a comment and still got the error....
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/rincon/public_html/guestbook/lang/spanish.php:107) in /home/rincon/public_html/guestbook/lib/comment.class.php on line 175

Did you try reinstalling the original version of spanish.php file without your edits to see it it would work?

Thanks ET...I can see your comment in my GB...

No I haven't tried reinstalling the original version of spanish.php file without my edits yet...might give that a go a bit later...Il just try to brainstorm a bit more before I do that...

Any other suggestions?

No other suggestions based on what we have - given that the error I got still leads back to the spanish.php file - It is my assumption that the problem is there. I do have a question though....

What type of editor do you use when editing the spanish.php file?

Thanx ET..you have been a great help and given me a few ideas..

I edit the files via my hosting company Control Panel

Editor in the Control Panel - That might be what is causing the problem.

Have you normally used the control panel editor to modify your php scripts/pages without any problems?
