Every time I try and run a script through the browser I am given an

What am I doing wrong, or what do I need to do.

Sorry. I know this is getting pretty far off topic. But...
I couldn't agree more with the first sentence of this post. Show-off
programming should only be used for entertainment, or not at all.

Nothing wrong with being OVERLY cautious, especially if YOU expect to

So you never manage or program on the box you're using? It's strictly a

I wanted to let everyone that responded know I figured out the problem, and

I think he was just stirring up debate on the lack of my in the latter
