Hmm. Still trouble. It seems that even after I did a qyery:
UPDATE page SET author='5' where author='18'
there are still a lot of fields that have author=18.
Why can this be??????? I'm realy shocked. I can only find those fields when
I do a query like this:
Select * from page where up='41'
I get a lot of pages with author = 18. These do not show up if I do:
select * from page where author='18'
WHY???
I'm in deap shit here, does anyone know what is wrong?
