Okay. That's good.

Hmph. Okay.

Go here: ftp://www.asd.k12.ak.us/ and get the binhex file called
"forerika.hqx". It's got the 3.5 manual in PDF. It's not searchable or
anything, but it's printable! :)

>>The other thing that will make that error show up 

[...snip...]

><INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Category" VALUE="News Release">

Those look okay, assuming that all the files are where they are supposed to
be. Do the files in the "-response" and "-addError" fields exist where they
should?

>(probably not.  it doesn't seem too helpful...)

No, that's your administration page, and it is helpful for many things, like
your security settings. :)

Some more questions:

1. Have you tried rebooting the server? That will sometimes fix this, and
since this is a brand new problem with pages that were previously working,
it might help.

2. Have you tried a different browser? (Netscape 3?!)

3. What is the action on your form set to? The response file listed in your
error message was "go.lasso" and the response file you show above is
"add_release-reply.html".

4. Does the database insert happen despite getting the error message?
