Hello everyone. K, I got the script working (for the most part) and I first need to password protect the administration program. With the htaccess script I use, it password protected the whole directory....this worked until I tried building the pages...then it said authentication error under CGI ERROR. So, I took off the password protection and tried again. It says something very similar (if not the same...it very well could be)...maybe you can help me decode what's happening ----snippet---->
