Cheers Gregg

I still dont know whats wrong. I've changed something ( I cant remember what! ) and now when you go to the IP address it loads the content.PHP file which is the main section but fails to load the other framesets, IE mainmenu.htm & logo.htm. Its as if its bypassing the index file for some reason. Insidentally there is an index.htm file which Ive tried renaming to index.html to but still no joy

You know, heres me thinking Im good and I cant belive Ive messed this simple thing up - Im going home to spend the evening with Jack Daniels & hopefully attack the problem with a fresh head!

If anyones got anymore ideas, feel free....Id love to hear them & really appreciate the help

Right before line 38, add the following line:

echo "INCLUDING: " . $fileloc . "inc/displayposts.php" . "\n";

this will output to the browser what exact file it is trying to get. Whenever you do and include, sql statement, or anything else that "should work" but isn't, that uses a variable, always display the variable before the line with the error. Usually for me on SQL statements, that is where i will notice something didn't format the way i thought it did when piecing together variable/strings.

yeah understood about that, there wasnt a HTaccess file though originally. All Ive been doing is manually altering CSS files . The error points to line 38 in a PHP file. The line reads this

include($fileloc . "inc/displayposts.php");

The error to me, is saying it cannot open displayposts.php for some reason, but its there & the paths correct!

Oh dear

Do you have an .htaccess file? I suppose it's possible that changes elsewhere makes the system interpret the .htaccess file differently. Kind of far-fetched, but I would start by checking the .htaccess file, if you have one.

If you don't have one, you might create one. Just create a document using Notepad or some other plain text editor and save it as .htaccess

I believe the only line you would need would be the following:

DirectoryIndex index.htm
