I NEED HELP, ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
I used a mod in the resources section. The one which allows us to change the "new" and "pop" text to images and also to add another extra updated images. I followed everything there and am sure there is nothing wrong with the script. I replaced my current links.db file (filled with categories) with an empty link.db file. And an error appears

My nrb-build.cgi file is at
http://www.eshock.org/nph-build.txt


To be precise about the problem, I cleared the db file, and the rest of the categories file in the data directory replacing it with blank ones. I add a few new categories and links, it was successful but when I click on the "build all" link, I was directed to a page saying

"The page cannot be displayed"

So where does the error lies?

Thanx

1. Why do you post the same question twice? Sometimes people need time to reply, so pls be patient. This is a forum of volunteers after all.

2. It is also helpful to add an appropriate title to your posting and not just an unsubstantiated cry for help, all in caps. Wink

Erm..links.db is filled with your links not categories!

What code did you add to change the new/pop to images?

It also appears that you have modded nph-build.cgi...that is likely to be the problem...make sure you follwed the mods instructions correctly.

Yah I would not cry for help any more next time!! HA HA HA.

Anyway, I did the changes that the mod http://goodstuff.orphanage.com/new_updated_mod.html stated in its documentation.

Here are the other 3 files I edited:

1) links.txt (links.def)
2) template.txt (site_html_templates.pl)
3) build.txt (nph-build.cgi)

Thanx
