I had my DB almost fully setup, then something happened... when I search, it comes back as a failed search, with ~~~~ in one of my search fields. I just can't understand why it won't work. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,

Adam Reynolds

If you need the code for my search or result form, let me know and I'll get it on here.

It sounds like you database may be corrupted. This could happen by not having your fields numbered consecutively in your .cfg file.

It can also cause problems if your html_record_form doesn't have each and every field listed, either as a visible or hidden field. If you make changes, you have to also change the database file.

If you can't find the problem after checking your .cfg file, you will want to save a copy of both your .cfg and html.pl file as .txt files and provide a link to both .txt files so they can be viewed online.

Lois, having every field listed as either visible or hidden didn't work. I have posted the default.cfg file in text [http://cavalierairlines.virtualave.net/default.txt] and html.pl in text [http://cavalierairlines.virtualave.net/html.txt]. Thanks for your help!

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I was out of town for a memorial service.

I tried to access your file and apparently virtualave is having problems again so I could not view your file. I will check the forum again later tonight and try again.
