I can't seem to add to the database! When I try to list all, all I get is a blank page. I get the same blank page when I try to add, modify, etc. I manually put data in the default.db file with the '|' delimiters and did the chmod 666 for the file. Still won't work. What am I doing wrong?

Could be a problem with your $db_key setting.

That would be my first guess without looking at your scripts.

I used the 'ID' field as just like the demo. I put it as the last field though, does that matter? I also changed the default.count to another number. Do any of these matter?

this is the error message I got:
CGI ERROR
==========================================
Error Message : fatal error: Can't locate object method "Email" via package "Address" at ./html.pl line 270.

Script Location : db.cgi
Perl Version : 5.00404

Thanks for any suggestions..

Ah. So you got an error message. Well, that tells me a lot.

From the error, my thought is that somewhere you have used

&Email

when you needed to use

$Email

You might want to copy your html.pl file into an accessible directory -- one where you would put your html files -- and rename it so it has a .txt extension. Then come back here and tell us where it is and we'll take a look at it.

Thanks. I'll get back to you later.
I think I'll need to start from step 1...
